Yao Ming came to L.A. last night with a clear mission.

And after a 100-92 road win for the Rockets, I think his point has been proven.

“The truth is, he just can’t compete with me. He’s got no game…in terms of height,” Yao Ming said after the win.

Yao Ming’s height smackdown was even apparent to Lakers’ Coach Phil Jackson. “Kobe just couldn’t seem to measure up to Yao tonight, no matter what he tried. Even when he put on those moon shoes, there was just no denying that Yao was the tallest player on the court.”

For the next game, Bryant has stated he intends to come out with a whole attitude, as well as a pair of 12 inch platforms.
