Who you "watch" better?

Well 3 "watch" threads on these 3 big men. Nothing to do with game, just who do you prefer to "watch" develop more?

I prefer 'watching' Darko cuz people seem to be down on him more and I actually think he is a decent big guy.

edit: Maybe its a tie between him and Yao. Since I'm not Aussie I dont care much for Bogut. :)

Darko.

Bogut is a fat bushpig whos going to get benched soon.

Dont need to watch Yao as he is already good.

Bogut has a thread because there are a lot of the Aussies @nlsc
Darko has a thread more or less of because of notoriety
Yao has a thread because he's tall.

I follow the Yao thread the most from these 3 because he's actually resembling an all star caliber player. those other threads are full of "not bad- 10pts, 8 boards, and a nice pass/block" or "yahoo's gamechannel said he got 10 minutes in garbage time blah blah"

Darko is an intriguing (spl chk yo) situation. So i'd vote for him.

Bogut obviously has a soft spot with me too, as he representin' from aussie land yo and u betah recognise.

Bogut, not out of disrespect for the other two but simply because he's Australian so I'd like to see him do well. If that happens, basketball might actually get more respect in Australia...

...nah, that's not going to happen. :(

One of the reasons the NBL continues to falter, of course. No exposure. It needs to be a lot more popular before people will shell out money for Foxtel/Austar so they can see a couple of games a week.

Darko. Since I'm secretly rooting for the Magic now that they have Trevor Ariza, DeShawn Stevenson and a healthy Jameer Nelson. I'm pretty suprised how well he can block shots, and if he can get some more minutes then he's bound to be one of the top shotblockers in the league.

Yao doesn't need to be watched anymore. He has an entire country doing that.

Whoa, Darko has a bigger fanbase than Bogut and Yao (Y). Darkoheads. We should all get his haircuts.

Edit: On second note, perhaps that's not such a great idea.

because he's Australian

Actually, "historicly" speaking, he's not :) . Just a statemant. Now back on topic, I watch Darko thread better. To be honset, I don't find worth it to spend 10+ mins, on loading Bogut/Yao threads, each.

Andrew Bogut was born in Australia. Hence making him Australian. His parents are from Croatia.

He was born in Australia, raised in Australia by parents who are Australian citizens, plays basketball for Australia and has "Australian" on his birth certificate. So "historically" you can suck my Australian dick :) just a statement.
