I agree that Sampson's ceiling was much higher than Yao's initially. That's the reason why I drew post-1987 Sampson as a comparison. He was...
Did any of you see Rik Smits play? All he did was shoot jumpshots, and he was a much worse rebounder and shot-blocker than Yao. His best year,...
First of all, Yao is clearly a better player than Rik Smits. Those of you who expected Shaq though...were expecting way too much. It's a little...
I love how people around here are finally coming around to realizing Yao's limitations and are surprised and getting angry about it It's simple...
Yes, but we'll be the ones blowing the Mavericks out. It'll only be reminiscent in that it'll be 40 points again. ;)
er...second Rockets finally get their act together and blow them out
It's discouraging to see that these weaknesses are the exact same ones we had last season. Right now, since Tracy is still out...I'd go with...
It's Garnett's game...he gets most of his points off face-up 15 footers. He has a back to the basket, low-post game...but it's secondary. His...

Guys give Texas Stoke a break. He's not a Yao hater. He's actually really critical of all the Rockets players whenever they screw up. He's...
I don't believe it's an issue of ethnicity, but I do believe that the many people in the league have a subconscious prejudice against guys like...
Hah, yeah i don't know. I didn't watch it that carefully.
Ok, this YOH/YOF feud is getting utterly ridiculous. What kind of self-respecting adult would let anything anyone says on the FREAKIN' INTERNET...
From the replay it sorta looked like he tripped and as a result, his elbow met Wallace's face. I would've loved for it to have been intentional...
I'm still trying to figure out how we outrebounded them by 13...yet managed to take 12 less shots. Shouldn't there have been second chance...
I'm betting there will still be posts tomorrow about how Wesley and Yao cost us this game. :p
