    he just said it on TNT.

    right. Camby is the 3rd best player on his team. He does absolutely nothing on the offensive end. complete bs

    Camby: 9.5 pts, 14.4 rbs, 3.9blk
    Yao: 22.4 pts, 10.7 rbs, 2.3 blk

    tell me Charles, how many teams gameplan for yao and how man gameplan for Camby?

    always hating

    Charles just doesn't respect Yao.

    Not sure why, exactly, considering they have the same number of rings

    Barkely has been hating on Yao and talking up Camby for years. He's made this same exact suggestion in the past.

    Because you know, +3.7 rebounds and +1.6 blocks is worth -12.9 points (ignoring that Yao gets his numbers on a much slower-paced team, and at much higher FG% too).

    in his followup interview with Melo about the all star thing, he says Denver's defense isn't that good. If Camby was so damn good, shouldn't his defense elevae everyone else? I'll tell you why, because his blocks are weakside blocks, he cannot anchor a defense.

    He spews this crap every year at this time.

    If you ignore it, it goes away.

    Just like the Simpson's Tresshouse of Horror where all the adverisments come to life.

    Look away, and they will die.... :D

    meanwhile he ignores Chris Kaman who has comparable stats to Camby but doesn't have the luxury of having AI or Melo playing with him

    Kaman: 17.4 ppg, 14 rbs, 3.1 blks

    Now how the hell does he overlook that??

    It wasn't just Charles, the whole crew (Ernie & Magic) agreed with him. Unbelievable.

    They don't rate Yao. People still don't rate Yao. In a recent article about Nene they quoted the most talented players in that draft and included Stoudamire etc.....but no mention of Yao.

    Im confused sometimes if these people even consider him a top tier centre or that his already reached this stage. I don't get how Dwight gets all these credits when he gets absolutly schooled by Yao.

    This comes as no surprise. How often do you hear any of the TNT guys say something complimentary about the Rockets?
