    Centers like Yao are too rare. He's the best center in the NBA now.

    Just look at how the bucks overpaid 5 years/72.5 million to keep bogut

    compare that to Yao's 5 yr/75 million.

    Let me debunk the fallacy.

    Bogut: 72.5 m/5 years/82 games = 0.1768 m/game.

    Yao: 75 m/5 years/30 games (after factoring in the injury variable)=0.5 m/game

    We pay Yao per game of service 3 times more than what the Bucks pay Bogut!

    Yao for Bogut + R Jefferson. Get it done Morey!

    Yao is the nicest, cleanest player since Dream. He is a PR dream. He is the most known player to play the game, and forever will be. With that said, i don't know if he can win a championship. Can he? Really?

    It's really funny how everyone jumps on the guy who talks about trading Yao, yet when people talk about trading McGrady people are all aboard. It's funny because Yao hasn't played more than 57 games in a season since 2004-2005, hasn't impressed as leader when T-Mac has gone down to injury, and most importantly has a much higher trade value than T-Mac.

    *Let the flaming begin*
