    My top three...

    Yao Ming: I gotta say, I was a bit skeptical on how well he'd do. But, I've got to say, he's done great and definitely is my favorite player in the league. Even though we're down two of our "Stars", he steps up the plate and keeps up going for a month. Can't wait 'til he's back.

    Luis Scola: Can't deny this dude's heart. Even when the odds are against us, he steps up and just goes crazy on the other team. Deserved to be a top rookie last year, should be a top sophomore this year.

    Von Wafer: What can I say, this dude is wild. Nobody knew who he was, everyone thought he'd be a benchwarmer. All of a sudden, BAM, he's dropping down threes and dunking left and right. Must be the Frohawk.

    I went through this thread, and there seems to be a clear majority that Yao is in people's top 3-5 on their list. My question since I'm out in LA is how come when I watch the Rox on TV when they're playing at HOME that I don't see many peeps wearing his jersey? When the Rox play the Lakers, I always sport my Yao Jersey at Staples PROUDLY. What's up with that?

    I see a lot of people wearing Yao's jersey although T-Mac probably has the most.

    Yao is 2nd no doubt about it.
