    Um ok, since I have nothing to gain or lose by this deal, do whatever you like. I am not promoting McGrady posts whatsoever. :p

    You put Landry in there? Seriously? haha
    I guess the soft player right now is Andersen. Maybe he's just getting used to the higher amount of contact here, but he is pretty soft. Haven't really seen Budinger taking too much contact either but he is performing real well.
    Seriously though.. Landry? Did you miss the dunks on the Lakers? Did you miss the monster dunk from the Raptors game a while ago? See any crucial blocks?
    I'm biased cuz I'm a fan of Landry lol.. ignore me I guess.
    Below is the dunk with the raptors I'm talking about.

    Im sorry there guy but your post concludes a lot of BS and no background check on those past stories.

    A lot of those blocks by shorties are from behind where that player just jumped before Yao started his shot and usually not even all ball....if you know where that goes.

    Alot of Yaos soft is because that what he limited too by the reffing. This guy has be adjusting his game every year, roughing it up little by little finding how much the refs will let him go and still almost fouling in the first half.

    so stop being one sided....


    Shane battier, taking damage from every which direction, spilling blood more then any of the other team mates and still playing, yah okay guy.

    Why the hateraid on these two dudes?

    Car Laundry does not deserve to be in there... he is a hard man unlike people who run away abandoning women whenever faced with danger.

    Given the fact that the woman wasn't harmed and there was obviously some foul play involved, I wouldn't play with someone else's otherwise great rep by making such pretentious, dismissive assumptions.

    Strangely enough, I couldn't find any stats on erectile dysfunction. Not even on Basketball Prospectus.

    ...or are you using a different definition of soft?

    You know what tinman I think deep down inside you really love tracy, you're just mad at him right now because he's not the player he once was. So you're hurt and the only thing that makes you feel better is to attack him.

    What is the point of this thread? I don't understand why hate Tmac so much when he is the only guy that give this freaking team some hope. This is unbelievable. This thread might as well include Yao.

    Like I said, if anyone decide to bash on Tmac or Yao, they might as well include the other one.

    I assumed you pick Car Landry cause that was the only other choice.

    that would be too easy, the original poster did not want to make this thread easy.

    this thread is what it is.

    Hey, look, a Yao hater! Looks like the NBA season is about to get underway!

    Seriously, you really want to call Yao soft?

    Tallness: "someone that tall..." = Shawn Bradley? Oh, did you see how he ducked out of the way when TMac dunked on him against the Mavs, in the playoffs? Yeah, Shawn let TMac get his, before going off for 50 points, right? Hmm...

    Tallness does not always equate greatness. Out of everyone who was 7'3" or above, Yao was the most dominant out of his group. You're forgetting that Yao doesn't have the athleticism of a Dwayne Wade, or the freakish god-given talent of Dwight Howard. What Yao has, Yao utilizes to the best of his ability. He tries the hardest, yet gets criticized, and youtube'd when he gets dunked on, or when he gets blocked. What player hasn't been blocked? Even centers get blocked by Kobe/Dwayne/LeBron.

    If you're going to base a player's toughness on size and height, then what about Shawn Bradley? That guy got dunked on by just about everyone. At least Yao has made a name for himself in the NBA.

    And I don't know what you were thinking when you said Battier is soft. Just because a guy sticks to the game plan night in and night out, doesn't get heckled by other players (see Rockets vs. Lakers 2009 playoffs), and prefers to stay away from trash talking doesn't make him soft.

    HAHAHA! Classic...


    It certainly is not the car laundry.

    Tracy is as mentally soft as a player can get.


    He has quit on his team, thrown his team under the bus, and generally pissed on management several times.


    Never forget.
