I hate to jump on the Meat and Potatoes bashing but cmon man we talkin about Eddy Curry. Yao is a top two center if not the best center in the league. He has the ability to dominate games with his low post game. He demands a double team all the time and this allows people like alston and battier to get open threes. He has so many shots and even though he doesnt dunk like dwight; I think his shooting touch and low post savy by far make up for his unathleticism. Dwight Howard has little low post game but the man can fly. I kno its not the flashy brand of basketball many want to watch but he plays in a way that is condusive to winning in the playoff. Slow the game down and play great defence that is how championships are won. He is the Rockets most valuable player and mayb a top 5 MVP candiate. Eddy Curry has no post game and is fat. Amare Stoudamire couldnt do anything without Nash and he cant guard centers thats why they traded for Shaq. Elton Brand has injury problems and does not have the same post game as Yao. Camby cant play half the game and cmon Okafor cant shoot FT or play offensively like Yao. And of course Eddy Curry is turrible
It's a shame that this board is being swarmed by morons like you. And it's a shame that morons like you abuse the privileges by starting r****ded threads like this. Are you morons trying to bring this wonderful forum down to the level of the ESPN boards?
i'm sure all of this takes place in that other world you live on. you know the one where the great wall is a soft average center who in a heartbeat you would trade for Eddy Curry. you are one funny dud.
how did i act tough again? i expressed my feelings about how Yao has been playing. Since then, i reread the post and thought about it in a more sensible way. i realize that it may seem to some that i only made this thread to bash Yao for having a bad game, and i've already said that i made it to openly discuss Yao. I'm sorry if that doesn't satisfy you. I was never overwhelmed with anger. I think you bought into the punch lines a little too much with all the other you-know-whats from here.
No matter how angry anyone ever gets with Yao, there exists no excuse for confusing this stat line: 13.7 ppg / 4.8 rebs / .5 bpg / .6 apg (Curry ) with this one: 22.2 ppg / 10.8 rebs / 2.1 bpg / 2.4 apg Yao This is not a debate. One is significantly, inarguably, absolutely better than the other. Say what you will about toughness, grit, heart, or any other immeasurable quantities. I'll take the guy that's averaging a double double.
Just admit that you are a passively aggressive coward. You wilted when the heat was on. You should have used yourself as an example for this r****ded thread. You are the definition of being soft.
Has been playing? You make it sound as if he's been sucking for as long as Tmac has been sucking. Last game, Yao put up 25/14/3blk against the Kings. Learn that everyone has bad games. When Yao puts up 36/19, he's not the greatest center in history. And when he puts up 3-17, he isn't Eddy Curry.
bull****,dam,mo ther fu cker,please tell me how many big soft average 20ppg 10rpg 2apg 2bpg center in this league.idiot!!!!!!111
The room was awash in tales of fiction and many chortles could be heard. A toast said one. "Raise your glass for this was a right merry story". Methinks our young lad has been in the fields too long and has eaten too many nutmegs. And so it was written. Let the flaming continue.
Dude, you are weaker than a sick kitten. First you tried to bring up race in the discussion because you moronically believed that it would a fool like yourself more convincing. Now you try to label people who call you out on this dumb thread a ***. Seriously, can you engage in a discussion/debate without using these lame tactics?
the eddie curry thing needs to die already. i was going to go into details about that but thought it was pointless and i just forgot to take his name off. and i never said he was a "soft average center", you're just trying to make me look as bad as you can. The words i used were good, and above average. look at it how you want, but just cause i have my own opinion, don't freak out about it. you can still believe in whatever you want to.
and please, take out these name as well: Elton Brand(where is he? in some hospital?), Emeka OKafor, Bynum, Camby....
I hope you are lying there. A thread like this started by a 25 years old should be considered a tragic event in the history of human civilization. You are the reason why people can make a case for birth control.
