    Who thinks Yao's arms are catching up to his legs? He is just filling out nicely.

    Those pictures are a great advertisement for Pepsi. If only Yao had a big Coke logo on him...

    Yao does look like Shaq. The guy on the right is Joe Vogel, a 6'11" PF for Lebanon, much taller than Kidd or Barry. Yi (11 for China) is 7' or 7'1"!

    the verdict is in ::

    he looks like Kidd, fellas.

    That guy was a former draft pick (No.46 in '96 by the Sonics).

    Wow, Yao looks great. Get ready to hear all the NBA pundits and announcers comment on how much he has bulked up. In his first couple of years everyone was saying he would get better as he got bigger, I can't wait.

    Damn, Yao is starting to look very tough. In this shot, he looks to be in the best shape I've seen him in since he joined the Rockets. Falsone deserves kudos, and Yao does as well, for clearly taking advantage of the opportunity, at last, to really work on strength and conditioning during the summer. It shows, no question about it!

    I'm really, really pumped about the production he'll have this season. He's going to make a major leap forward, in my opinion, instead of the slow, steady progression I've resigned myself to see every year.

    Fellow Rockets lovers, we are on the launch pad, fueled and ready for liftoff! :cool:

    i kinda think the lebanese guy on the right looks more like Nomar Garciaparra !
    I guess it's the nose. ;)
