Yao Ming made his Rockets' debut tonight. Kind of rough with some mental lapses and being bullied in the paint by Tim Duncan and David Robinson. But he'll be okay.
Unfortunately, the regular season starts in a week so he'll have to learn on the job, in games that actually count. |

Yao Ming is my new favorite basketball player. He looked like a tall version of me playing basketball in that game
But seriously, I'm sure he has real talent and I am sure he will be a dominant center in years to come. Being, what, 7'6" doesnt hurt either hehe _________________ Justin Lieber |

Yeah he's already got an unstoppable move in that turnaround fadeaway midrange jumper.
It's like Michael Jordan's fadeaway jumper when he was with the late 1990's Bulls. There's no way you can defend that. With Jordan though it was because he had such a great first step to the basket you had to lay off and hope he missed that shot.
With Ming, it's unstoppable because he's so tall. |

Hehe, well Yao Ming is off to a rough start. 0 points in Game 1 and 2 points in Game 2 against Denver tonight. Ouch. That's a big 1.0 points per game average for the rookie.
Ouch. |
