Yao is a slow jumper, he need to squating down before he can jump. Just imagine how many block shots Yao can have if he can jump as fast as AK47.
I think Yao is an average jumper which in addition to his height gives him an incredible reach. I agree with most people he doesnt have the quickness to explode off the ground but for his size and weight is expected (Shaq is an exception). Once Yao gets better a feel for timing his rebounding and blocks will improve.. (he also needs to stop falling for fakes) J
Looks like he's about 18 inches (max) off the ground...not the verticle that Shaq has and not quick like Hakeem as others have mentioned...but still more than I thought!
