SHANGHAI - Yao Ming has retired, but his popularity won't wane, at least in Shanghai, his hometown.
"Retired or not, he is the greatest basketball player in Shanghai and China," said Huang Qin, a 22-year-old college student who describes himself as a diehard supporter of Yao and his NBA team, the Houston Rockets.
