    Steve Francis and it's not close. Yao has too much love for him.

    As to who I think would actually pair the best with him, Lowry.

    Francis, Brooks, Lowry, Sura

    In that order

    But in actuality: Tracy McGrady. The Yao T-Mac pick and roll was unstoppable

    It shouldn't even be a tight race.

    Stevie Franchise is way better than any other PGs in that list. He is also way better than Lowry or Dragic. It's not even close.

    Doesn't matter. Not hard to pass it to the tallest guy in the league and expect an assist.

    Probably Steve, after Yao finds out that Steve speaks better Chinese than Lin does.

    All you people who picked anyone other than Rafer do know that Yao played his best ball when Rafer was his PG right?

    And really? Bobby Sura? He has more votes than Skip? The one white guy in the NBA who couldn't do a decent entry pass? Yao would rather have him? :rolleyes:

    tinman, I have great respect for you as a Rockets fan and as a poster, but your crusade against Lin fans and new members has gotten a little out of hand. I know it's probably not the case, but you sound like you're rooting for Lin to fail, and you're really alienating fans who will come to love the team as a whole (a lot of YOFs became great Rockets fans after a while). It's just getting a little old at this point.


    On the poll, Yao would probably undoubtedly choose Francis. I would probably personally pick Lowry.

    wasnt Tinman translating Yao Ming articles back in the day...

    I seem to remember he was the biggest YOF ever....

    as you can see he is a big Rox fan these days...

    I hear Tinman turned out to be high on Tmac...

    who was a chucker with a low fg %

    his years with the Rox

    and a guy who brought TMOFs
