    “Tracy did so much for our team last year when I was out so I’m trying to pay him back,” Yao said.

    Hey, if that's what's making him play like this. I hope he gives Tracy a massive Christmas present.

    I don't know if i can trust yahoo sports, but if it's true, then it confirms my suspicions that yao is a giving individual.

    tracy also giving love to yao. these 2 have ridiculously good chemistry no doubt.

    "A lot is really riding on Yao," McGrady said. "I told him, just looking at the game last night in the fourth quarter, we get it down low, get great post position, stay aggressive, they got to double team. Either they double team or he goes one-on-one and I'll take my chances with him going one-on-one on anybody. If he can do that consistently, we'll be a hell of a team.

    "We're leaning on him. I'm handicapped right now."

    We have won the last 2 games because we have continued to feed him the ball. Even if he struggles we must get him his shots because I believe most of the time he will come through.

    I read the story on the source link. It sounded right and I believed this was Yao's own words.

    I love Yao's basketball & speaking IQs

    At least someone appreciates what he does/has done for this team.

    Right now he's injured, and people want him to put up 30, 6, and 6.

    TRADE T-MAC!!

    :rolleyes:

    Source?

    I m really happy they've been loving each other since the very beginning! I also sense that Ron is pretty much comfortable with T-mac and Yao. I want them to make 3 into 1 on the court. Surely, we also need our role players to step up and they did tonight.

    If Tmac knows he's "handicapped," then why doesn't he sit? Better to play without him for a few months than have him remain crippled for the whole season/ playoffs.

    this has been beaten to death. he MUST play if the knee is to get better b/c it's all about strength. there's no injury to the knee.

    and as you've seen, he's slowly getting better. he won't move very well and resume playmaking until probably another month.

    I think the Rockets are starting to build their chemistry on the court... I can't wait for Shane Battier to come back... He is the glue in this team
