The Official NBA 2009 AllStar Weekend Thread

If Shaq is "The Big Cactus" then Yao would be "The Big Putz". Regardless of the pace Yao couldn't compete. What a loser with no creativity. Look at Shaq.. He ran and he did his thing and he weighs 45lbs more.. Screw Yao..

OMG OMG Yeah, trade his ass! Trade Yao for Shaq straight up!!!

his game is way too robot 4 it

You can probably say the same for Duncan and Nowitzki as well. IMO there's nothing wrong with being too robot. Performing at all-star games depends a lot on athleticism and/or personality. Yao has very poor athleticism, and his personality is rather conserved, much like almost all Chinese players, so I don't expect him to do well at All Star Games, but not because his game is too "robot".
