Yao Ming missed last season due to a broken foot. He should be ready to go when the upcoming begins, but he's not sure how well he'll play. "I have no idea if I can return the peak of my form," Yao told China Daily on Wednesday in Beijing. "I have not been tested. I have not played competitive basketball since the injury even in the training. I cannot answer if I will return to my best." "The intensity of my training is going up gradually because at least I feel good about my injury," Yao added. "But talk about recovering my form is nothing but nonsense and will only be realized if I can get through the next season smoothly. Then, you will see results after that season." Yao has struggled with leg and foot injuries over the last five years.
