I love Yao, as a basketball player very much. But I can imagine him getting retired and playing his PS4 in his private home. 4 surgeries in 2 years? Nah ah.
What do you think about Yao Ming 5 years later?

Yao anchors the 2nd best(you could even consider them the best) defense in the league.

And I take it you believe these same people can't score on Yao?Originally Posted by Carlos Tevez
@ dudes in here saying Dwight is better than Yao. As much as I like Dwight, anyone can score on this guy. Just because he gets 15 boards/game doesn't mean he can defend.

Did you forget about the guy who wears # 21 and has 4 championship rings?
He still plays in the NBA you know.

Titan Sports: The doctor said it was due to long time stress, wear and tear that had aggravated that slight fracture to become now asevere injury. Did you remember how did you get this injury?
Yao Ming: A lot of people said I twisted and sprained my ankle in that rematch with Milwaukee Bucks (China Derby II); but after re-watching all the videorecordings, according to the team doctor and staff, they discovered that maybe I got my ankle injured as early as November 6 in that competition with DallasMavericks. That was the first loss of the Rockets of this season. I fell onto the floor, and stepped onto the foot of DeSagana Diop; so it is almost 4 monthsfrom then to now.

Yao lived up to the hype for sure.
There was half the basketball world thinking he was going to be a bum, and the other half a dominant C in the league.
As it currently stands, he's a top 3 C in the league, no matter how you slice it.

So, what now? Comparing Yao with other centers from NBA? Or staying in the topic, which is "What do you think about Yao Ming 5 years later?"

Yao has lived up to the initial hype he was given when he was drafted 1st overall 6 years ago. He is a great offensive player with a lot of finesse whichhasn't been seen since The Dream. Like others have said, he is an anchor on one of the top defensive teams in the league. The only knock is his recentinjury woes which stretch back 3 years ago and his so lack of aggressiveness which I don't think he really has. If after these Olympics, China miraculouslylets Yao retire from the squad, I believe he will get even better.

I'll admit he's a lot better than I thought he would be.

honestly i thought Yao was going to suck.
obviously I was wrong. He's a good center too bad for Houston fans he got hurt. Actually I also wanted to see how the Rockets would do in the west.

He seems overrated to me. When they played Chicago I remember Noah taking balls away from him.

Give him a break. He even got blocked by Nate Robinson of the KNICKS. Marbury of the KNICKS, former Suns player, gave him a crossover and he fell down.
One sure have off night.

Dwight and Yao are two different types of players
DWIGHT is more athletic and VERY quick, can jump a lot high, just an overall athlete
YAO is a more fundamental player
depends on what kind of team you are on, and what they need you for
