i have no doubt yao ming will kick ass again Stories - The Dream Shake
The concept of a "curse" is overrated, but.........(Now with TDS' shortest recap.)
4 games, 5 nights, 8 players. Rockets lose to Clippers when they run out of steam late 4th quarter. Lakers next. Joy. There. That was it. I'm too disgustipated to add anything more. Dave's piece here pretty much says it all. - Xiane ------------------------------------------ When is the last...
Yao's Downtown Restaurant - Grand Opening
Last night I had the privilege of attending the Grand Opening for Yao Ming's new downtown restaurant. As Silent Bob's good friend Jay once said, "I'm people who know people." Yeah, writing a blog about the Rockets can pay off in strange ways. I took this opportunity to drink on Yao's tab. That...

Adrian Wojnarowski is trying to write Yao's tombstone a bit prematurely
[alternate title: The rumors of Yao Ming's demise have been greatly exaggerated] And so it begins. Yao will have surgery next week. In response, the sportswriters of the world have already begun playing leapfrog to see who can write the first obituary for the NBA career of Yao Ming. This...
Free Agency begins: What do we really know about the Houston Rockets?
Free agency begins in a little more than 2 hours. The Rockets only have two players from the '09 roster that are free agents. Crazy Pills and Von Wafer. There is little doubt that in May, I wanted these guys back on the team next year. Sadly, in the weeks since the Game 7 loss to the Lakers......
Yao's foot still hurt? Noooooo!!
Bad news on the Yao Ming foot injury front... seems his foot still has not healed. Nor is it responding to the treatment. So much for only being out 8-12 weeks. [insert sad face emoticon here.] Then again, my optimistic take is that maybe this is just a big ploy to trick the Chinese government...
Yao is out. I'm going to cry. I'm also going to blame Sleepy for this.
Yao broke his foot. Again. Okay, whatever. So Yao is out for the playoffs. But should he be? Everyone who watched the game on Friday saw that Yao was hurt and hobbling in the second quarter. Everyone also saw that by the fourth quarter, the Rockets simply were not going to win. Yet Yao...
No, no, no - Yao can't be seriously injured again. I will not allow it.
No. This cannot be happening. I refuse to accept even the concept that Yao Ming could possibly be injured. No more of this: Besides, isn't today a day where people have a history of overcoming any injury? Even that pesky thing known as "death"? I have no doubt Yao Ming will be ready to kick...
Yao's Recovery
Dave and I got this from Reebok and thought it would be of interest to everyone out there: Also, check out Yao's Reebok site here
Ron Artest - Why this guy?
So let me get this bit of information out there quickly. I'm not an Xs and Os basketball guy, yes, I know them, but in my mind, "plays" in basketball work about 4 times a game, and usually they are just where did the screen get set or who gets the ball on the inbound and then who cuts where. My...
