    Yao Ming will NEVER score 20 points in an NBA game.

    Sir Charles was so stunned he vowed to go on a diet and then he ordered a dozen Big Macs and a Diet Coke :D

    Wrong quote. The original statement from Sir Charles on national TV was ' I am going to kiss your ass if Yao score 18 in an NBA game.'

    Why would people in China be offended by that? Its not like China ever lost a war to the US!

    This is VERY significant. Will it settle the lack of respect issue about Yao with some members here? Hope so.

    This will not be the only Player of the Month Award he wins this season.

    People in China don't give a **** about the word of 'Chinaman' because they don't know what the hell does that mean.
    Chinese American care about this it because they know the history of this word.
    As a matter of fact, Yao has absoulately no clue about what it means when Kerr called him Chinaman and also Shaq mocked him with Chinese accent.

    It was Chinese community in US 'educated' Yao, tried to tell him he should be angry. Yao himself really couldn't care less about these talks, I don't know if this is good or bad for him.

    LOL. It says:

    "Despite the embarrassing rejection the 7-6 Yao received from the 5-8 Nate Robinson, the Rockets' center is still enjoying a career season."

    Wow, nba.com is going to rank him #5 even though he had one of his shots blocked? That's really big of them. :rolleyes:

    36% shooting, actually (0.359). Rudy Gay has been 0.400 or better for the last 3 games in a row. That's not too bad; here are some notables with shaky rookie seasons:
    <pre>
    37.4 % Chauncey Billups
    37.8 % Peja Stojakovic
    38.3 % Rudy Tomjanovich
    </pre>Yeah, I did a double take on Peja's rookie number too. And it wasn't because he was being JVG'd: he got plenty of minutes (21 / game).

    I think Rudy Gay is doing fine.

    i wonder:

    of the past few season MVP's, what is the average POM awards won?

    there might be a hidden magic # to reach. like maybe every player that has won 3 POM awards in one season has gone on to win MVP.

    Are we supposed to play "fill-in-the-blanks" with that statement? Could be interesting.
