There’s a definite ‘must’ read in today’s Houston Chronicle about Yao. Here’s one of the quotes from Rockets coach Jeff Van Gundy:

“I know right now, everybody’s hopping off the Yao bandwagon,” Rockets coach Jeff Van Gundy said. “That happens. People are fickle. When a guy doesn’t make (shots) it’s condemn Yao. It’s either Yao is right behind Shaq (O’Neal) or Yao is right below the worst center in the league. With Yao, the only thing I feel badly about is people try to raise expectations up so high, they’re actually satisfied with nothing that he does. I feel badly for him in that way.

“I’m not going to jump off because everyone else has.”
