It's totally childish to view everything in terms of T-Mac/Yao and Yao/T-Mac. Yao doesn't enter into the equation. It doesn't matter what Yao...
If you seriously think that the Rockets had the arsenal to beat Utah without Yao you're delusional. If you actually read the sports pages you...
Because Pierce is not McGrady. Obviously different people respond to pressure differently. That's what separates losers from winners. You can't...
He also vanished in the fourth quarters of a couple of games. And in the first two games in Houston he went 7 of 21 and 9 of 22. Maybe if he had...
At least you know Pierce, KG and Allen have what it takes to win. Is there any guarantee that Yao and T-Mac (or Gasol or Nowitzki) have the same...
There's talent and there's character. Michael Wilbon said that the most impressive thing about Pierce was how he stepped up over and over again...
I don't blame T-Mac at all. But you're talking about comparing somebody who served in the Army and retired in peacetime and never fired a shot in...
There is no substitute for actually getting it done. None. You can discuss all the hypotheticals you want to but that's just words and not...
T-Mac talked the talk ("It's on me") but he hasn't walked the walk. It's as simple as that.
Pierce is the Finals MVP. T-Mac's never been out of the first round. That's why you can't compare the two.
Actually Yao is pretty good at defending the paint. All he has to do is stand still and hold his arms up. His shot blocking numbers aren't...
And again, you're avoiding the issue. The more games a guy plays the better the chance that he'll have a bad game. Compounding that is that the...
Howard excels at the things associated with traditional centers--rebounding, defense, etc. Yao's a new type of animal. He's a bigger...
The point is that I'm extremely skeptical of the argument that Yao is untradeable because of merchandise sales in China or whatever. Yao's...
Yes, the Rockets were outgunned. But any team that suddenly loses $15 million worth of payroll off their roster is going to have serious...
The point is that you can't trade a center for a center. You can't trade a PF for a PF. If the Rockets wanted Howard they'd have to package...
So I, Wekko, Antisonic and Rofflesaurus are all Asian? I hate to break this to you, but Roffle is an equal opportunity hater. If you check his...
Because elite centers are harder to find than elite guards, and play a more important role on the team. And again, if you actually count the...
It's not attacking him if the criticism is valid. Just about everyone on this board except for his fan club agrees that he doesn't take it to the...
D. Howard is the only other elite center in the league right now, so if you buy the argument that dominant big men are critical then he's...
