![]() The Rocket Began Trade Talk Written By: Fred LoveaLeague | FredLuvALG15 August 8, 2008 AP ---> A couple days after the finalization of the Artest trade, franchise Center Yao Ming made some shocking and disappointing comments on the newly acquired player. Many just ignored those comments including Ron Artest himself saying " Ehh I understand I'm new to this team I don't expect a grand welcome celebration I'll earn his respect.” Little did he know Yao at the same time didn't want his respect? Surprisingly Yao Ming wanted only to get out of the city of Houston and leave the Rockets organization. Fans of the team where baffled to find this out, after all theses years in Houston is this Yao Ming true personality. He has helped many leaders of this team in the past be contenders including Tracy McGrady, and Steve Francis. Now, it looks as if he is throwing in the white towel. Shortly after having a few press conferences with the newly appointed general manager of the Houston Rockets, Chris King also known as CWizz for his incredible dealing abilities Mr. Ming was granted the ability to enter the Trade Block. When we heard this we knew we had to get the word on this from the man himself Yao Ming. So we where able to track him down and this is what he had to say: ![]() - Ming doesn't look to happy to talk, does he? “What? What do you want sir? Is this about the Artest trade? Well, yes I am upset the Rockets Organization made a promise before falling into the hands of general manager CWizz. They promised that I and Tracy McGrady will be the franchise stars for years to come. I don't think bringing into a player who obviously likes to fight a lot and bring convict to team's locker room is keeping that oath. I'm glad I get a chance to be shipped out honestly me and Tracy do all the work on the Rockets and last year it was just me. Me all alone at there trying to win a championship, though I like all the popularity it's just not possible. I realized it now I think the Rockets need too. I'm done with this I have an appointment to go to." Artest had little to say about this. So from what we know he is clicking well with his other teammates Francis, McGrady and Battier. He stated he was glad to be shipped to a team with possibilities to win championships. Ron for once isn't the bad guy in this situation which is good for a change. Thou he did have mix thoughts at first, now he feels this the right price for him and this will be his home for a while. ![]() So as you can see Yao Ming isn't quite the friendly neighborhood Chinese man. So with him out the door and Artest coming in the only question is what else? What will the Rockets get for Yao maybe a star or even two? Only time will tell, but one thing we do know Yao is definitely not staying if that's the last thing he does. |
