    I have seen Ming play in person and I will say this he can bang with the international crowd but in the Nba just another Wang

    Rockets will not waste there pick on this guy
    His english skills lack which could be a do or die mistake made in a very important game.

    He has a very nice hook shot but extremely awkward when it comes to motion and ball handling.

    Any scout will tell you he is overrated.

    Ming in pinstripes won't happen.

    The question isn't will they use their pick...but will they go out of their way to trade up.

    overrated??? any scout??? What does Ash say?

    Whether he wants to go to the NBA or not, it's not his decision unfortunately...

    yao ming plays for the shanghai sharks

    wang played for the bayi rockets (the team he's competing against) who are current champions for last few years

    i forget when the cba started but i do know the chinese were enamored with olajuwon and his championship teams and possibly is the reason why bayi got many good players



    i don't know where troy and ottoman come up with this stuff.. if they've seen him play, they will not say he's like wang or shawnbradley. even wang ain't that bad... he's the making of a taller yet less mobile hedo or somin in his first year.

    yao will learn and learn fast
    no, i don't know the guy personally but he just has that desire

    it was shanghi rockets right?

    I love the idea of getting Ming. maybe he'll bring some chinese women into the compaq center. i love chinese women, especially when they're giving me a massage and say oooooh rocketbooster you big anaconda.


    Go Ming!

    If we get Ming that would be great, but I get the sense that if we do not you would be very disappointed. Not me, I saw clear and present evidence last night that this squad is on its way and any two lalented players picked in the draft would be fine with me. Personally I want Stoudamire and anybody else, preferably, an even bigger body.

    Ming is OVERRATED Rockets are not gonna try to get him unless its to get him for another team for a player they want.

    I know lets get wang and rebuild some more because not only would he be a stranger to this team but to the aspects of american ball.

    Just look at wang at times he appears lost out there but makes one shot and the crowd goes wild.

    If Dunleavy is available when the rockets pick I can bet you they will go after him.

    Watching that Mavs game I started to think back to the season before Dream where we basically gave up the game against them to get the first pick.I know it was great we got Dream, but perhaps karma went against us because we didn't take Jordan.Now you and I both are happy with the overall outcome, but maybe since we fought to win last night, karma will help us this time to get the first pick and get the right guy.Never can tell!

    WOW...you must have SOME scouting report. One perhaps that no one on the planet has. If you are telling me that you believe Dunleavy would better suit our needs than Ming would (or anyone else's for that matter) you are smoking some good sh*t man. I could pick my teeth with Dunleavy, not to mention he isn't coming out this year.

    By the way...who in the hell EVER compared Ming to Wang? NOBODY!!! Im curious to know what Wang's per game averages were in China as compared to Mings. I bet they dont even come close.

    My thumbs would be high in the air if we could get Ming. However, if we do, then we should try to sign FA ZZ Wang for two reasons: providing Ming a comfort level and ensuring the Chinese government will let Ming go because they will see a near resurrection of the "Great Wall of China" team.

    Besides, wouldn't you like to see the expressions of other teams trying to figure out what they are shouting to each other on a pick and roll? Thumbs up to that!
