    As Yao played good performance these days I still remember the game Rox VS Dallas. It seem that Yao felt uncomfortalbe with being with Shawn Bradley, who was as high as him, 7-6. Yao could't overcame the gap still. And there is a bad news coming: Russian center Pavel Podkolzine(7-4) is lurking in Magic's draft. Maybe Yao will encounter more and more Yao killers at the future. Even Yao-like is a terrific word for the future Rookie.

    He had one bad game against Bradley, and he destroyed him in the other games.

    By the way, Yao didn't steal stuff from Mo and Eddie.. its TALL not HIGH.

    The only time Bradley gave him problems was when the team was still struggling with the zone defences and fronting. The couple times they actually managed to pass it to Yao, Bradley was able to poke it away. I doubt it happens again, because Yao is a pretty fast learner.

    I also doubt that Yao is losing any sleep over someone who's not even in the league yet.

    Shawn Bradley stop Yao Ming? Bwahaahaahahahahaha!!!!!

    If the Mavericks dared to defend Yao with just Bradley, at this point it wouldn't be much different than Bradley against Shaq.

    1st play: Back it down, back it down, back it down, dunk.
    2nd play: Seal him off, get the dunk and a foul.
    3rd play: Back it down, turn and fire the 10 footer.

    At this point, I can see Cuban running onto the court and firing Nelson. Shaq may be the only center who has a chance of stopping Yao one on one.

    Many kids posting from China do not really know what being "high" means. The Chinese word corresponding to "high" has nothing to do with the type of "high" that people get by using drug ...

    Bradley on Yao one on one:
    Walton commentating:

    "Yao with a gorgeous drop step, boom....shagalakalalak............just poverized Bradley once again. Give me a break, Bradley can't guard Yao one on one, what is Nelson thinking. Yao is only the most dominating center that's playing the game today. "

    yeah~Thanks now I get it. I should use "tall" instead of. BTW, what a terrible game tonite is. Even none of them as tall as Yao is in Heat, Rocket lose. Wang, another Chinese center in Heat know told another Gundy how to beat Yao. Thats another way to be a Yao killer

    you're seriously underestimating NBA's scouting and coaching, mate. no NBA team needs Wang's advices on how to defend Yao. the defensive tactics used agains Yao in CBA don't work in NBA. and even in CBA, I don't recall Wang's team BaYi used to be able to stop Yao.
