    He's still walking on his own without clutches, is that good?

    I'm crushed. I think Yao said it best, "Maybe I'm just an unlucky guy."

    Seemed to have the right attitude...


    Sounded like he said the Olympics were less important than the rest of his career...



    Still seemed in shock himself...



    I feel for the big guy. :(

    It's amazing how candid he is about his feelings. When they ask him tough questions, he gives an honest answer, even though it's not necessarily what the fans want to hear.

    Yeah that got me too. I don't believe in crying for this stuff but it makes me sick in my stomach. Enough of this board for a while. I need a break. :(

    That was very hard to watch. Yao thinking he's "an unlucky guy"...how the team reacted to the news.

    Most honest, sincere, great athlete you'll ever see. It's not all about Ws and Ls. It's about character and Yao has a shtload of it. After all, nobody wants a championship with a guy like Artest or Allen Iverson. I am damn proud he's a Rocket even if he doesn't produce the results we want.

    yao looked like he was still in shock the entire conference

    said the worst feeling was coming into the building today knowing he and coach would have to drop the bomb on the team

    i feel so bad for yao. watching him speak like that about his feelings makes me forget about the pettiness of my fan feelings. It must r e a l l y suck for him.

    Who wouldn't be?

    One day, you have nothing but some soreness, which you played through for a couple of weeks... next thing you know, your season is over.

    is there any precedent for this injury? four months seems reasonable. yao doesn't seem too confident that it will work out. could he come back for the playoffs if he drinks an unreasonable amount of milk? basically what is the upshot of a second opinion?
