    Good news! Just get Yao and Boki signed to extensions and we'll be set for years to come.



    BTW, I was kidding about one of those 2.

    Maybe we're locking him up long-term so we can make a run at a max resigned Sprewell! :eek: :D

    I think the big contract with Fox Sports Net was probably contingent on this extension. Maybe there is a clause also for having Yao on the team past his rookie contract.

    i was just about to say i thought we had worked out over the summer the most he could get was 3 yr/63M and it looks like KRIV is saying it as well according to the last post so that should make it official.

    $21 million/season! Damn, I guess that makes TMac the most expensive Rockets EVER. :)

    I think there is clause for Yao having to dunk more, not do anymore pansy WNBA layups, and getting into fights. :D

    Not even Jordan would be worth $21 million a year.
