Rockets have to be the most hard-luck team in the NBA.

I love Yao. When healthy (not very often), he is the best offensive center in the league that can score from the paint-left or right block, left or right hand, has a great jump shot and jump hook, plays decent D and hits a better FT % than any other center currently or ever.....Having said that---he can't stay healthy. This is due to his huge size/weight over the 82+ game season and the year round obligations with China.

Honestly, the only chance the rox have next year will be under the following scenario: Get a young offensive minded backup center (good luck on that one) and limit Yao's regular season minutes and tell China to back off in the offseason (good luck on that one) and have tmac play team ball and stay healthy until we can ship him out in 10 (good luck with that one too).

Rox future looking VERY dim. Probably going to be a competitive team that fades in the first round from here on until say another Olajuwon or Lebron comes along-----good luck with that one
