    We were so fortunate to be able to share in Yao's time here as a player and now beyond.

    Just absolutely stunning. This is a first class organization, and Yao is a first class Superstar.

    Big Man should just suit up and play. The team is missing the post game badly.

    Was hoping for Colin Pine reunion.

    And what's up with getting a quote from MoT. Who thought that. "We should get MoT to say something." lulz

    Inspirational tribute to Yao Ming. Much deserved. Only wish his coaches were present. The speakers and of course Yao did a great speech. Glad to be there to witness his jersey retirement.

    That's awesome. I think Harden sees all this, from this year and from when the Rox honored the 1994 & 1995 championship team, and totally wants the same recognition.

    Outside of the Hollywood limelight, I think a legacy is more important to Harden. Crossing my fingers that this is true
