    I hope Ming steps up on Jay Williams and swats the <BIG><B>CRAP</B></BIG> out of him next time he comes in to the paint...

    Anyone know if they are showing it on NBA TV yet? I hate waiting ESPN to show it ever 10 mins. Makes it hard to update my post.

    BTW, Yao Ming is already much better than Cato and will start this year. This much is obvious from watching tonight. Yao is the real deal.

    The only thing that I noticed was that Yao sometimes (not all the time) holds the ball down around his waist. Bad habbit.

    Yao Ming is a great basketball player right now.

    I thinks its halftime. NBATV isn't showing it. I think the two are actually showing about everything when Yao's in, though it may not seem like it.

    I would love to have seen that attempted dunk. C'mon ESPN, don't let us down!

    Aldridge said on half time Radio Show, that he thaught Yao can play and as he has been saying for the last 6mts., he could be another Rick Smidts. I have now lost all respect for his opinion, he's afraid to say the truth, because he is afraid of insulting the special interest of players!

    Its frickn hillarious when those US guards try to swipe the ball from him while he's holding it up 10 feet in the air on a high post...looks like he's picking on them...I notice he passes the ball with ease with a man in his face, facing the basket, its like the defender isn't even there...he's going to be GOOOOOD!!!!

    I thought Aldridge talking about Brad Miller's <B>current</B> impact on the Bulls was funny.

    Mings 15 ft turn around jumper on Davis was sweet and then the block on Davis at the other end of the floor was awesome.

    Yao Ming is a very special player!

    Can anyone find a reason this guy will not be in the allstar game?
    He is better than Robinson, and at least up to par with Divac. With the National exposer, shouldn't he be a shoe in?

    The worst is having to hear this mutt Tolbert incessantly insinuate that Ming isn't athletic and mobile enough to be a productive inside player. I think Ming wearing flip flop sandals would be more athletic inside than Tolbert ever was in his dreams.

    Can't really tell becasue of ESPN commercials, but it can't be more than 3 fouls. I think he is actually around 2 though.

    wow, this chinese guards are horrible! Their ballhandling skills aren' t even CBA material. Ming's lucky if they give the ball to him every 3rd time down the field.
    Ming seems to be holding his own. Wallace nailed him with a few hard elbows to the back and he didn't fold...not too bad.

    AHH! Ming missed a dunk by hitting the iron, and mouthed an English word. Then Wallace got faked on a pump, and jumped and fell on Ming. Both went down, but both are ok.

    edit:Hmm... I'm going to quit updating. If there are 4 posts in the same minute, with 3 being about the same thing, I think there is enough updaters. Bye!
