    I like that in the canadian games
    1) Yao set up a pick for the chinese point guard
    2) rolled
    3) caught the basketball about 10 ft away from the basket
    4) pump faked, but the defender didn't buy
    5) spun left to the basket around the defender (who was a guard)
    6) hooked it with his right hand

    wow!
    What speed and finesse!

    I hope Rudy teaches him a fade away from 20ft or Steve teaches Yao how to break ankles of any power forward or center stupid enough to check him close, he has pretty good ball handling skills

    Yao might change how the center position should be played and be defended against.

    Whats your favorite Yao Move?

    I like how he'll get the ball about 15 feet and just turn around and shoot. SWAT! It looks weird to me since I've never seen anybody do it. Looks pretty easy, too.

    I also like it when someone goes to dunk, and Yao stuffs him. That's a move, right? :)

    When he faked out Wallace. Wallace fell for a pump fake and jumped straight in the air landing on Yao. Yao made Wallace look like an idiot. :D

    1) The turnaround fadeaway he popped from about 15-16 feet. How the hell do you stop that?

    2) The blocked shot he slapped out to a guard to start a break.

    3) A fake up and under type move I thought I saw either in the US game or the Canada one.
