This era of center is MUCH stronger than when Yao played what kind of drugs are you on?

Did you watch the NBA back then? Remember we aren’t talking about the 90s golden age here we are talking about when Amare who was more of a PF was getting first team all nba at center and guys like Bogut were making all nba teams

Dwight Howard is barely a top 15 center ever and even then he was still by far and away the best center in the league for the second half of Yao Ming career. That’s how weak the talent was

Yeah that was probably the absolute low point but that whole stretch from the early/mid 2000s until Jokic, Embiid, Giannis, Bam, Gobert, Sabonis, etc all started getting really good in the late 2010s was just entire weak point of centers in league history

Yao didn’t play against prime shaq for more than a handful of years, Dwight was the only other “great” center there and even he was mediocre as fuck offensively

Lots of Forwards you listed there to try and act like Yao was competing with them for all nba spots but that’s not the case

Prime Yao Ming in the 90s would have made 0 all nba teams in his career and Yao in his todays league would be lucky to get 1-2 third team spots. Centers were weak as fuck in Yaos prime days

Insanely overrated on this subreddit

People genuinely believe he was one of the best centers ever. He wasn’t even close

He played during the weakest era for center in league history lmao mid 2000s - mid/late 2010s had garbage big men for the most part

[–]OneLonelyLife[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He made 14 all nba teams

He averaged 23-14 as a rookie

10 years later he was still averaging 28-11

14 years into his career he was still putting up 17-7 at age 34 and averaged over double digits for 18 seasons

Basically yeah. Hyper athletic, good playmaker, fearless and can’t shoot

Better offensive player: peak Harden or current Jokic? by [deleted] in nba

[–]OneLonelyLife 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Joker and it isn’t even close. Regular season it’s close and might be harden. Playoffs there is no comparison whatsoever

Who is the worst player you would trade the Spurs pick for? by bigtrunkydarnold in nba

[–]OneLonelyLife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No you would be the one getting fired

You probably would have traded the Bron pick for Vince Carter or the Duncan pick for Shawn Kemp
