How good would this team be right now with a healthy Yao?

    I think yao would have done more with a pure shooter like martin at the wing then a ball dominating tmac.

    No comparison...

    1) The team that you see out there now would not be the same.. It would not be the same offense as you see now. So the numbers you see by PPat, lowery and etc would change, since they would try to feed the ball down low. The offense will be what it was when Yao was here.

    2) Yao would be no good what-so-ever this season.. The back-to-back-to-back games would kill him along with the play every other night games.

    So putting Yao into this scenario with this team would change everyone's game.

    Give me Olajuwon, healthy Sampson, and drug-free Lucas, Mitchell, and Wiggins. Hell that team was finals-bound by Olajuwon's 2nd year and battling against GOAT Lakers/Celtics teams.
