The foundation of the the NBA's Great Wall is now showing a strong evidence that it's not made to last. News is out that Yao Ming's future not only as a Rocket but as a player is in a blur for having that left foot injury.
All this years of running for transition defense, jumping for rebounds, jockeying for position, and walking a dog at the park tortured the Chinese mastodon's feet. With a height not really normal for us humans, the Robert Wadlows of the world obviously are the most vulnerable to feet injuries.
According to Rocket's team physician Tom Clanton, Yao's absence might not only eat up most of the next season and going as far as to say that the injury is "career threatening".
That might need some acupuncture needles. No, I mean roof nails.
