    Yao pretty much missed all the summer-league and pre-season games in his first year. On the other hand, Bogut has benefited from NCAA, summer-league and pre-season games.

    LOL, look at the 76ers. Their offense is Webber and AI each shoot 30 times a game.

    13 and 9 for Bogut. Webber came to play, but sixers stunned.

    From the Sportscenter highlights, Bogut looked real strong.

    Culture shock, anyone? :rolleyes:

    Yao isn't the project that some of you thought he'd be. Be glad for that.

    It's a lot like people who are waiting for the next 0-16 team in football. Since Yao has been the only #1 pick not to score in his first game, some are waiting for the next #1 pick to go scoreless in his first game.

    I don't remember enough names in this forum to know whether DeAleck is a Yao basher or not, but not knowing helped me see why someone may start a thread like this. I certainly didn't take it to mean he thought Bogut is or would be a better player than Yao.

    Disregard all this if DeAleck is a consistent Yao basher, though.

    Me? Yao basher? :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    It's like saying Karl Rove a Bush basher...

    Stupid thread. Totally garbage.

    Yao will be a great player, while Bogut will be a good player.

    Bogut had a decent game. But not that great. TJ Ford had as many rebounds as him...heck, he only rebounded 1 other teammate on the starting five. And he missed a wide-open alley-oop dunk.

    That said, he clearly has some decent athleticism and should develop nicely.

    Yao is the only #1 bigman pick that averaged over 18 and 8 last year in limited minutes and is still considered to be underachieving.

    Hey, boy, grow over 200 posts first, then start bashing others.

    if u really want to look at it. experience wise this is yao's rookie year since he didn't have HS or college ball and ball in china was weak.
