because they arent 6'11", 265.

not saying that dwight howard has no skills at all, but 90% of his efficiency is due to his body and athletisicm.

so what?
is it his fault hes a beast with insane hopping ability and athletism?

hes more efficient(all nba 1st team last 2 years), way better rebounder on both sides (lead league last two years), waaaay more efficient scorer, waay better defender (DPOY) and stays healthy END OF STORY .
no "ifs" or "buts" about if yao was healthy because he isnt so no one cares .
once again there is NO argument here .

oh I dont say that hes not the best center in the league, my post just referred to the comment by onez88888.

If he'd play against the top bigs of the 90's, he'd get picked apart tho, similiar to a young shaq gettin destroyed by hakeem in the 95 finals.

ohhhhh, i was going to say . mybad .

but of course .
hes so young hes still got so much more to learn.
when he gets a solid post game and keeps improving like he is, he has a chance to be one of the greatest .

Oh god, I think the OP is that YaoTmac loser guy, however to answer the question Dwight is much more dominant and more importantly aggressive, if he could shoot above 70% from the ft line its scary to think aht numbers he could consistently get.

This and look at this year's NBA finals. He finally got defended well and he couldn't do anything about it, because he has very little skills.

Yao Ming at the moment, simply based on his skill set. Dwight relies too much on his freakish athleticism and insane size. In a year or two, as Dwight develops his skills and his footwork even more, Dwight will be unstoppable. Case in point, in the playoffs, Dwight got the middle lane taken away from him over and over again.
