    I don't think anyone would disagree with me. Now, he is plain stunk. He is even worse than the first game he played with the Pacers.

    He has lost confidence after being overpowered by Shaq. :(

    Remember how poorly he played after the first shaq encounter? He stunk it up for 2 weeks. Too bad the Rockets can't afford another 2 or 3 weeks of Yao playing like **** and still expect to make the playoffs.

    He's not playing well. But its obvious the refs are not giving Yao the same calls they were giving him when Rudy was on the bench.

    Shaqitis has struck again. Imagine if he played a seven game series against him.

    He's a rookie. Name a rookie who wouldn't struggle against Shaq and then Duncan on back to back nights. Even Hakeem would have had a very hard time.

    He has definitely hit the wall. It happens to all rookies at some point or another. Yao has held up exceedingly well, and never really even had a drop off in the middle of the season. But, dude just looks spent.

    I hope he takes some time off this summer or next season is going to be a long year.

    Yao is not hitting the wall, but the IDIOT Larry Smith is hitting the wall. Rox will go to hell with the IDIOT togather or fire him soon.

    I think that is a fair assesment. From the games I have watched lately Yao is NOT getting the same benefit of the doubt calls as he was earlier in the season. Very odd. You would think it would be the reverse after showing everyone how well he plays. That horrible call last night where BRUCE BOWEN of all people ran into Yao and they called it on Yao was outrageous!

    I do NOT think Yao has hit the wall. He might have in January but lately (not counting the Spurs and Laker games) his play has been decent. How about his game versus the warriors last week for example?

    Let's not forget, in the span of 48 hour Yao went against the two best centers in the NBA today, Shaq and Duncan. That is not easy. As good as Yao is, he still is young and has a lot to learn about the NBA.

    I will only give more credence to the WALL theory if his play continues to be bad versus the Nuggets at home on Saturday and on the 3 game road trip. Let's see how he does then.

    Yao has looked slow, unfocused, taken bad shots, reached a lot, and hasn't protected the rim. We would be in real trouble except the Suns are equally folding. We need Yao to pick it up again.

    That's is strange.
    Yao has his own advantage: move, shoot, D, R, but not like Shaq.
    Now a days I feel our coatch want him do something like Shaq. I just feel it is not right. Yao is yao not is Shaq never. Our coach need using his good side. I think R.T did a very good job to put yao into the team but now you can see our yao is just gone because what our coach ask him doing: he is not good at it.

    Yao hits the wall every left turn he makes!

    Look Yao got outplayed by Bradley the laRst time they played yet the Rox fans easily forget how he got embarassed. YOu guys always say that he's better the second time around but this was not the case against a guy like Bradley who's he played 3 times before.

    Yes Yao has hit the great chinese wall. Sit Yao and put in Cato

    Please pull your head out of your arse, since you coming to CC.NET, you have been bashing YAO relentelessly. You have not even watched those three games !
