WOW... started at 7pm Yao looks very impressive...playing very good defense and moving the ball well to his mediocre teamates... On the first play he blocks the 7"3 S. Korean Center's shot, then comes down does a spin move and dunks...then he yelled... showing some NBA charisma.... Yao does look bigger too... we should win 55 games this season if he gets the ball... "a VERY ANIMATED YAO MING...showing alot of emotion now compared to his early rookie year" - commentator on NBA TV
And Yao wasn't shy of casting mean stares at opponents after a dunk. His shooting touch seems to be intact after bulking up from his display of various skills, long range jumper, turnaround fadeaway, hook shot etc... Yao is developing a flying-towards-the- basket-in-the-air baby hook after collecing a long offensive rebound...
