    I cannot believe that Bateer only got four points.

    First test:
    Yao 25 points, 11 rebounds and 7 seven blocks in 26 minutes.

    Second test:
    Yao 19 points in a shorter time.

    Did I just read that correctly? The "Burger King Tall Blacks"??

    Is Shaq on their team, or something?

    The New Zealend rugby team is known as the "All Blacks" because their uniforms are all black, I'm assuming the "Tall Blacks" is taken from that. Or they have a team of five Shaq's, either one.

    29 points against five Shaq-clones? Wow! And some people were worried what Ming would do against just one... :D

    What is with Yao continuting to lose jump balls to this guy Book who is 6'11"? Is Yao even jumping?

    I'm also a bit concerned about any front line with Yao giving up 19 offensive boards to a team like New Zealand ...

    Of course, I still say we pick him unless Brand is in the deal. :D
