    Or Mooch -- unless there is a trade with his name, and X-piring contract, on it.

    According to Bill Worrell the players coming back Wed. will put a smile on your face. The only 2 players that will put a smile on my face is Yao and Sura.

    A jumper...you kidding?? I saw him about two years ago talking to Yao before the game up here in Dallas. They were standing about halfway between the bench and the three point line, and Calvin ONE-HANDED hit a long three. Looked like he didn't even try. I couldn't believe it. Then Yao tried one-handed and bricked. It was just before they took that picture of Yao and Bradley back to back.

    I have mixed feeling for this. I hope they are not rushing him back. And IF he does play, PLEASE limit his minutes. He is not Tmac: Yao generally takes much more banging than his teammates on the court.

    Does anyone else read these type posts outloud with some sort of screaming (attacking) Ninja accent? No, just me. Sorry, it's just me. Carry on.

    I can't see them rushing Yao back under any circumstances. If he's back this week then it's just good news with no drawback.

    According to Chinese media, Yao and Swift will be back this week. It doesn't mention when other than saying Yao can be back for the game vs. Miame. It says it is according to the predictiion from Rockets official website, though I couldn't find the info.

    I don't think they would rush Yao at all. If he's back he'll be played in slowly, besides he'll need to build his stamina again

    Maybe it will be a suprise and Yao will come back.

    Either way, the Rox should beat the Bobcats who are depleted at the moment! T-Mac should go off for another 40+.
