Yao

The NY Post reports that last minute problems may keep the Rockets from selecting Yao Ming, but locally Rockets sources have denied there are any such problems.

The Knicks would really like to draft Yao with their seventh pick, so this may be a case of wishful thinking.

I'm not all that fired up about the pick, but the guy has to be an upgrade over Kelvin Cato. We shall see in a few days.
