SI Ranks Yao 9th & Tmac 19th <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">[imgl]http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006_images/nba.rankings/yao.ming.jpg[/imgl] Yao Ming - 9th Despite missing 25 games last season due to injury, Yao firmly established himself as the NBA's best pivotman. Though the Rockets continually found inspired ways of keeping the ball from him, he still averaged 22.3 points and 10.2 rebounds in just 34 minutes a game. </div> <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">[imgl]http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006_images/nba.rankings/tracy.mcgrady.jpg[/imgl] Tracy Mcgrady - 19th The eyes of the league are squarely focused on this 10-year veteran, who has yet to win a playoff series and has been battling back issues for the last five years. T-Mac, who missed 35 games last year, averaged 24.4 points but shot a career-low (40.6 percent) from the floor. </div> What do you guys think? I think Tmac should be moved up couple of spots (if he proves to us that his injury isn't affecting him and he's back 100%), and Yao moved down couple of spots. -Thanks for the help Swish.
Yeah I don't know if I consider Yao a top 10 player YET, but Tmac should be bumped up over a lot of those guys (at least when he's healthy)
If they are solely based on last season, then I would leave Yao where he is and move T-Mac down 3-4 spots.
