    there is something about his fadeaway jumper, it's just so smooth. if you see it, you know it's yao ming. maybe big kids in the future will copy that move. man, that move is awesome.

    I agree it looks smoother than my butt all waxed. I like how after he turns around all he does is just flick his wrist and the ball swishes through. He doesn't even need to move his elbow or anything, just that wrist.

    i think it is the most ugly movement in the league. it is shame to use fadeaway jump for that height.

    Yeah~ U've got a point there

    Dirk should be ashamed to shoot that many jumpers with his height, he should play like shaq just get in there a crash everything.

    Magic is a loser too, he plays like a small guy and did not dunk much with his height advantage.

    And Bird? The most soft big man in NBA ever! He only knows how to shot, that's it!

    a signature could be beautiful or.ugly....as long as it works...
    BTW, since u can keep up to 50%+ with fadeaways...I see no reason for any change

    Yao's fade away is like Kevin James' dancing ability in Hitch.

    "You caaaaaaaan't stop it."

    why all you guys think fadeaway shoot is beautiful? only when M.Jordan(sometimes Kobe) do that, i would agree. for others, just ugly.
