    Nice.

    Yao said that if he misses 5 out of 10 free throws, he'd call it QUITS.

    Maybe it's just me, or the pictures, but Yao looks lighter. His legs usually look stockier than that.

    Let's hope Yao stays thinnner, and keeps that svelte look, his feet need it.

    His right leg looks normal, its his left leg that looks noticeably skinnier than his right.

    You're right, one leg is also smaller than the other, which is something that I'm not sure you can tell from these pictures. Les said the same thing, so you're right.

    Not surprising at all considering one left was entirely immobile for a very long period of time.

    But I'm sure people will freak out about Yao's conditioning anyway.

    I totally Agree with you, I think he has lost some weight.

    No question about it. We've heard that was the case right now, but it's nice to have pictures of it. Yao needs to have them "even" before the season! Love seeing how much lighter the rest of him is, however. That's good news. A bit more quickness and, more importantly, less weight on those feet.

    Kudos to the OP.

    I can see that both legs look skinnier but i can't see one skinnier than the other.

    And Yao's haircut is bad for his image, it makes him less imposing and more vulnerable because he no longer has the fire of the lion in his eyes with his hair so short.

    And Steve Francis and T-Mac were definitely back in shape after all those pictures showed them working out and losing weight.
