    Yeah, he sounds very frustrated and at a matter of fact he sounds like trying his best to suppress his disgruntlement with management group's decision on his situation. Is there indeed something going on under the table? I began to buy those conspiracy theory.

    Ugh!!

    Never heard him sound more frustrated. And it is undefined. And Yao concealed everything that would reflect on any way negatively on the Rockets, the front office, the coaches, and the medical staff. Just doesn't sound right. And no word from his agent team or his business people. Silence.

    It's funny, last year when McGrady would make comments like this we all wanted to slap the fool but when Yao implies certain things, I feel like giving him a hug and a pat on the back.

    Ok wtf is going on. Seriously the Rockets better not boot Yao out the way they did T-Mac or else no superstar will EVER want to sign here.

    LOL - yes they would.....we booted out Pippen, traded Hakeem.......players would play here, one of the biggest reasons they WON'T play here is Yao's situation.

    If will be very stupid for Rockets managements treating Yao badly, since most people in NBA believe Yao is a good guy.

    Of course Yao wants to play, but the trainers don't want to get the blame for having him injured again. With the schedule not being all that difficult, they are going to make Yao get in perfect condition. Unlike you all, I don't smell anything fishy.

    The all time greatest decision Rockets management ever made was booting out Snottie, followed by Stacy.

    Basketball Gods always strike at the most opportune times.

    Most people in the NBA also know that Yao is busted up and rarely ever plays.

    doesn't matter how long yao sits.... the next injury is inevitable, unfortunately

    i have no zero faith he can stay healthy long enough for us to one day contend for a title.

    Again, I hate to sound or come off as a T Mac apologist, and this isn't about defending him. Hindsight not taken into account, trading for T Mac was a greater mngmt move than booting him off, booting him was just an easy step in comparison. I have a problem with revisionism.

    Yao...will not be traded !!!

    some people dont understand !!!

    You are trading 1 billion people and the worlds second biggest economy...endless business contacts.... support from china.... if you have Yao in your team

    Have Yao in your Club for life and you have 1 billion people supporting the rockets...how do you spell cash cow....

    you only need 1% of that billion
