And are you saying that the Mavs aren't small and quick? The smallballed the Spurs to death in that series.
i mean TD's defenders. kings even tried artest to defende TD at times and it worked. but against mavs, TD can easily get by dampier or diop, often resulting an easy shot or being fouled. i'm not saying they r bad defenders, but they r bad defenders against TD. and mavs had no other options.
He merely took less shots against the Kings, and let Ginobili shoot (11 shots PG against the Kings, 21 against the Spurs).
Anyway, this is stupid. It doesn't have anything to do with Yao. |

Yao Ming received another honor yesterday....
It was the 10th year anniversary of the Asian Amercian Studies Centre of the University of Houston.
To acknowledge Yao Ming's contribution in bridging and promoting friendship between USA and China, he was awarded the University of Houston President Medal.
Some 450 celebrities including the Chinese consulate in Houston, Mr. Hua Jinzhou and the Chancellor of University of Houston were present at the award ceremony held at the Hilton Hotel within University of Houston. Yao Ming was the Chief Guest of Honour, sat in the middle of the head table, between the Chinese consulate and the Chancellor of University of Houston.
Yao Ming in his thank-you speech expressed that he will continue to use his best efforts to make more contribution to Sino-American culture and sports, and said: "I wish I can be a good textbook not only limited to the basketball sports."

Yao doesn't respect chinese.
He rarely wears suits in China except for commercial shootings. He always wears shorts and T-Shirt even attending some very formal activities where everyone else got dressed.
Do you guys still remember I posted some negative news of Yao being unfriendly to Chinese reporter last season?
Right, Yao is no saint. He's arrogant to chinese and humble to only americans. |

aww come on!! don't be making up bull ****** like that! This ****** is offical bullshit he's gotta attend because his gf is going to this school and ****** i bet she could use any help she can get. ****** there's no way she can be doing well in that college considering english is her 2nd language and she just started to learn it.
Plus all the ****** he had to go to in china was sponsors and ******. He wore suits to the important ******. You could interperrate that Yao's just a ****** more comfortable in china so he doesn't feel the need to wear suits. ****** how would he look wearing a suit to that AIDS orphanage? LIke a lil ***** thats how. Okay my rant is done. |

Oh, please. He does the same in America. Have you ever read his book. He said in his book, he never wears a suit unless it would be wrong to do so. And he follows that, both in the US and China. |

| Why are these pictures posted here? This has nothing to do with "Yao on court". This should be moved to another forum. |
