    Yeah, but throw in Villanueva and Calderon and Howard/Swift.

    Regarding many parts of your post.. I would go saying that you're lying. But I think that you just don't know what the hell are you talking about.
    Don't talk about salaries and especially about pollution and equal trades if you don't know a heck about it. Some might even ask you what do you know about human rights there..
    Your posts sound even more freakin' weard when you post them on BB forum.

    Nice reply. To the point and hopefully all Rocket fans can see that Yao & TMac not only need one another, but they need more confident players around them, such as Luther Head. NICE Rookie.

    i think if yao was out and tmac had to carry the team i think we would struggle just as much as we struggled without tmac...our role players arent good enough for us to win without one of our stars...

    look at how the magic were like when it was just tmac and a bunch of scrubs...yao and tmac compliment each other and that is what makes us a good team not just one individual...

    The biggest blunder in Rockets history was selecting Dream ahead of Sam Bowie.

    This thread looks so ridiculous now.

    could'nt believe rox lost -15p to raptors,
    gez!
    "the worst NBA team"-raptors won their 1st road game after 12 straight road loss. maybe they just want to transfer this title to rox and they succeed.

    this team is just like a house built on water without yao, falling so fast;
    rox can combat any other teams if yao is present on court, but also need TMAC to finish them eventually.


    uh, I like to say, if we need consistent victories,
    YAO IS THE BASE, and TMAC IS THE KEY

    Someone start TMAC EXPOSED.

    "He's a good player and all but he can't carry his team. I don't care if he's playing with my sister's kids but a great player has to be able to will his team to victory. He has to be the man and dominate games. Otherwise he's just a roleplayer..."

    Yao is a good center....a very good center in a league that has changed the rules to emphasize guards and jumpshots over post play.

    I can not help but think that if Yao played in the early to mid 90s he would be a 25pt 11 rebound guy.

    But with teams being able to double team him WITHOUT the ball, it hurts him more than others.

    His game is not one of quickness but rather intelligence, and that can be mitigated by quicker shorter players, especially when there are 2 or more guarding him.

    it's really sad that because of these warped and lofty expectations put on yao, no one is happy with anything he does. yao is a very good center, one of the best in the league. there isnt a team in the NBA that wouldnt love to have yao has their center. instead of embracing him like true fans should, we always find a way to knock him. arent we supposed to support our players? yao is a likable guy who loves houston and plays his heart out for his team, coach and the city. i feel really bad for the guy. nothing he does will shut these idiots up

    2002: Yao Ming sucks. His coordination is so bad that he can't run and chew gum at the same time.

    2005: Yao Ming sucks. He can't jump over 3 defenders and then do a 720 windmill dunk.

    2012: Yao Ming sucks. He can't cure cancer. A 7'6" should be able to do more for mankind than only playing basketball.
