Does anyone think this guy is overrated or is it just me, I mean come on this guy does not deserve to start in the all star game over shaq. I'm sure he will be a good player if he avoids injury but the only reason he is starting in the game is because of all the hype he got when he came down to the states and all the people in china voting for him.

china was allowed to vote for the all-star game? i thought it was only north america that did the voting.
I like him, I think he's rather exciting and he's going to be a very good basketball player.

Was it that NBA one where he & the rest of the Rockets do Tai Chi? That was a cool ad.

yo yao
hey i live in Houston where the Rockets are from the team that Yao plays with. All i got to say is as long as they win. They guy is freakishly tall. He doesnt even have to jump to dunk. Of course that shit is easy for him. I used to play ball at an elementary school for fun. I was dunking all over the place. I imagine that is how he feels. Go Team. he he he

Yao will be the best centre in recent history in the NBA soon. He has such raw, athletic talent it's uncanny.

Yao is avering more points per game than the only other rookie of any importance (Amare Stoudamire), 1 less rebound and a little under 1 more block per game than Amare.
Looking at the big picture they are about the same in terms of talent but Yao is simply a sentimental favorite in any Rookie voting and who said sentiment didn't count for anything?
