    I think it's good. He can concentrate on his basketball instead of media. He doesnt like to be surrounded anyway. I like him to be a hard worker rather than a over-hyped foreigner.

    Unless James comes in a rips up the league, Yao will still be the "center" of attention! :)

    I thinks it is good that Lebron takes media hype from Yao.
    :)

    There will be less pressure on Yao.

    its a bad thing for lebron. coz now, all the pressure is in him coz yao has proven himslef worthy of being called the "#1 draft pick". and it will take some big shoes to fill what yao left behind from spectators.

    Less attention for Yao will be good, but I think Lebron will put up better numbers than Yao did as a rookie. He's playing for Cleveland.

    Definitely, Lebron will put up some more point than Yao, not because he has more potenial or he's better, but because he's play for Clevent, but I still think Yao will still get a lot of attention, don't think about the american media first, but just think how much media attention and pressure on the chinese media.

    Iam going to laugh my butt off when "king" LeBron James is a bust, Although I hope he get some of the media attention off Yao, I do think that will be good, but IMO I dont think he will have even close to the success that Amare had in his Rookie year.
