Yes, that same one. The same one that already has a higher career high than Yao. If the Rockets ever called offering that trade, Cleveland would laugh their a$$es off. If you think differently, go to any talk show or email Dr. Jack and ask him the question. Any person keyed into the NBA knows it would take a hell of a lot more than Yao to get LeBron.
but not more important to an ALL STAR GAME that is like saying Madame Curie should have been Ms Universe it ain't about anything but popularity . . . . folx should get beyond it Rocket River
You probably wouldnt get James for Yao but for TWO Yaos...I'm sure no one would pass. Keep one and then trade the other for lets say...JKidd
You obviously don't watch opponents broadcasts of Rockets games (DirecTv is great at not showing Bill Worrell and Calvin Murphy) Celtics (Bob Cousy) "Francis is in love with dribbling" Knicks (Walt Frazier) "Francis not seeing a wide open Yao" ESPN (Bill Walton) Rockets with a 3 on 1 fast break and Francis throws an over the shoulder pass to a fan in the front row: "That may be the worst fast break in Houston Rocket's history" The criticism on Francis' point guard play is all around the rest of the league. Who is blinded here?
pgabrial, playing the race card? Say it ain't so. Those are places that are based more on flash than on solid basketball. It has nothing whatsoever to do with race. Since I am defending Cat all of the time, it doesn't even make sense that I would bash Steve based on race. It isn't like I have been jocking Pike and Nachbar. What do all of these things have in common? REBOUNDING. Guess what, no one cares if our point guard can get 5-6 rebounds per game. That isn't going to make a significant impact on our team. There are plenty of point guards that can average 20 points (taking more shots than anyone else on the team) and 6 assists (with one of the worst A/TO ratios for a PG in the NBA). Some of us realize that we don't need rebounding from our guards, so when we see that the big statistical difference between Cat and Steve is rebounding, we recognize that that may as well be no difference. This should really all be in the Cat and Steve thread though.
dont worrry, this same guy belives mobley is a better player than francis, and that was BEFORE THIS SEASON!
thats why you hear all the coaches and players in their pre-game quotes talking about " We must eatch out for francis", or "francis is one of the most dangurous threats", or "The key is to do whatever it takes to stop francis, and let the other players get what they want".
Juuglie I get the impression you dont like Yao? hmmm.... You dissing on Yao for averaging 16 ppg after 100 games.. what about SF hes avg. 16.5 ppg this year. theres not much difference. J
I am beginning to believe that farhan007 is Steve Francis. 1. He is trying cover Steve's track at all cost. 2. He has no sense of humor. (This second point is by far the worse.)
hey juugie...why are you comparing our center to a PG? why dont u ask yourself why lebron is better than steve when steve is a max paid player? and no **** lebron is going to have more numbers than yao when he has more FGA stick to the thread topic.
Oh of course. Lebron lately averages 25 shots per game shooting 35%, getting about 23 PPG. I think the other teams are giving themselves pats on the back instead of being impressed what Lebron is doing.
LMAO. Lebron was leading the Cavs to another lottery, yet when he goes out, Carlos Boozer leads them to 5 wins out of 7. Funny thing isn't it? The Cavs recent hot streak coincides with Boozer's hot streak. Lebron who?
