    He is no Charles Barkley, but to paraphrase George Costanza's dad from Seinfeld: "This guy....he's my kind of guy." The following quote tells me he is going to be fun to have around. [the link to the entire article follows.]


    Yao already knew Tomjanovich, who coached the 2000 U.S. Olympic basketball team that beat China.

    ``He wants to be a great player in a humble way, and he's got a sense of humor, too,'' Tomjanovich said. ``The first time we talked, he told me: `Of course I remember you coach, you're the guy who fouled me out of the Olympics.'''

    :D
