i put this up on nbadraft.net because i love shutting up yao haters i really like what he's doing to the team this year, a dynasty ruled through virtue and results. Yao ming checklist: take cato's spot as a starter: check (makes for a hell of a backup) lead his team in points and rebounds: check check lead the game in points, rebounds and blocks:check check check earn shaq's respect: check dominate the twin towers:check give bradley a facial and make him cry:check impress the hell out of jordan:check convert a lot of haters: check make a lot of prejudiced haters realize how small their penises are: check gain majority support for rookie of the year: check double doubles: check check triple double: pending quadruple double:maybe next year have people compare him to all the greatest centers in the league (dream, wilt, even shaq!): check no more bradley, mureasean, bol comparisons: check make charles barkley kiss an ass: check lead the league in shooting percentage, and adj shooting percentage BY A LOT: check become a sex symbol: holy crap how the hell... check have his jersey shown for sale on the rocket site (sorry steve, we still love you): check make a three pointer: waiting lead the rooks in production per 48: check all star game: its coming, you know it make shaq look silly and force him into retirement: long shot but how many anti-yao predictions have come true yet? less than the number of balls i have break one of wilt chamberlain's records: check, the sex with women record is next (ok, nm) break the record for highest fg% for a rook: in the making reinforce 'kwame is a bust' flash backs in that wizards game: check, kwame: thought it was over, didnt ya? made some key clutch game winnning shots: check get opposing center in foul trouble in first quarter: check shag a cheerleader on the court after hitting a game winning shot: im waiting send the rockets to the playoffs: in the making MVP: not far down the road champs ring: with franchise and cat? no problem compare the next 7'4 plus rookie to yao: ten years from now or never ever again foul out or get a technical: not yet making the media and sports analysts look stupid: glad someone can finally do it completely change the rocket's style of ball: check have a 7'9 kid who plays above the backboard: next dynasty, yao junior accidentally step on colin pine: probably add more if you want, oh yeah, too bad yao-haters have ran out of ammo except for "uh..shaq will kill him" or "uh.. he'll get tired" as for the second one, its because he plays harder than others, ever see how many offensive rebound putbacks he got after a fast break because he was the first one back AFTER HIS OWN BLOCK. yeah, add more, its fun
China will not release him on time - check He is ONLY a jump shooting Center - Wrong! he has an assortment of downlow moves - check Will not justify being the #1 pick in the draft -Sorry! He has quited his doubters - Check Make Mark Cuban look stupid - Check. Make fellow western conference potential playoff opponents uncomfortable - check Loved and respected by his teammates because he has game - check Filling the seat in compaq center with the help of the Franchise - Check and in the works.... A great ambassador of Basketball and the people of China - Check Check Check.
This is a great post. That's alot Yao has done in 16 games. He also got dunked on, blocked, and ankles broken(by Marbury). Now, he doesn't have to worry about that stuff anymore. Getting embarrased , and putting it behind him------check.
Getting many ppl to sign up for CC.net -- ONE BIG ASS CHECK!!! Leaving doubters with nothing else to say except for racial slurs -- ANOTHER BIG CHECK!!!
making me love all asian athletes. all the way from turkey to india, kazakhstan-china, bangladesh to korea............... go ASIA
