    Even in first class, flying from China to the US must suck for 7'6 Yao.

    That's why Murray left 1 spot on the roster

    I am totally impressed by this show of solidarity and support by these centers who formerly played for the Rockets. Got to be something truly special with the team, the organization, the city? Southern Hospitality ?

    Wish I could be there...

    I would give anything to see Yao just play even one more game in the NBA.

    Yao should teach Dwight some post moves. Man if D12 can develop his offense game to 3/4 as good as Yao's was in his prime he would be unstoppable

    I almost start crying when I think of Yao's injuries. He was achieving true greatness,when he got injured against the Lakers. He never gave up.

    that's why he dominated him lol

    can you guys believe that Yao was drafted only 2 years before Dwight? Now he's considered an old legend while Dwight is "the new age" :grin:

    Since I can't edit posts, before anyone gets on my case... I meant that's one of the reasons why he dominated him. His skill level was on another level for his size obviously

    Too bad Yao got chubby, if he slimmed down and stayed in shape he would be perfect as the 15th man on the roster!
