    This. Finally, some words of sanity amidst this irrational whirlwind of comments from some Rockets fans.

    I think what the OP meant was that, like Tmac, Yao is done as a franchise player.
    He has to accept the fact that he's a role player from now on, not saying he won't contribute or anything.. but we need to lower our expectations a little

    He's not done as a franchise player. He was injured. Did you get the memo? He's not 100% yet. Talk about overreacting.

    Yao Ming hasn't been 100% for the last half decade. This is far from overreacting.

    He will never be 100% ever again, and to think he would is foolish.

    because I knew mod would lock it. But I am surprised this thread gets a totally different treatment, just because it's after a bad game ? dual standards can I say ?

    Yao is still a good player and help a team win. At this stage,he's a 3rd option. He was never a great player because of certain issues thats hard to control. If yao is higher than a 3rd option, your team is in trouble. Not to mention you need certain kind of players to really cover his weakness.
