    ROFL, now you have gotten so low to attack other people's language skill. If you still do not know, I was just quoting what you had said in your own previous post. So you are attacking your own language skill, fool.

    I thought the quotation marks would give you a hint.

    I was relpying to Jsub......Using George and Shawn as bad players not their style of play...... Because height = skill even if I was as tall as Yao.

    No, he's just over sized.

    I agree with some of the posters in this thread:

    I'd prefer Yao to use quick baby hooks as opposed to that fadeaway. One of the things I really hate about that fadeaway is that Yao is so slow that once he executes that move there is no way he has any chance at an offensive rebound.

    just in: yi jianlian is a better face-up long range shooter than yao :D

    anyway, was watching bucks and magic game on tv. yi is a MUCH BETTER shooter than i thought. bucks got killed in the 3rd by a bunch of 3's. anyway, looking forward to watch yao versus yi soon :)

    i wonder if yi can block yao :p

    I saw that game too. The Magic destroyed the Bucks and Yi fouled out of the game in garbage time. I think you left those details out.

    its amazing how he's starting. you know that was in his contract.
    how come Yao never got that sweet deal?

    i know you are looking forward to see the Bucks vs the Rockets. but we're going to beat them by 20 points also. This would be the Scola breakout game if Yi is going to guard him.

    I'm sure Charlie Villanueva was happy about that.

    I'm sure he's circling the Rockets game on his calendar for the Yao vs Yi matchup.

    Will Yao put that signature fade-away on him? :p

    Charlie V. sucks. Check the stats, tinman.

    Yao will make Yi his biatch ... oh wait, they don't play the same position. :mad:

    sucks against the rest of the other starting PFs yes. but come on man! for a rookie who played against srubs in an inferior league?

    I know this, but that won't stop like 90% of the fans/media to call it a Yao vs Yi matchup.

    Its like when De La Hoya ate some more food so he can face Brad Hopkins in his own weight class. Hopkins whipped him.

    well, just judging by last night's game. charlie v. sucked. he was basically jacking up shots and not making many of them.

    ya, yao will destroy yi if he plays straight up defense. well, doesn't matter. yao will destroy anyone bucks put on him. unless they double team him all game long.
