    Yao was better than Dwight. The only reason Howard made deep playoff runs was because the competition was so weak out east. Howard got the hype as the gret defensive player, but Yao was almost as good, and substantially better offensively.

    The head to head record between the two people was extremely lop-sided

    7-2

    Yao
    23.6 PPG
    10.4 RPG
    2.1 BPG
    56% FG

    Howard
    12.2 PPG
    9.8 RPG
    1.7 BPG
    45% FG


    But Yao was fragile, howard isn't. In the long run that trumps all. Unfortunately Yao will never get the chance to prove he was better, so popular opinion will reign that Howard was better.

    In the running for the most tragic pairing of players in sports history.

    I think it is a perfectly valid statement. Howard is good, but Yao was pretty damn good as well until hee broke down.
