    Well then if Yao is the best center and "leader" of this team then I think he needs to do more than what he is doing. We will see how our center does with this up and coming weak schedule. But i guess he'll get a pass with any loss we get and McGrady will get all the blame

    What does it have to do with my post? Again my point is that it is stupid to use that ranking to decide the best center.

    b.s. my guess is that, after a loss, if yao does bad and tmac does well.. yao will get the blame, and vice versa. as it should be.

    JKILLAD23 is blind because he couldn't see all the Yao bashing after a loss.

    Actually with you and Kyakko idk what yall see. When the rockets lose you see nothing but T-Mac hate threads and all of them say the same thing. If we lose its either McGrady's fault for not playing cause he is hurt and trade his 21 mil contract for a better player blah blah blah. Its blame Rafer brick to my lou Alston. People even blame Aldeman because he doesn't play the players other people want to see. If im not mistaken Yao had a bad game against 76ers I don't really remember that game but who gets blamed for the lost. Not Yao. Yao didn't play against the Knicks and everyone is saying ooh its ok Yao get your rest. But McGrady is hurt and misses games its he is backstabbing the team this he is quiting on his teammates that. I'VE NEVER SEEN Yao get Bashed. I may have not been a member for long but I've sure have been reading other people's post

    What you said there is more than enough to prove my point. I may not have been a member for long either but I have been reading this forum. Based on what you said in the quote, there are only three possible explanations:

    (1) You are blind.
    (2) You can't read.
    (3) You are lying.

    Which one is true?

    a.) because you haven't been a member for so long.
    b.) when we lose, yao usually puts up 20 10 and tmac goes for 3-13.
    c.) you're having tunnel vision with thread selections.. this is the second thread with "yao and free pass" in the title in a month.
    d.) all the other reasons mentioned in this tread.

    if you can do a search look up "yao" and "soft" and you'll see exactly what i mean. i've said all i can in this thread.

    All you described was because of Yao's physical limitation, not laziness. Got it?

    Simple fact: T-Mac deserves more criticism than Yao.

    Oh, so now you backpedal and talk about the 'extent' only. many posters have already explained the reason in this thread. Unless you can't read, you can find the answer in this thread. I don't want to waste the bandwidth of this site to repeat with other people have said.

    So have you ever seen Yao get bashed? Man up to give me a yes or no answer please. Keep backpedaling and I guess that's the best you are do now.

    Idk what it is maybe you don't understand what im trying to say but my whole thing is Yao doesn't get as much bashing as he should the way McGrady does. I bet if McGrady opened his mouth and said his goal is to play all 82 games this site would have been flooded with McGrady threads just cause he missed one game. Yao said that and missed 3 games but everything is all lovey dovey. If T-Mac and Yao are leaders they both should get the same treatment.

    Just because people are less harsh to Yao does not mean Yao "gets a pass". Yao gets his fair share of harsh treatment when he underperforms.

    Yao never gets as harsh treatment from us as TMac does, I'll give you that though. The reason is simple, two words: work ethic. Do I really need to elaborate what has been said a thousand times here to show you how poor Tmac's work ethic is? Does it really need NINE months to rehab a MINOR knee surgery? What is more frustrating for the team than the whole team has to adjust to Tmac's own time table??

    Can you perhaps filter this list to show only those players with enough shot attempts to realistically qualify for best FG% in the league?
