TRADE YAO?! You're an idiot! Do you think Jermaine O'neal and whoever you listed would do better than Yao in a staff of garbage players? NO. JERMAIn or KG would just get Double Teamed all day and the rockets would be in even worse situation. KG or O'Neal would have to pass the ball out and if he's surrounded by a staff worse than yao is, they'd just brick the ball all day. The only person who can truly stand the test of double team is MJ. Everyone else struggles.
Don't you forget TMac's 19 consecutive losses record? Don't you forget TMac intentionally not play hard with his former team? Don't you forget TMac is the only scoring champion that never passes the first round playoff? Don't you forget TMac sat on the bench hopelessly watching in game 7 while Yao was still playing hard? Don't you forget TMac demanded trade when he was in Orlando while Yao is loyal to his team? Get real, if we want to trade one of Yao and TMac, it will be TMac.
http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl...kn/3477072.html Yao Ming, Stromile Swift and Derek Anderson Traded to Kings for Brad Miller, Mike Bibby and Shareef Abdur-Rahim. By JONATHAN FEIGEN Copyright 2005 Houston Chronicle HOUSTON - The Rockets' are the first team this season to make a major trade. Struggling and desperate from an early losing streak, the Rockets have traded one of their supposed franchise players and two of their recent off-season acquisitions. "Jeff and I were talking and did not like the direction this team was heading in. We aren't playing hard and I am willing to give up our players if they do not play hard enough," Rockets General Manager Carroll Dawson Said "Despite injuries from several of our top players, we decided that these three players were responsible for their losses. I initially did not want to trade Yao due to his steady development and relatively increased aggression this year, but after this string of losses, I thought this would be the best way to punish him." Rockets coach Jeff Van Gundy said. "Most of all, I am really looking forward to having Mike Bibby, Rafer Alston, Bob Sura, Moochie Norris, Luther Head, Dion Glover and David Wesley sharing responsibilities at the point." Van Gundy said that he had never considered the possibility of trading Yao until he got the idea from a Rockets online forum. "I brought the idea to Carroll and Les and they agreed that Yao really sucks right now. One of these basketball gurus online seemed to really know his stuff and we decided, what the hell, let's listen to this apparent brilliant person instead. Yao Mink has not been playing well, and we knew that the trade value for Yao Mink was still enough for us to get an equally talented player like Brad Miller." Les Alexander agreed, "We always thought that by drafting a player like Yao, we would get a lot of money since there are like a billion people in China and they would all buy his jersey. When Jeff showed us this post online, I re-thought things and realized that there are a bunch of white people in the United States and they have more money! I am sure all the white people in the US will be buying Brad Miller jerseys which should increase profits and recognition of our team. Additionally, Shareef will bring in the whole Muslim population and we know there are a lot of those too. It's like trading the profit of one race for two! I thought we got a damn good deal." When Tracy McGrady was asked about his response to the trade, he responded, "My back hurts." Forward Stromile Swift was also positive about the trade, "Houston is great but I always wanted to live in a city with more celebs. Overall, I'm pretty excited about moving to Los Angeles and playing for the Kings."
Im in before the lock I said before: Im happy with Yao in the rockets but if the wolves offer KG I take it. (I know that isnt going to happen)
You must be new to this board if you ask this question. And if you are new to this board, according to some people, there is a good chance that you are a yof too. I think I have given you enough hints to guess what a yof is.
Yao or JVG? Yao left, then Tmac will stay? Why he want to come here? The only reason I want to trade yao is : he frustrate everyone, include his teammates. He is slow, butter fingure, TO machine, easy tired, enbarass our fans and it's really hard to play with him. JVG is really need to think to listen to SF#:"free" our guards and let yao play a D role player. This league is belong to guards. Who can tell me what kind of player JVG bring in and average age of them(don't include Tmac, cause Tmac want to be trade) after he came to Rox.
Great news for the smoking posters. Post more. JVG and CD are listening to you. Van Gundy said that he had never considered the possibility of trading Yao until he got the idea from a Rockets online forum.
I think Nets would be very like to trade Vince Carter for Yao. that make them much more balanced , Kid, Yao, Jeffson and Christichi are pretty much a championship structure. But look at Rox team, it's hard to believe we can win champs. so we can see the problem is not on Yao, is on role player. we don't have good players in other three positions except Tmac and Yao, how can we beat like Spur (TD, parker, Manu, bowen, Horry and Finley) and Piston, No way... ever
