    It puts the boot on its foot or it gets the hose again!

    If Yao did indeed remove his boot this is the best news we could have hoped for! It means there's a chance that if he just rests with the boot on for the next 2 months or so he may be able to come back for training camp with no surgery required!

    Don't you worry. From the "Clanton to leave Houston sports teams" thread it's easy to see where things are headed. Nothing is as it seems apparently, and Dr. Clanton is to blame for the Rockets woes as well as some posters own personal inadequacies.

    If he took it off then he must be having it looked over by doctors who practice chinese medicine. Either way how can that be selfish, if he is truly trying to find ways to heal faster/better?

    Yao was told not to wear the boot 24/7. He may have missed wearing the boot the full 2 to 3 hrs that he was told to wear it. I just don't think Yao would risk damaging himself. I hope wearing a permanent cast will help heal Yao much better than surgery.

    whether he removed the boot is irrelevant. Yao is 7 and half feet tall and weighs over 300 pounds. Thats the problem.

    The important thing now is how to get healthy. People can start pointing fingers and establishing reasons for this problem but this would not solve anything. Let Yao get his opinions from other medical sources and let us take it from there.

    You know if there's that annual "Official Yao Ming Summer Activities" thread, there would not be any argument in this regards.

    There are tons of photos in Chinese website with Yao attending public events and he was with his boot on. People who spread out the rumour without checking the FACTS are beyond miserable.

    IMO, Yao should stay in Houston the whole summer and take as much rest as he could but he chose to go back to China and did those charity events for his foundation. It's the frequent events hindered the rehab process I believe. He should be back to China already (more charity events in ShiCuan) according to his original schedule. Let's see how it turned out eventually.

    Lol your post reminded me of Pryuen. Hope the little guy is ok and hasn't tried to jump off any buildings just because "Big" Yao has a career-threatening injury.

    YAo mING has wore out his welcome in Houston. Healthy or not, Houston fans don't care, Yao Ming fans dont care either, if he continue to play for the Rockets that is.

    Thanks for speaking for the entire city of Houston and all Houston Rockets fans. Last time I checked, he injured himself in a playoff game playing as hard as he could. Definitely despicable.
