yao ming

[LeBron James]

Yao Ming has gone from a skinny tall twig, to a nicely toned giant. In November of 2002, Yao Ming was listed at 7-5, 296. Now, less then a year later, Yao is still 7-5, but he is now 320 pounds of solid muscle. He is going to be a beast this season.. He has gone from a non physical player, to a beast!

quite difference.good offseason work now he is ready to compete against shaq,and he will be dominate him.

nice , but i still want to see him do those things at nba-level, and someone who will dominate shaq still has to be born, or shaq has got to be injured/hurt or gettin' really old

[The Big Racist]

Yao has worked greatly,he doesnt look like a stick anymore and about the Shaq's part...no one can stop him,shaq still would kill yao

[magius]

shaq is 335 and 7'1, i think yao should bulk to around 330-340 at 7'5 since shaq is obviously a bit abnormal anyway on the other hand, ilguaskas plays alright and he is 7'3 and only 260......... but obviously the muscle mass will help yaoza.

and he will be dominate him.

Little boy, keep on dreaming you keep doing that.

Still want to see if Yao can handle the ammount of work he has lying infront of him.

that's good to no that Shaq is not going to be an all team dominate force this season...Yao might stop him...

[Andrew]

The added muscle and bulk should be beneficial to Yao, but he still needs more touches and minutes to continue his improvement (statistically speaking). That's going to be difficult, because the current arrangement basically has him playing basketball around the clock. He may not be able to play 30, 35 minutes per game for 82 games a year. Unless he gets a break, he's probably never going to get a chance to be the dominant player that he could be.

[Robby]

I think having Van Gundy around will help Yao a lot. He knows how to utilize a great center and will also make sure that Yao gets enough rest and is ready for a possible playoff run.

[magius]

they should give yao an automatic 10-12 games off every year if he becomes EXTREMELY fatigued.

[Nel]

China should give Yao a break.

he may improve...but he still hasnt any chance against Shaq.....he also lost 25 pounds while working out with the navy, he will still dunk on yop of him

Shaq is also being trained by Marines this summer to get in shape... Yao has no chage with Shaq. He could even hold Shaq when he was out of shape
