I remember all the experts saying Orlando desperately needs to draft Emeka Okafar
Weren't all the experts saying that it was up in the air as to who to pick?
Young, raw talent with potential upside to be great
vs.
Consistently good post defender with little upside
Last time I checked, Yao was soft, out of shape causing him to commit stupid fouls and be out of position late in games, often not the leading rebounder in a game, and gets pushed around by most opposing centers. He's good at shooting jumpers.Originally Posted by Kiddin Like Jason
Last time I check, Yao owned Howard. He's good at dunking hard and staying in the paint for rebound.

Is it just me or is that when a player does not employ the same style as the prototypical 90's NBA center they are immediately classified as soft. Yao's lack of athleticism doesn't make him soft. The fact the he prefers a finesse game as opposed to power does not mean he gets pushed around and is it just me or was Yao more successful playing in Van Gundy's system where a strong low post oriented player thrives then he is in Adleman system? The only reason Yao doesn't score as many points as Ewing is because he never got to be the man playing beside to volume shooters like T-Mac and Steve Francis not to mention the fact that Ewing played in the 80's and 90's which is far better for the slower low post center.
Also the Ewing comparison is far better suited to Yao than to Dwight Howard. Ewing's game is more similar to Yao but I guess that would make him "soft".

and he's still soft... so what did you prove?
He's a monster...it's his destiny to be a Garnett/Stoudamire type player
Doesn't make much sense considering he's already better than Amare.
