"Yes, the No. 1 pick in the 2002 draft has yet to win a postseason series. And yes, technically he can't make any more than he already does, since his contract is maxed out through the 2010-11 season. Still, he's a relative bargain considering 32 players make more than the league's premier center. Yao is giving Houston about 26 points (on 53 percent shooting), nine rebounds and two blocks a game."
Yeah, until the new contract gets signed. Negotiations oughta be pretty easy. "How much do you want?" "What's the max?" "Yeah, I thought so. Here, we've already drawn it up."
