    No. Yao Mean is more efficient than the Superman to Rocks.
    If we have the Superman, may he'll get 15+ rebounds as before, but he won't score 20+, because his attempts will not as many as in Orlando.
    The thing is, Scole or Lardry won't have current good performance when the Superman in our team.

    I think he is saying trade Yao Ming for Clark "Superman" Kent. :D

    (I am inferring this because he says: "...dunk like Howard...") :D

    Successful Trade Scenario
    Congratulations on a successful trade.

    Due to Houston and Phoenix being over the cap, the 25% trade rule is invoked. Houston and Phoenix had to be no more than 125% plus $100,000 of the salary given out for the trade to be accepted, which did happen here. This trade satisfies the provisions of the Collective Bargaining Agreement.

    I don't know the name of the Magic's GM, but I know one thing is valid. Through the traded that GM made with Dawson to send tmac and JH and lue and gaines for SF and cat and cato, I know that what is filled with the Magic GM's head is not water or some other thing alike. So... ... Even though nothing is impossible in NBA, trading the Ming Crap Yao for DH is still hopeless.

    Thank you. So sorry to have misunderstanding here. When I mentioned the superman, I had none of Howard in my mind, I never consider him as the superman. I just think of the superman in the film. :p You see, we still have the best center in our team. And howard, two or three years later, may be the best, but not now.
    And sorry again , I really don't know if there was a similar thread before.

    ive always liked juan dixon. combo guard who should be a decent 3rd string pg. wanted to package him with mcgee for head and dorsey.

    washington gets a shooter which should improve their 3pt percentage and a banger inside in dorsey.

    we get a combo guard in dixon who can play spot minutes at point for a year and a decent athletic 7" young kid .

    unfortunately, im not sure washington would want dorsey over mcgee. i, however, think that they would like a shooter like head.


    or trade luther + dorsey for any of the ff guys: steven hunter(DEN), Hibbert (IND), Villanueva (MIL). but i figure hunter may be the only realistic trade.

    Oh yes, it can't be done...

    Shane Battier should be officially tradeable after his bad performance he showed against the Pacers...

    come on, it was the freckin Pacers we lost to, AT HOME. With Shane not doing much except chucking up shots.

    OH LOL.

    Well then it's totally reasonable now. Isn't Superman a free agent at the end of this season? We should totally try to sign him up IMO. I think he won't mind if he gets a cut in his salary since we're a little capped at the moment.

    Dwight's FT shooting will cost his team a NBA championship, if he ever gets into the Finals.

    Yao scored 22 points, including 6 points in the second half when the score was close throughout. "Dominate" is a bit much, don't you think?

    I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure OP was not referring to Dwight Howard when he said "superman".

    If I read him right, he's saying that people expect too much out of Yao and that he gets blamed unfairly for his perceived shortcomings, and you might as well trade him for Superman (the superhero, not the basketball player) as there is no real player who could possibly do the things we ask of him.
