    The number 10 guy was talking trash, and bumped his chest to Yao, Yao stared at him right in the eye and pushed him back on the chest, the next thing you know it, the buy was on the floor. hahaha :)

    There are some websites that have been added to the cuss-filter so you can't link to them. Usually, it is in retaliation for someone who registered here just to pimp their own sites.

    I know its only New Zeland but, wow, 15-20 is a pretty good shooting percentage. Whats odd is the Chinese team shot 1-11 from behind the 3pt line...just horrible. Yao had no assists or blocks, and had 5 TOs. Kind of weird, but it's obvious he offensively dominated the game.

    i guess its now safe to say that the only reason yao had a bad game against spain was because he was scared of the hairy monster that was guarding him.

    Basketball: China's Yao Takes Anger Out on New Zealand


    By Alan Crosby


    ATHENS (Reuters) - An angry Yao Ming took his frustrations out on New Zealand at the Olympic men's basketball tournament on Tuesday, pouring in 39 points as China beat the Kiwis 69-62.


    The 23-year-old Yao, who at 2.29 meters (7 ft 6 in) is the tallest man in Olympic history, was so disappointed when China lost their opening match to Spain that he threatened to retire from international play.

    But Tuesday's performance, which included 13 rebounds, should go a long way to changing the feelings of the Houston Rockets' all-star.


    "He's not going to retire. When you interview a player right after a very bad performance, not giving him time to rest a bit, he might say something he doesn't really mean," said coach Del Harris, a NBA veteran who was brought in to prepare the Chinese team with an eye on the 2008 Beijing Olympics.


    Forward Phillip Jones led New Zealand with 23 points but the team as a whole had a poor effort from the field, hitting only 23 of 66 shots.


    "Too much Yao, not enough outside shooting," said San Antonio Spurs forward Sean Marks.


    In other preliminary round action, Australia beat Angola 83-59 and Puerto Rico came back to earth, losing to Lithuania 98-90 in their first game since propelling the United States to their first Olympic defeat since 1988.


    Puerto Rico's Utah Jazz guard Carlos Arroyo and the rest of the team could not find the same magic against a powerful Lithuania.


    Arroyo had 25 points, as did team mate Elias Ayuso, but the Puerto Rican bench provided little more.


    "I don't think we came out with less energy (than against the U.S.). We didn't get back on defense and they took advantage of running us. They have great shooters and they took advantage of that the whole game," Arroyo said.


    Ramunas Siskauskas led Lithuania with 23 points, while Arvydas Macijauskas had 19 and Sarunas Jasikevicius had 18 and seven assists.

    Yao was playing like a total stranger to me yesterday. He run down the court, someone tried to step into his way, and he just pushed that guy to ground and rush straight to the basket. He even initiated some bumps with the sole purpose of sending opponents to the floor. Way to go, Yao!

    Is this the guy that gets a shoving from Yao? If not, he should have been.
