Hopefully this will allow the rockets to run more pick and rolls with T-mac/Wesley and Yao. When Yao starts hitting that 10-15 foot jumper it should give the Rockets a good option to go to late in games (something that was successful with Francis and Yao last year). It might even reduce the number of offensive fouls/turnovers that Yao has.
Man I wish Yao was like Forest Gump. If he were: everytime we tell him to keep the ball high he Will Do It. everytime we tell him to Dunk the ball -instead of weak layup- he Will Do It. Everytime we tell to not jump but attempt the block he Will Do It. Unfortunately everytime somebody tells him to jump off a bridge he Will Do It.
Are you implying Yao rebound RELATIVELY better offensively. If that's the case, it probably means he is more willing to box out his own man than fighting with his teammates for rebounds. And in no way do I imply Yao is an excellent rebounder either.
