The combination of Yao Ming and McGrady hasn't played its biggest role yet. As long as the two cores are in good condition and healthy, it is not a problem to break the playoff spell. It is only a matter of time before Yao Ming and McGrady are selected as the top 50 NBA50 superstars, which is the greatest affirmation of Yao Ming's ability.
