Antonio Davis just incresed to 29% and Yao and Ben down to 19%. I just put my vote in for Yao, hope eveyone else here does the same.
thats crap. the only two from that list that will potentially become superstars are Yao Ming and Jermaine O'neal. How the hell would Pau Gasol ever hold his weight against a center??? Sure he's good, but not as a center.
Just chalk it up to patriotism because no one is as valuable to his team from the center posistion as Yao. Antonio Davis, you've come a long way from being a sixth man in Indiana haven't you? Shows what hard work and dedication and staying off the peace pipe can do for you in the NBA.
Here is a link for those of us too lazy to type. Vote for Yao here ! It is on the left side about 1/2 way down the page. DD
DANG! O'Neal got a boost. When I voted for Ming, I saw Ming at 19% and O'Neal at 31%. (1st and 2nd I believe.) Edit:After seeing another post, I think I misread. Stupid Gypsy Curse!
I just voted and now it looks like this. Antonio Davis, U.S. 31% Jermaine O'Neal, U.S. 19% Yao Ming, China 18% Ben Wallace, U.S. 13% Vlade Divac, Yugoslavia 9% Pau Gasol, Spain 8% Raef LaFrentz, U.S. 1% Other 1%
I wouldn't mind it so much had O'Neal or Vlade would be first, but Davis?! That said, I do agree that out of those choices, Ming will be the best center, although that Other guy sure can put up a fight. (though this is just out of this year, and not the future.)
Here is the update: Who will emerge as the best center at the World Basketball Championship? Antonio Davis, U.S. 30% Yao Ming, China 20% Jermaine O'Neal, U.S. 18% Ben Wallace, U.S. 12% Vlade Divac, Yugoslavia 10% Pau Gasol, Spain 7% Other 2% Raef LaFrentz, U.S. 1% The results bite...
