Wow, listening to Bill Walton absolutely *gush* over Yao Ming was nearly embarrasing. I mean, it was enough to make a guy blush, ya know? I think ole' billy is infatuated right now. The other commentator would be talking about something completely unrelated ("Tinsley, off to a fantastic start last season ... ") and Bill would somehow, mysteriously make a segway to ... Yao guessed it ... ("But Yao is a big man who can pass better than anybody in the universe!"). It really was embarassing. Walton was straight hatin on anybody on the court who's first name isn't Ming. On national television. Now that ... is love. HAHA even when Yao delivered an elbow to Brad Miller's face, Bill was raving about how fundamental Yao's game is to keep his elbows up at all times. Incredible.
