    I recall last year Yao's agent said something to the effect of "He's good now, but wait till they let him shoot 3's"

    Under the current JVG reign, do you think Yao will ever be able to shoot maybe one or two 3 pt shots a game? Yao would really change that game if he does and makes them.

    silentfan - your moniker is way misleading. Please ease off the "Create new threads" throttle.

    I just love it when my 7'6 center that abuses people in the post starts shooting 3's. 5th stupid thread by the same poster in the last 2 days... and counting.

    I am ashamed by my lack of detective work :)

    Nice catch. The policy is: You're caught, you're hosed. Excessive thread-starting problem resolved.

    That was Encyclopedia Codell's handiwork.

    No, Yao shouldn't shoot 3's, esp. since he is kicking Dallas arse inside today.

    Man I love those books when I was a kid too. (I'm assuming you're refering to Encyclopedia ground). Honestly, after that reading those books, I was startled to find that the case wasn't solved at the end of the book when I went on to peroit or holmes books.

    I read those books too. I couldn't solve them when I was 5 or 6 years old. I figured them out when I was 8 or 9 or something.

    So who was silentfan?

    I have a good, long memory. ;)

    Dual posters like Silentfan/Trickdaddy almost always give themselves away when they get back on after being banned.

    Just like PineTreeFM1960.................I forgot his other user name.

    well Yao was a great 3 pts shooter.
    He made many 3 pt shots when he was in China.
