When healthy, Is Yao better than Dwight Howard?

You guys are the experts since you are the Rocket fans and I believe yes, Yao is the better player than Dwight Howard when he's at full health and I want to know your thoughts on this. This is hypothetical since Yao is probably not going to stay healthy.

Whatever your agenda is, it doesn't fare well on this board.

Consider this message as a warning.

Who would you rather have if they were both healthy though? And who is the overall player when healthy?

Mods, can we get a lock on this thread? He's been trolling the PC board on this topic and I'd rather not have the relatively safe haven of the Rockets board tainted by this.

No, but answer the question.

No, but answer the question.


1. You're not a mod.
2. Yes, you are--you insist that people answer this entirely subjective ranking (even barging into other forums like this one and threads like the POY project), and if they don't give you the answer you want, you mock them for their adherence to things like stats, awards/recognition, playoff success, etc. You refuse to acknowledge the possibility that you're wrong. Smells like a troll to me.
3. I decline to answer. If I disagree, you'll :lol: at me for using whatever means I use to disagree with; if I agree, you'll likely run back to the PC board with the report that Rockets fans--brace yourself, everyone--prefer the player on their own team.

Long story short, you're not worth the effort, and I'm kind of annoyed with myself for devoting two minutes of my time to respond. Begone.

He's also the same guy that said:

WorthyBlitz42 wrote:Aldridge, he isn't pathetic at defense and rebounding like Horford is, though he can be at times. Both of these guys are one-dimensional big men, basically useless if they aren't making their shots. I still would rather have Aldridge, Horford just looks pathetic on the defensive end.


So..... yeah, take that for what it's worth.

yao > dwight only when healthy of corse. yao has above average defense by default. his offense is near perfect, only thing stopping him from perfection is beating the front. dwight's defense is 10/10 but offense is like 6/10. yao isnt a whole lot better, but he is significantly better...imo

Do i need to remind you we are taking health out of the equation, jesus. Either that or you are a racist and you are one of those yao haters and pretends to love them only to make the other player look better.

Wow, took you at least seven pages on the PC board to play the race card. Had to bring it out early, eh?
