    Great article. Finally some acknowledgement that Yao was the best center in the league last year and that his improvement has been a steady since he arrived in the NBA - it isn't something that just happened this season. Excellent article.

    Isn't this the same guy who several weeks back said yao's personality will prevent him from becoming great?

    I don't think it's the same guy. Looks like MSNBC posted this one to make up for that blunder.

    "After a win over Memphis last month, Yao recalled a failed attempt by McGrady to set up an alley-oop pass. Yao smiled and held up his thumb and forefinger, a couple of inches apart.

    "I have to remind Tracy that this is how high I jump," he said."


    Gotta love Yao. :)

    Hmmmm who's that Sun Ming guy? Maybe Yao can bring him in as our third-string center.
