    I think they will just shut down the broadcasting on that night and then blame it on power outage. I hear they learned it from a poster here who'd lie to put people on his imaginary ignore list when the going gets tough in an argument and he can't face the tough questions anymore.

    Why does Dwight Howard get so much more praise than Yao from the national media. If you ask coaches who would they rather have most I think will pick Yao. But the pundits are all over Howards' jockstarp. Thats what makes me mad.

    or if he didn't get posterized so much - that would definitely help him out....

    Yao will never get the respect he deserves... if he wins 1 ring.... they will say he didnt win 2 rings like... etc..etc. yada yada...

    every improvement he makes... above being called the "biggest bust in the history of the NBA"

    makes me happy for him... to me he has gone father than ever expected...
    yet I can still see lots of room for improvment still....


    I could careless if he go not respect from anyone....

    except maybe the Ref's

    and to some extent players who are guarding him... and who may try to hurt him...

    after all these people are human... and not robots... and sterotypes do affect peoples judgements...

    as a Canadian living in the far east... I see it everyday from older well to do educated...expats from North America...

    i totally disagree if wilt played adonal foyle or any of todays centers he would have never scored 100 points. wilt played (in the prime of his career) against a bunch of white boys like me who were 6'4". sorry but last time i checked the level of athelete in the nba today is far superior to the era wilt scored 100 in. :rolleyes:

    "Yeah Yao scored 100, but the opposing team's starting and backup centers fouled out at the 75-point mark, and they only had third-, fourth-string centers for the rest. So it can't really count as a truly dominant performance." :p

    Actually, 23*4 is pretty close to 100

    shark scores 20 points every game while he plays his best, but yao scores 100 in one game and 30 in the next one, that is very inconsistant, and you can not say that is a dominat big man for your team.
