If you are not happy for Yao getting into the Hall of Fame, you aren't a Rockets fan

Tinman being shown how stupid he is, and the subsequent no reply of substance.

Hakeem played for the Toronto Raptors

By your own standards, mentioned in your second last post. That disqualifies him from being considered a great in your eyes.

Why are you so stupid tinman?

You know how in 30 Rock Jack describes things as lemon - in reference to Liz Lemon - that's what Clutchfans will forever refer to idiotic posts.

"oh he tinman'd it"

Claiming Hakeem isn't the greatest Rocket of all time because he didn't play his entire career with one team - that's such a tinman thing to say.

I'll even completely skip past your complete disregard for the English language when you used the word 'learned'. You really tinman'd that comment.

 

It is not like most fans here are pro baller. Why should they be jealous about nothing?

Just two different galaxies here.

I am glad Yao did it but this poll is nothing to be proud of.

 

Leave it to the TOF to bring up T-Mac in a debate that wasn't revolving around T-Mac.

Leave it to tinman to make himself look idiotic as he resorts to his childish comments.

You really went full tinman in your last few posts. How embarrassing. They reek of desperation and are beyond cringe-worthy at this point.

 

It's nice Rockets currently have player that's already greater than Yao.

Yao Ming = 2nd round exit

James Harden = Western conference finals

Harden > Yao

 

roger federer has won 17 grand slam titles (plus 10 runners-up)...

 

As a NBA and Rockets fan, I can disagree with the laxed HOF requirements even if Yao is the beneficiary of them.

 

No offense, tinman, but this is one terribly sh#tty thread. Haha. Wanting to preserve the standards of the HOF is not hating on Yao or the Rockets. You lower the standards, you cheapen the accomplishment of Hakeem, Clyde, and others.

 

Congrats to Yao for his rightfully deserved induction.

Very good player and an even better person off the court.

He always carried himself with dignity and honor.

He was great for the league and city of Houston.

 

You know who else is a big Yao Ming fan? that's right, you guessed it . . . this guy.



:grin::grin:

 

Of fer fook's sake Tinman, this is a total non-issue.

 

Non-sequitor. The basketball hall of fame is NOT the NBA hall of fame.

 

It is a basketball hall of fame not an NBA hall of fame. It is a place to honor people who served the game.Even players or coaches who never played or coached can be inducted. Yao commited himself totally to the game. For the Rockets and China. Thats why he deserves to be in the Hall of Fame.

 

I'm a 99er, and I think that you a high for thinking that your analysis is fair, reasoned, accurate or a any combination of those labels.

 

So what? Yao is CHINESE!!!
