Dude!
we need you to keep on joking

SWTsig · Feb 19, 2008

seriously, threads like this deserve a ban.

or at least a temporary moratorium on rookies starting threads.

TheBornLoser · Feb 19, 2008

Let's trade the thread opener to the New York Knicks for a Yao O Fan

Posters like you are the reason the GARM has been GARB over the past couple years.

why, because he expressed his opinion and the last I check, this is an opinion board....!

l3igballer23 · Feb 19, 2008

well im not gonna attack you like others on the board, however, i just want to let you know that everyone has off nights you can't expect someone to just come back after a five day rest and dominate at a 60 percent clip.

Also, he got 16 and 14 i don't think that exactly qualifies as soft... and mentioning eddy curry's name in the same sentence as yao ming doesn't exactly help your claim... watch eddy curry play and im pretty sure you will reconsider that statement... EDDY CURRY for YAO MING ????? heh lol

TheBornLoser · Feb 19, 2008

Hmmmmm eventhough Orlando beat Detroit by double digits today, Superman (aka Dwight Howard) only got 8 points and 8 rebounds!!!

Dwight Howard is SOFT! Let's trade Yao for Dwight Howard and the thread opener for a sack of Meat and Potatoes!

1) I totally disagree with the first post in this thread

2) I love the double standard that exists when it comes to criticizing Yao vs. criticizing McGrady

3) #2 was an attempt at sarcasm

2rings · Feb 19, 2008

You have my vote for worst post of the season and most likely poster to have an IQ below 50.

Sam, I think Clutch needs to come up with a negative ratings number. I'd give this thread somewhere around a minus seven. (that's a -7, so the thread starter can understand what I'm saying)

You forgot Erik Dampier and Jerome James. I saw them both dunk once. They are clearly superior to Yao.

Dwight Howard scored 8 points and got 8 rebounds tonight. His team blew out the Pistons, but I heard they are working the phones trying to trade him for Nazr Muhammad or Francisco Elson.

Centers like him are becoming instinct for a good reason. He's not atheletic, and he is too much of a liability. Don't get me wrong, he is an above average center, but the only reason he gets so much hoopla is for his race and height. PERIOD.

The guy is soft. He has times when he gets angry and throws down a dunk or powers his way inside, but 90% of the time, he's just soft and cannot get into the paint. He is talented at shooting and has a great touch.

His defense inside the paint, and his post-up moves are what make him a good center. His lankyness, clumsyness, softness, and chokeyness, are what keep him from being great and getting this damn team anywhere.

Honestly, i'd trade him for Dwight Howard, Amare Stoudamire, Eddie Curry, Elton Brand, Emeka OKafor, Bynum, possibly Camby.

I know how P Jack wants to use Yao. He wants to use him alot less than he's used to. Yao can be a huge factor to mix up the pace, or spread out the defense when NEED BE ONLY. He does need a double team at times, and of coarse this is good for the team, because it opens up the offense for the rest of the team, not Yao!(lol @ deke chanting the crowd after teh technical foul on landry).

I could go on with more insight and important facts, but this is already too long a read as most of you won't even be reading this much of what i've typed. Basically, Yao should not be our leader. I'm glad with him on this team, but it makes me sick how soft he is. I would like for Landry and Scola to get alot more minutes during the playoffs, as Yao will most likely venture into his nervous, soft, shakey habbits, and become nothing but a complete waste of a season for the whole team. Then again, him getting less minutes might do him some good. If he gets mad, that distracts him from being nervous.

I've said all these things after watching Yao play EVERY SINGLE game of his career. I root for him and hope he does great to this day and beyond. I'm only stating FACTS. The man is soft and weak, but talented, and tall.

chinese people believe anger is a weakness and Yao gets hammered and hammered nightly. He will never be a powerful force since he meditates his anger and frustrations away as these much smaller players continuously bully him around the block, and pwn hiim from every angle. He will show signs of anger at times, but he always reverts back to being the big gentle giant. IT's too late into his career to hope for him, or to pretend for him to ever be a dominant or powerful player.

I ....ing hate to HAVE to admit it, but this tall p.... will do more BAD for us in the playoffs than anything. Ya, he'll score 20 and grab 10, but when we NEED them, he'll crumble into his make-up bag and sob his eyes out wondering why all these americans are picking on him. I so hope i'm wrong though, these are just my humble, open-eyed feelings.

Yes, Yao is soft, but trade him for Eddie Curry, Elton Brand, Emeka OKafor, Bynum, possibly Camby? are you lose your mind or too naive?

consolas · Feb 19, 2008

Awesome reply, pearlon. I laughed my ass off reading this one...

MeatandPotatoes is a big, soft, above average type of meal.

Meals like this are becoming extinct for a good reason. It is not delicious, and it's too much of a hassel to cook. Don't get me wrong, it is an above average meal, but the only reason it gets so much hoopla is for its flavor and heartiness. PERIOD.

The potatoes are soft. They have times when they get angry and throw down a chunkiness or powers its way inside people's belleys, but 90% of the time, they are just soft and cannot get into people's mouths. They are talented at burning people's mouths and has a great texture.

blah blah...

Honestly, i'd trade MeatandPotatoes for pizza, hamburgers, whale blubber, ice cream, Playstation 3, vagisil, possibly spinach.

blah blah

MeatandPotatoes, you make some good points for a second grader... Keep up the good work on learning how to read and write!

It's so lucky for us to have an above average center who gets 20+ pts, 10+ rbs, 2+ blks and 2+ assts.
It's so lucky for us to have a soft center who always draws double team on the offensive end, but we don't have to double team the opponents' center even it is D. Howard.
Thank god for sending us Yao, even he is soft and only above average.

rocketman1979 · Feb 19, 2008

by your standards after tonight Keving Garnett should be traded.
