Not really, he's actually started to fade a bit down the stretch.

That's too bad, I would have liked to see how he did in the playoffs.

Yao stenches... he was supposed to be this big grand player when he came here... it turns out he's just big... give him a few years... he'll be the next Shawn Bradley or George Muresan.... although he has a little more skills than those two... he had way too much hype for what the rockets got out of it.

You are just jealous cuz he made more money in one year than you will ever make in your life time.

Heh, no they have this other player nicknamed "The Franchise" (aka Steve Francis) who is the star player on that team.
