How much have you seen of Yao Ming, Joe?  I caught some of a show about him
on tv and I was totally underwhelmed.  It was not at all the kind of show
you could make a good evaluation from, just some clips of him playing
against much smaller players, but I thought he looked skinny and clumsy.
Listening to the things he had to say, it sounded like he might mave a touch
of Chinese Lap Dog in him, too.  He had to be made to dunk the ball by his
coach, for instance.  Has anyone seen enough of him to give a better
account?

How would this be for a nightmare scenerio: Denver wins the lottery and
picks up one of these guys who puts them in the playoffs for years to come?
Just rip out my heart and stomp on it right now.
