    I'll assume you were making some sort of bad joke. I certainly hope you don't really think this! (for your sake)

    Just to clarify, I want very much for Yao Ming to with the ROY. I think at this point he stands a better than 50% shot at it, which is (obviously) better than the chances for Amare and the others, but to say he should be "running away with it" is not really backed up by reality

    Stoudemire should win R.O.Y. and IMO will be the best NBA player in the 2002 draft.

    What the heck?

    "If yao ming wasn't asian, people would wonder why he sucks so much."

    ARE YOU STUPID OR SOMETHING?!?!?

    WHAT'S UP WITH MANUTE BOL AND SHAWN BRADLEY?!?!?!?

    He has been a little tired.

    I hope he can get co-rookie of the year...

    Though I am Yao supporter, given up to date performace you have to give it to Amare. He has been simply amazing. Amare is getting better with each game and Yao is heading south for the winter.

    However, I have a feeling that somehow Yao and Amare will end up as being co-rookies of the year.

    Stoudemire will and should win ROY. But ROYs don't always become the best player in the draft. YM will be the best regardless of the ROY result IMO. The Yoyo's Magic vs Bird example is very good.

    isn't over yet!
    come on, people. there's still half a season left. anything can happen. I don't see why Yao can't turn it around.

    Yeah I know that but I just like Stoudemire's game more. He plays like a big man and is very athletic. I also think he will have a better NBA career than Lebron James. James seems like a bunch of hype to me. He may be a good player in the league but Stoudemire will be a superstar in 2yrs max.
