    Is it just me or Yao seemed much better at passing out of double team. I thought in previous years, his ability of passing outta double teaming is one of his major weakness, Shaq was much better at it. Yao use to have bad timing which allow opponent to recover, or bad pass result in turn-overs. This is year i see a big improvement on that, which resulted many many open shot oppurtunities for teammate. Inside-out strategy got much more effective.

    I noticed that as well, he makes his decisions much quicker now, and his passes are timely and crisp. I like the way he's playing now, especially now that he's being more aggressive.

    Also, has anyone noticed that his fadeaway jumper in the lane is becoming insanely unstoppable?

    considering his overall fg% is only 50.5% at the moment, i dont think his fadeaway jumper is as accurate as people think.
