    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">7. Tracy McGrady and Yao Ming playing together again

    It wasn't real cool seeing Yao on the sideline the other night as USA crushed China, but he is expected to be ready for training camp following foot surgery. Tracy didn't require offseason surgery, but his bag of bones needed an extended rest and I sincerely hope he's been living it up this summer. Come this fall, it's time for T-Mac and Yao to get healthy, stay healthy, and travel with each other to Vegas as starters for the Western Conference All-Star team. </div>

    Pretty Good Read

    I would like to see T-Mac and Yao play for the whole season. I'd like to see what they can do if they are both healthy.

    Yeah, it's going to be a lot different this year with Yao playing his best basketball of his career. Also with the addition of Shane Battier and development of the other players, it's going to be unknown how well they will play this year, but definitely a top 10 thing to look for this season.

    What the hell, they should have put the dual between Yao and Shaq somewhere in there. I mean they're two of the best center right now in the world...and two of the best centers from each conference. I'd definitly put that up there, i'm really anticipating how an aged shaq would go against a breakout yao. We'll see.

    If they are healthy for a whole season, I predict they get about 6th seed for playoffs.

    6th???
    thats it!

    Gauranteed the following teams are better:

    Suns
    Spurs
    Mavs

    Any other team is really up for grabs. Lakers, Clippers, and Denver all have a chance, but Denver is slipping and the Rockets have a good lineup.

    Okay maybe not sixth, 5th for sure and possible 4th. I still see the Clippers doing better than the Rockets.
