    Well, looks like he is done for tonight....12 minutes and very unimpressive. Yes it's the first game in 15 months but damn that didnt look anything like the Yao we know. Extremely slow, had absolutely no lift on the few times he went for a rebound, and got destroyed on the defensive end on the low block. I didn't expect him to score 20 points but i wasn't expecting this either. No need to panic I know he will improve as he games go by, but we have a very very long way to go with Yao.

    I guess that video of him and Hayes playing one on one got my hopes up....

    That's the problem with some of you fans, you still expect something. Personally I don't expect anything from Yao. He has been out for 15 months and had quite a complex surgery. There is still a lot of time to go, how about you just chill and just hope for the best.

    You are panicking.

    No need to panic = hold your tongue for at least 2 months into the regular season.

    W/e I don't think he will play like this during the regular season, maybe the preseason.

    But am I the only one who saw Yao look kind hurt or something maybe his back or leg :confused:

    Maybe I'm seeing things hopefully

    Stop overreacting please, we should be glad he is walking out there. Give him some time and he will improve.

    He looked like someone that had a serious near career ending injury that hasn't played in over a year. The best thing I can say; he didn't limp.

    but he did limp imo, he looked hurt after that foul on the dunk attempt.
