Yao is gone for the season after suffering a stress fracture in his left foot that will require surgery...
The Rox were starting to look really good as well and on a 12 game winnning streak.
Unlucky for fantasy owners.

The curse strikes Houston again. Yao and T-Mac always go down especially when they look good. Forget this team making a playoff impact unless Dikembe turns back the clock.
Maybe Jamal Maglorie could see as a FA for minimum salary since he was waived by the Nets the other day.

Dallas are ready to sign Magloire Champ33.
PJ Brown perhaps?

In other news, looks as though Sam-I-Am has been bought out by the Clippers.
IMO he will head to Boston, which will make Boston that much tougher.

You're correct about that and I discoverd this soon after that post when I checked out the ESPN page.
Thanks for the info though anyway. :D

Yao haters are the worst kind of haters. Just wait for "he only does well because he's much taller than everyone else!"

Isaac, correction. ELG is the worst kind of hater
oh come on that was a joke
But a 41 year old dikembe shouldn't get more blocks than a 7'6 Yao. that's all i'm saying

Yea He is tall. But still he is beating other players easily, and not just in the post. He has shown his ability to hit the turnaround jumper from 12 feet out or so.

#175237 was me by the way.
As if he doesn't work on a Kareem style hook. Then it doesnt matter if he gets pushed out the post, he just hooks it in.

The best team in the East just got a little bit better, and a little bit bigger.
Boston have signed veteran PJ Brown who was rumoured to be going to Dallas.

This is a great signing by the Celtics. Brown is a very good performer in the playoffs, and give the Celtics that extra large body to help Garnett out.
Whether or not they can take it to the tall timber of the West remains to be seen.
There was no doubt that the Celtics would sign someone to boos their chances of a ring even higher. Good signing! Pity he's not still with the Hornets.
