    kneed him in the groin? i think head-butting him in the groin would be more appropriate, given height differences :D

    this thread is still alive? There is nothing to this thing.

    yao would never protest anything. I call the big BS here. This all started off a pointless article.

    not Blatantly IMO

    However

    Honestly . . . . I don't mind that they don't work overly well together
    but man . . THIS TEAM IS HORRIBLE when they both out of the line up

    We need both of them . . . At least one on the court at all times

    How they do it. . . I dunno but. . .

    I don't see any problem with this statement. I don't even see Cato doing this. This team is going nowhere with SF's attitude. It's better to change things as early as now since SF is showing no interest in changing.

    I was imgining how JVG could do that .... He had to have quite an impressive jumping ability to knee Yao in the groin ...

    Pretty much lame that Stein would write this. One, Yao would never say it (so therefore he can't deny it), then he just says he wouldn't protest too loudly. This is nothing more than speculation based on what he sees on the floor. 'Throw it out there and see what sticks' mentality.

    I can see it now:

    Yao Ming: "I'm busting my ass to post up我拒绝打篮球直到selfish sons of b****es火箭组织交换那pass the ****ing ball些可怕的运动员史蒂夫・Francis 和Cuttino Mobley."

    Colin Pine: "Yao the Great says if his very good friends Steve Francis and Cuttino Mobley were traded, he would protest in a mild-to-medium-toned voice."

    That's pretty impressive, Clutch;)

    I don't think Yao will say anything like that this season, but coming next season? He won't have any choice because the Rockets will desperately need his opnion on the roster before his option year.
