According to Chinese sources, the talks between Yao Ming and the Houston Rockets to extend the center's contract are in a delicate situation. The Chinese All-Star wants a 6-year contract to agree to re-sign with the Rockets, while the NBA franchise is only willing to offer a 4-year contract. Yao Ming, who has missed the entire last season due to a foot injury, will become a free agent next summer, and could decide to sign with another team after 8 seasons in Houston.

He can opt out this summer.

no problem! withdraw the 4 year offer and give him a 6 year offer with the exact same money (total... not per year).

solved, next!

This is going to be one money grubbing summer!


Instead of "IBTL"......the theme should be "IBTNCBA!" (In Before The New CBA!)

This stuff is translated straight from Sina China (the so-called Chinese source is just one of the reporter). We all know how reliable they are.
