Did anyone else see the China vs Puerto Rico game last night? Dispite Yao's 29pts, China lost in OT. Yao fouled out after 33 minutes of play with about 6 minutes left in the 4th quater. (there were a few questionable calls...especially Yao's last foul --> hands were straight up in a stationary position). Anyways... Through out the game, I have noticed Yao gave a few grunts of "YEAHH!!!" (he didnt actually say it, but you can tell from his body language). I dont have the pictures to show you guys, but hopefully someone can post them. In 3 of his "basket and the foul" plays, he did this grunt, crossing and flexing his arms. It was then I have noticed Yao has changed... When Yao first came into the league, critics said: he was too soft, he needs to be more aggressive...blah blah. Now I think it has finally happened. After watching this game, I really looking forward to next season. Yao is not afraid to be aggressive anymore. Has the beast finally been unleashed?
Nice to see Yao's change in attitude. He's been playing like a superstar in these Championships; games of 30, 21 and 29, simply wow. However, China is not likely to make the top four of Group D, especially after losing this one. They have to win both their remaining games to have a chance, which would be especially hard. However, Yao should continue his outstanding play.
