sorry that i had to make a new thread for this, but i was looking at espn's nba page and it has an article on yao ming but you have to have espn insider to access it. Can anyone paste the article onto this forum??? Thanks
it's not really an artice, just a chat transcript. Rickey (Houston): With all of the transactions that the Rockets did during the offseason can they really overtake the Spurs and win the championship. SportsNation Ric Bucher: Not even. They filled some holes on paper, but JVG has his work cut out for him. Stro Swift doesn't have a lot of fans among GMs because he doesn't play hard every night. That makes him a younger version of Kelvin Cato. Derek Anderson will have to buy into JVG's approach to defense. Big question if he can after all those years foundering in Portland. On a positive note, I just talked with someone who had dinner with Yao in Shanghai a few days ago. Says his arms are genormous. Good sign that his upper body could be as strong as his lower.
