Hopefully, you're out of surgery by now but still able to enjoy the last few moments of anesthetics. The road to recovery is gonna be long, but you are strong and you have the shoulders of millions of fans to lean on when you're in need. We hope to see you soon.
Get better soon Yao! When you come back next year, we'll be in prime position to win it all. (assuming we don't do that this year. )
Yao got a loud roar from the crowd yesterday when they showed a hightlight vid of him imploring the crowd to get up and get loud in the fourth quarter. Even a few players from both benches looked up. He is very much loved here in Houston. Hope you have a troublefree surgery and recovery.
Definitely, all the best wishes for a successful surgery and recovery. Here's to hoping the surgeons apply the screws to you perfectly so when you come back next season you will apply the screws perfectly to the whole league.
