Thx for the informative post, daoshi. Here's a question for you... Do you see Yao ever evolving into a more aggressive player like Shaq or Barkley??? theSAGE
Did you wach the game? Yao off reb increased,blks increased,frt increased in recent games although he still has many things to improve.
I wish he could, but I don't think he will. When you have been trained to play a certain way for 10+ years, it becomes intuitive. It's like part of you. I could be more aggresive upon constant reminder of the coaches & teammates, but that's about all he will be able to do! --daoshi
Even if Shaq get ready ,his teamats does not pass each ball to him, but Shaq is the king of his team all of his teamates know it. What about Cat? Does he know it? Does he play more effectively than Yao? Please note that Yao is not Shaq, he is himself.He has his style to play which can make Rockets play team ball and success. I think Yao has done good job so far though he still need to increase his agression.
