    This probably doesn't deserve it's own thread, but I just liked the clip so much it might be worth sharing.

    During the fourth quarter of the Lakers game, Yao literally picks Trevor Ariza off the ground while trying to go up with the ball. The face on Ariza is great, because it looks like even he was surprised by Yao's strength. I'm sure it's probably happened before, but I personally had never seen a player do that.

    If you look closely, you can see that Lamar also has his hand on the ball.

    You know... the extra "s" you added would be unnecessary if Nene was involved.

    Had the ref not blown the whistle for a jump ball, Yao would have dunked Trevor and the ball into the basket; but then Yao would comit an offensive foul, so that was a call in favor of Rox :rolleyes:
