    Good point. Because of Yao, Houston Rockets have become a household name in China. I enjoy this wave of new Rockets fans. They bring a fresh perspective and yes, they can be annoying some of the time. Overall, isn't it better to have a lively forum?

    As for some of the pre-12 posters, easy on the newbie. You were at one point Columbus intruding on the Indians' land as well.

    as for this NO


    Yao wouldnt pick Lin... Lin is more of a attack the basket guard...

    he needs someone who can feed him the damn ball

    Lin is a good passer but there would be better options...

    btw Tinman are you mainland Chinese?

    bingo. Its funny how Tinman claims to be a hardcore Rockets fan, but hate on people who supports the Rockets no matter the reason. He is a little hypocrite mofo too, coz you can tell he is a hardcore Hakeem fan and probably became Rockets fan because of him. Yet he hates on others for liking a team because of a player. My advise, just /ignore him.

    I don't know why Clutch let Tinman troll this site, create stupid threads and hate on new members. Tinman is a typical Neanderthal, doesnt like change and scared to explore new ideas and what else is out there. He would rather have a really small group of hardcore Hakeem only fans trolling this forum. Hopefully like the Neanderthals he will be extinct from this site too.

    That's also out of hand. tinman is still one of the best posters on the site. I just think his crusade against LOFs is misguided.

    What does Hakeem have to do this thread ?
    That would be crazy Hakeem playing point.
    Probably a better shooter than some of the choices .

    Yao Ming is great at post-up, but he is slow.
    He should play with guards with good 3 pts shooting.
    Lin is not that type.

    Tyson Chandler is the good fit for Lin's style.

    Maybe so, but I haven't read anything from Tinman other than hating new members and touting the fact that he registered in 99. DD.. now that is an excellent poster. WHERE DID HE GO?!

    It's Steve Francis in his prime....he's like Russell Westbrook. As much as everyone hates Westbrook, he wins.

    Francis. He was truly best buddies with Steve and still is. He was the reason Steve tried to make a comback with us, really.

    A lot of people are saying Lin because of the Chinese angle, but I think Yao truly knows Francis better. Hell, he might go for Brooks before Lin.
