Man1: I don't think you've ever had a match-up in basketball of that magnitude since Russell and Chamberlain. You have that potential with these two guys.
Commentators: They're watching live in Shanghai at 10:30 in the morning as O'Neal goes right at Ming. Yao Ming wide open. Samaki Walker, good job, slowing down the big man. Yao, first touch. So many big names and big fellas in the game. Second block on O'Neal! Trying to go to his jump hook. ln transition. Yao on the other end! This is a stunning start. O'Neal. Look out! Up strong with help. Loses the handle! ...since the days of Hakeem Olajuwon. Preparation, knees flex. Attempt a three. Ming! He's calling for the ball. He's just going right at the league's most valuable player. There's Shaq inside. Wearing Yao Ming down and out. …at the top, getting it down to Shaquille O'Neal. Turning inside, he slams it home.
Crowds: Aah!
Crowds: He just pushed him over!
Commentators: Mobley gets the good pass from Yao Ming. O'Neal, beautiful baseline move. So, they're gonna take the ball up to the big fella. Over to Steve from Yao.
Colin: Ties the game at 92!
Commentator: Kobe's gonna shoot it here. Watched by Mobley. Bryant tries. Over Ming! Shaq rebounds.
Crowds: It doesn't count! It doesn't count!
Man2: The buzzer already sounded!
Commentator: We will have overtime.
Rudy: Yao, you gotta grab his arms like this so he can'tpound the ball up.
Commentator: Nine on the shot clock, twenty seconds left in the game. Yao Ming comes out. Drives out close to Bryant. Goes out over Francis. Three seconds left. Steve down in.
Crowds: Yao! Yao!
Yao: Yes, I felt like I was underwater for a long time and I can finally breathe.
Colin: After the game against Shaq, Yao got calls from practically everyone he knew in China. Yao's fame had reached an all-time high. And by the time he got to the All Star Game in Atlanta, there was a huge buzz around him.
Wear down 和 wear out 是兩個詞組。Wear down 的意思是“diminish, weaken, or tire by relentless pressure 磨損，損耗，使疲勞”，比如：The heels of these shoes are quite worn down. 這雙鞋的鞋底被磨得很厲害。Wear out 的意思是“exhaust, tire 疲勞”，比如：I was worn out from packing all those books. 收拾這些書可把我給累壞了。
電影中這句話Wearing Yao Ming down and out. 的意思是“姚明疲于應(yīng)付奧尼爾的進(jìn)攻”。
