Too bad Yao takes a **** on Dwight's face in the head to head matchups. But then again, Yao is injured huh? Too bad we are talking about a healthy Yao, too bad everybody wants to deny how good he is when he is a healthy player.

Too bad you're overlooking the fact that the biggest thing in Yao Ming's career isn't his dominance or his skill, but the fact that he's so injury prone. The fact that he's always going down when it's crucial that he stays healthy. The fact that in the last 4 seasons, 3 of them he's managed to play in less than 70% of the regular season games and has been as low as 58%. His foot is still broken, and he is still listed as indefinite.

We get it - you love Yao Ming. But when you can't make it through a season healthy, when you go down in the playoffs in the most crucial, important series of your career... well, it's hard to call you the best.

If potential is your thing, cool. I'll take the guy who gives a performance all game long over the guy who plays stellar off the bench for 10 minutes a game.

Grant Hill isn't a top 10 player of all time because of his potential when healthy.

I don't even rate Yao as a player. He has no talent, it's just he's a big mo fucca. Dwight Howard>>>>>

Please, find me another player in NBA history who's taller than 7 and got better shot and coordination than Yao (possibly only Dirk).
Dwight got everything to become one of the greatest centers. He's really strong, he got great hops and his stamina is good. But he can't shoot and he's learning slower than Yao. On almost every game he got foul trouble.

That sounds more like Dwight Howard to me. He's the one with 0 skills, except jumping very high.

[enigm@]

certainly not Dwight Howard

Dwight Howard. His performance was awesome (over-all)
