Buzzmaster: (12:27 PM ET ) A'ight .. let's here from the Rocket fans. You guys printing your Finals tickets yet? Ron (Houston): It is to early to print Finals tickets here in Houston, but Yao will definitely be printing some Spalding tattoo's on any players dumb enough to try and take it to the hole against him. Buzzmaster: (12:30 PM ET ) Spalding tattoos .. that's a good one. http://dynamic.espn.go.com/espn/chat/chatESPN?event_id=2265#bottom *The chat is still going on now. I guess this is my 15 minutes of fame. At least I got it defending something or someone I believe in!
Did you see some of the idiots that posted on there? Buzzmaster: Let's start with his overall game .. does he have the skills? rochester: yao stinks and will last mabye a year he is no match for shaq or any other center in the league. Houston: Yao will be good but have a short career. He is schedualed to play year round, burnout and injuries will shorten his career and the Rockets will never get there money's worth. Tom (Charlotte): This guy is not nearly physical enough to compete in the NBA ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ And that's judging after one game...sucks!
thats after one great game. 13-11-6, how much more do these people want? if those numbers get him "yao stinks" then maybe 20-15-8 would get him "he is ok, but not great", and 25-18-10 might start earning him respect. OMG!!! compare his numbers to those of the USA big men and see how they mach up.
