    Like they said earlier I can definetely see Steve dunking on (or at least trying to) Yao in more of a playfull manner. If he does he'll probably hug Yao or pat him on the back after he does it.

    No, he was correct, but it was three seasons ago. Francis tried to dunk on Dampier and got his shot blocked and injured his shoulder. That was the last time I saw him try to dunk on a big guy.

    Here's the ESPN quote:

    Francis injured the shoulder trying to dunk over Golden State's Erick Dampier on March 8. He insisted on playing in pain for the rest of the season because he missed so much of the first half, but the only thing the Rockets want to see from Francis this summer is his signature on a long-term contract extension.

    steve aint dunkin on Yao. Yao will swat that ****e outta there. besides Francis gotta worry bout gettin pass T-mAC first.


    the reason Yao gets dunk on more is cause the man got heart and actually tries to contest every attempt unlike a certain fat outta shape soon to be ex Laker.

    It's easy for Yao not to be dunked on. He should just look away when someone is ready to slam the ball. Too bad he has the heart to contest every single shot.

    Steve doesn't dunk as much as he did even 2 years ago....

    Yao is getting better, and Steve is getting worse.

    In 5 years Steve will be done, and Yao will be a hero.

    I agree with DD that SF dunks less and less in recent years, and even he is back to his old style next year, I doubt he will do that to Yao because he is too nice and they are really good friends.

    Meanwhile, I can't wait to see Kobe takes every opportunities to serve Shaq facial next season.:D

    Should be fun.
