    One problem of YOF is if you say something bad about YAO, or anything, they will swamp you and label you as " such hater, Idoit, ......."

    I don't have to prove to you. Someone else already did. Take it or leave it.
    Did you read my post or not? Did I say everyone? You know what, Truth hurts.

    Please don't put words in my mouth. Please carefully read my post. People need to learn to be graceful.

    I think I did.


    People who call for Tracy to step up, start hitting shots, even becoming the leading scorer on this team are not, on the whole, discrediting Yao. There may be a very small verbal minority who are blind McGrady fans... but they make up about .001% of the actual population here.

    Up until the second half of last year, when Yao began to dominate, people where saying the same thing about Yao. Tracy and Steve Francis couldn't do it alone either. (although I'll give Yao the benefit of the doubt when SF3 was in town, they couldn't or wouldn't make a solid entry pass to Yao consistently to save his life)



    Look around the league. How many teams are winning with a dominant center and nothing else?

    Exactly zero.

    Thanks.

    See, you may want to say that you are the rocket only fan, but you don't want yao to outperform those guys. What kind of rockets fan are you? How contraditory!

    "Exactly zero" This just shows how absurd you are.

    I happen to be the one getting to your nerve, but at least I am reasoning.

    Don't get me wrong. If trade Yao can make this team better, hell, I will trade his big ass within a blink.
    I just simply want to point out that indeed there is some people who want Tmac doing better than Yao regardless of team's interest.

    No you aren't. Despite being wrong, you are at least polite about it. Yes, you are trying to reason and I have a feeling you are getting the point.

    Stick around you will see what is truly annoying.

    Seriously I love Yao not because his bball skills. I love him as a person. I use him as a model for my kids not because I want my kids to be bball players. I want my kids to learn the decency, courtesy, and the class he has. A lot of people love him for those things and hate his bball stuff. For example, I hate to see him get dunked on and run over.

    Just to sort you out! As I was the first one to be called YOH . In my case
    #1 I am a diehard Rocket's fan.
    #2 My favourite NBA Player. who by the way plays for the Rockets is Yao Ming.
    I refuse anyone to make anything of it, even after more than a 100 attempts to pull me down, I am still a 100% Rockets fan for 25 seasons.

    I don't think there's many Rocket fans like that, and I don't think there are many NBA fans like that. Unfortunately there are some people like that in the media who spread their stuff to the more ignorant NBA fans.

    Any way, lets turn the above sentence around: There are people who deep down in their heart want Yao to do better than Tmac. There are a TON of these people.

    As some fat guy once said: Athletes aren't role models, parents are role models.

    wrong

    he is exactly right

    Name one team that depends ONLY on their center.

    ONE

    can you?

    then his point was not absurd.

    Sorry, I missed the only. My bad, but if I read it correctly the first time, I would have not even replied because it is a common sense that not a single player can do that, not even Jordan. You need to have Shaq and Kobe. Jardan and Pippen, Dream with a bunch of other players. That statment has no information at all. Am I right?

    off course there are more YOF because 1.3b population. The thing I don't like is that people need to be truthful and respect others. Don't label people who like Yao better than Tmac as YOF. You love your players and I love my players. You want your players do better and I want my players do better. There is nothing wrong with it.
