    May be the case, but they didn't know that with certainty then.

    Hard to know the situation though. They may have wanted to wait on a surgery option.

    Do you happen to know if it is the same ankle that he had surgery on before?

    Brilliant plan!!!... Never quite heard of a surgery improving quickness or athleticism, but Im sure they've tested the theory on rats and apes....Where do I sign... signed Thabeet

    yao's main surgery- that ended his career_ was not an ankle but navicular stress fracture. couple o bones under the ankle and on top of the foot.

    At this point it's unlikely that the season will start on time. So he's got time to heal.

    When Yao was considering the surgery he spoke to Patterson about the recovery process etc, because he had it in College.

    I recall it from some Chronicle articles.

    I'm sure he's not that stupid, probably just got typing too fast. But it was still funny =)

    It reminded me of when Avery Johnson was a player and did an interview one time: "I school to the left, I school to the right... Fool, I'm amphibious!"
