My wife recently went to Beijing for a few weeks, so the first pic is of the huge Reebok Yao statue in one of the shopping areas. On the way back, she ran into Deke and his family at baggage claim. I'd love to post the pictures, but how the heck do you do that?

Going to miss him next season. He may have been the oldest backup center, but when he played, he played with heart.
I was fortunate enough to shake his hand at the Rockets Play Day (thanks again to Dave for spotting me a ticket) and it was awesome. Obviously he's a legend of the game and it's always nice to see them up close and personal, but more than that I really felt privileged to shake the hand of someone who does so much for this world. What a great guy.
LMAO. He looks pissed in that second picture. You probably could've just asked him to take a pic rather than go paparazzi on him.
yeah, deke looks like he's about to 'bow somebody.. i believe it was the OP's wife that took the pics..
It would be great to have Mutombo back for this season. He would teach Dorsey and Andersen while starting and filling in for Yao effectively. His game is still better then what the team has now. Its sad that He had to retire this year.
