    I think that it's gonna take a little bit longer. Just hope that he can get his outside jumper back when he does not need the arm strap. Making 1-2 outside jumper each game will give him more room to manuever inside.

    I think when he went for that monster dunk against NJ, Zo came down on his arm and gave a little extra aggravation. My guess is, it's probably less than a week left for him.

    He shooting is gonna suck for a while shortly after it's gone becuase he's probably gotten a little used to wearing it.

    care to share what you thought he was talking about?;)

    remember yao's poor shooting games at the begining? he blamed it on the trap. now it seems he's adjusted to it. just wondering if it's going to take him a few more games to adjust once it's taken off.

    I remember that Hakkem water. I used to get it. When it first came out during Eid ,which is muslim holiday, he was giving them out during the morning prayer. I think it was at George R Brown convention center.

    If you have been checking the shot charts, Yao's outside shots are so off now.
