    I for one am happy to hear this news. Hopefully he'll have a hard cast, crutches, a wheelchair, and a bone stimulator. It'll be best to have him as healthy as possible, particularly since he'll likely be picking up that 2010-11 option.

    I wonder what Yao thinks of his basketball prospects long term wise.

    Given the past few years, I think it really might just be best for Yao to retire. I love the guy, and don't want to see him crippled when he turns 40 just for a couple of more seasons in the NBA.

    Too bad. We expected it though. Lets just do our best this season, I think our team will really surprise us. We could very well still make the playoffs, given it wont be the number 1 or 2 seed, but we still have a chance. Lets just look forward to season 2010-2011 when Yao should be back a better than ever, and potentially get another star... Bosh, Wade?

    This will give some of our younger guys a chance to work in a completely different offense, I bet it will be entertaining to watch.

    Please, get us a legit center. Scola/Hayes are not centers.

    McGrady is going to be so pissed.

    Good luck Yao.

    Don't forget the bad defense and lack of desire to rebound at times...

    It's time to call it quits, if Yao is out for the whole season.

    One season of this :

    Replace Robinson with Yao Ming, and Duncan with a Morey top draft pick.
    We might get a seson of this:
