The Rockets would have averaged even fewer points, and Mutombo would have been owned by Boozer as badly as Yao did.
AK was sitting in a corner crying. Giricek is not a ferocious defender. Fisher is almost 8 inches shorter than McGrady. Harpring is slow. None of...
Did they double him? No? Maybe showed on screens? All of the defenders they sent at McGrady were extremely flawed defenders. AK was in a sh*thole,...
This is revisionist history. McGrady didn't get double teams either. He consistently got single coverage by AK, Giricek, Fisher, or Harpring. Yao...
not guilty != innocent
Not the broken-down old version of Shaq that we see now, but if I could trade Yao now for a prime Duncan or prime Shaq, I'd do it in a heartbeat,...
I remember we had a poll on this a while back, and a majority of votes (around 60%) supported trading McGrady for Kobe. For me it depends on what...
Yao gets dunked on. The highlights are there. But you want to bring them up to show that he's a big Chinese stiff. I bring up...
I agree with this. I predict that once the season starts we will see Yao primarily in the low post and only as a changeup he'll come up high for a...
He may be a bit harsh on McGrady, but I agree with Calvin. I think Yao will end up in the low post most of the time once the season starts....
Is there any other reason? Yao and Yi have exactly one thing in common. Seriously, all great centers have been on the wrong end of memorable...
Vince Carter absolutely SH*T on Zo, he absolutely SH*T on Duncan. Lebron crumpled Duncan to the floor. Jordan posterized Ewing several memorable...
Duncan, Mourning, and Ewing have been on the wrong end of many posters, because they tried to block the dunk. So if Yao gets dunked on a few...
You were arguing that Yao was not capable of handling the #1/1a scoring role, and I disagree. That's why I brought up McGrady, since he is the...
The reason Yao is open is because they want him to shoot jumpers rather than owning them in the paint. This is what we DON'T want. Yao was fine...
You make good points, but 1.) Yao is our #1/#1a scorer. Why do we want to make it harder for one of our superstars to score? Because it might...
I think everyone knows that being a proficient low-post scorer is superior to being able to shoot and create from the high post, because the shots...
I agree 100%. Yao needs to be primarily a low post player.
I really, really, really don't want Yao to play like this. I saw this video looking up some Brad Miller tape yesterday and shuddered. There is a...
I've him enough to know that I'd rather have Yao in the post. Yao is one of the two best post players in the NBA, and Bonzi is not the other one....
