    Cato is good. Cato would change Shanghai Sharks' history. He will be good enough to change the Shanghai Sharks into Shanghai Sucks. For that reason alone we're gonna keep him to ourselves.

    Well your gonna be a fan of the right team, because I think the Rockets are only a few years away from winning a championship and starting a dynasty. Ming and Francis will lead us.

    That is one of the funniest responses I've ever read, considering the context.

    "Sucks" means something or someone is bad. They have no worth. Cato was a center we signed a few years ago and he's not been as good as fans wanted. Alot of fans are disapointed and hate him, so we like to make fun of him.

    It is slang for 'being very bad at something.'

    You have a billion people over there, surely you can find someone to play in that high school league.... ::rolleyes:

    The guy didn't play but 15 minutes a game and still scored 20 points, grabbed 15 rebounds, dished 3-4 assists, and blocked 5 shots. He needs to come here and be challenged and develop his tremendous skills. You will enjoy his talents far more here where he belongs, on the world wide stage with the best players and on the championship team... in part thanks to Yao Ming... :D

    I can see you will need an orientation to our slang, ericshu88, if you want to follow the Rockets action this year and watch our dynasty in the making.

    Here's a good explanation of some Texas slang you might be hearing a lot of. Maybe Yao Ming will even start saying some of this stuff...
