LOL, all three of those guys would have killed the folding Yao who we have seen this series. It wouldn't have even been close. Those guys took their game to the next level in the playoffs. Yao took his game back to three years ago.
Um Suns have 3, Spurs have 3, Mavs have 3. The difference is Rockets need Battier to become their 3rd and these "scrubs" to play Decent, nothing more than decent and we will become damn good.
Part of the problem is Yao doens't get close to the number of calls that those other guys would have received. At this point in his career when Yao gets hacked by 3 defenders, half the time the officials don't blow the whistle.
