That's probably only the saddest moment today. Seeing him cheering from the tunnel just about broke my heart. Like Moses not quite making it to the promised land (as a Rockets player, anyway).
Man no matter what the man will always be a member of this team and will always be treated as such. Seeing Deke smile and hug Yao after winning this series is as good as winning the Championship in my eyes. God bless him.
Congs to Deke! He has been the spirit leader of this team, and no need to say his 100% concentration to the games when Yao needs some rest.
get well soon, big uncle(how the fans in China call Deke, he is like everyone's big uncle, big man with bigger heart), I am sure Deke was really proud of this team, go rockets, BEAT LA lol
