    Maybe Yao Ming's appearance in the locker room was what triggered the great comeback in 2H of the Rockets.

    Yeah, another reminder that Yao wouldn't be out there playing to save them is a great motivator :confused: :cool: :) I would be depressed not motivated. I would be motivated if he took off his cast and ripped of this shirt with the Superman logo :)

    Good thing players like Luther, Deke, Juwan and Chuck have gonads

    I found the following link from sina.com today. It shows a clip with Yao's top ten plays in his 2nd season (03-04). Someone may have posted this before therefore I decided not to create a new thread for it.

    Enjoy

    2 interesting articles that tell us how Yao Ming spends his leisure other than his recuperation training at Toyota Centre.

    I'm not going to translate the full stuff, but just the summary.

    Does the above count as stalking ??

    Amazing post Pruyen. I understand chinese, and also love the martial arts epic dramas. I can totally understand when you have a lot of free time, you can get immersed in these games, comics, and series. Let's hope the fiber optic cables are fixed soon so he can enjoy his WoW again.

    If only Yao started teaching Deke Mandarin, that would be totally outrageous, Deke would add to his 50 or so languages he knows and I can just imagine Deke and Yao speaking Chinese in the huddle.

    Yao Ming (HOU - C)

    News: The Rockets' timetable of six-to-eight weeks for Yao Ming to recover
    from his leg injury has been confirmed by Chicago Bulls' team doctor Brian
    Cole, a specialist in tibial plateau injuries.

    Impact: From the sounds of it, Yao will be cleared to begin on court activities
    in mid-February, putting his return to game action a few days after that. He
    doesn't plan to rush back in time to play the all-star game on February 18,
    but that would be right around the time he may return.

    So we're trusting the Chicago Bulls' doctor now?! Isn't there some type of conflict of interest there?

    hey guys, i just found a new and hilarious article about yao's unofficial respondence to his recent gossip from this url

    http://titan.sports.tom.com/2007-01-12/0424/84719003.html

    my english isn't very good, so i'll just try to translate most of the article and try my best make it readable.


    On January 11, it has been deep night in Beijing when it is just morning in Houston. Yao has just gotten up, reading gossips about his dating with black female star Nia Long, with his gf Ye sitting right besite him. Yao couldn't help bursting out laugh "this is just too ridiculous"

    Yao was ready to go training when I put him through. Ye has been his driver and stay with him recently because Yao hasn't been able to drive.

    "You have gossip,too" I said

    "Haha, I just saw that news on internet, that man is just so good at report writing. What is that all about! She is too small, just 1.57m and I'm 2.26m, does that sound reasonable? He also said I watched her movie when I was a kid, tell you what, I didn't even hear about any of her movie name. Besides, how could there be so many foreigh movies then"

    Apparently, Yao didn't catch the name which he never heard of. He asked "BTW, what is her name?"

    "Nia Long" I said

    "Nia what?" Yao asked louder because he couldn't hear clearly.(If you understand Chinese, this is one of the funniest parts of this article)

    With Ye sitting next to him, Yao seemed to have a good mood to joke. He coutinued " Look, several days ago someone wrote that I have a gigantism, and isn't it the best time to fight back? - You have a gigantism, how can you still have mood to date?"

    With the Rockets playing very well, that gossip didn't seem to distrub Yao at all. Last night, Motombo surpassed Jaber and ranked NO.2 BLS in the NBA history, just after Olajuwon.

    "I watched that game at home and din't plan to watch game at Toyota Center, because otherwise I just can't stop thinking of playing on court. Deke was so great, you konw what, I'm just thinking if I don't score, just concentrating on rebounds, can I have eighteen or nineteen in one game?...I don't think so. If twelve or thirteen, that is OK. It's just too strong with his seven rebounds in just one single quarter."

    Motombo is so aggressive, however, he can't surpass Olajuwon. Yao said "He's just unstoppable. He is so good at catching rebounds, and with his strong elbows, both of his opponents and teamates just try to stand aside, which makes him catch more. Falson(Yao's private fitness coach, former Rockets' fitness coach) told me that when Olajuwon retired he was actually 45, with his hairs grey. Since he's from Africa too, people didn't konw much about him. Deke was 25 when he entered NBA. He had a couple of years less (than Olajuwon) at the beginning and end, so he's been pretty good."

    Then Ye was driving SUV, heading for Toyota Center. Yao said "All right, that's it. I just want our team to keep winning."

    YAO, I KNOW YOU'RE READING THIS... FORGET ABOUT ALL THOSE MEDIA STORIES AND OPINIONS ON CLUTCHFANS. IT'S ONLY GOING TO HURT YOU!

    THE ONLY OPINIONS YOU NEED TO WORRY ABOUT ARE THE ONES FROM JEFF AND TOM.
