    I've had two favourite players since watching the NBA. Hakeem and Yao.

    Loved Yao. That feathery touch. I'm glad Dwight is playing for us too.

    How spoiled we as fans have been having great Centers. Hoping that this season can still be something special.

    All in all we are kind of spoiled. We've always had superstar players here, it hasn't equaled the tally of championships of the Lakers or Spurs but we've had it good I think.

    3 things:-
    (1) no centers can guard Yao without fronting him. He is simply too big n tall.
    (2) Dwight has no post moves and still doesn't has it.
    (3) where the hell is rockets2k? I miss his clips

    "The Chinese Great Wall" is a bit redundant, don't you think?

    Yao and harden would be really freaking good.

    Pick n pop all day baby.

    Yao was underrated on defense. He held a top 3 defense for year as the main cog and was a career 2blk per game guy.

    I love Yao, but we've already accomplished more with Dwight than we ever did with Yao.

    For the lazy among us:

    <iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/mFppQfs75Ro" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

    That team would kill this team.
