    If Yao wants to play, he better play harder and tougher and smarter.

    He's the only guy who can shoot straight tonight. We might need him to carry the scoring slack. He should get at least 20 shots before the night is over, win or lose.

    it really is amazing how predictable and plodding this offense is. rudy liked to iso but we never seemed to be this methodical and predictable even back then.

    and finally alston makes a 3. now just play some D and get it to 5 or 6 by the half.

    The board is too upset with Yao and TMac, a foul on Yao was ignored...imagine that

    Let the role players step up, since the 2 superstars are nothing but chump.

    Please keep Yao on the bench for the rest of the game, so that we may still have a chance to come back.

    it may be a good idea to bench YAO for a while. He is hurting this team, totally useless

    Neither can Chuck Hayes, that was proven earlier in this series. Our frontcourt sucks except for Mutombo, and JVG has him nailed to the bench.

    About ****ing time. I guess Yao is not playing up par and the smaller lineup is doing well Yao still will be needed in order to win this game. Battier has keep the team a float.

    I bet our +/- is negative with Yao on the court against the Jazz

    4-9 from the FT line is not helping much either.....

    Put Yao in for 5 good fouls! or start a fight!

    TMAC is assisting which is a good sign. I may need to turn on the tV?

    Olajuwon needs to walk over to Rocket's bench and slap Yao into the game.

    It's fool's gold that 3 by Alston. You watch, he will try to take 3 more and miss. Put it in the bank.

    They need to get it in the lane.

    JVG is doing the right thing right no benching Yao. He has lost confidence and is no use on the court right now. Let him rest and get mad sitting there and then maybe, just maybe, that will light a fire under him.

    It's sad to let the other team have a 17 point lead, shot 4 for 9 at the line.

    "They have done it with Yao on the bench" quote of the night!!!!

    Note: I am a hugh Yao fan.

    I still have faith.....The Rox have trailed at half of every game so far this series, right? With that said, I hope it's down to 6 or so by half.

    You know, in the beginning of the series, Okur did say Yao was predictable. Why didn't Yao adjust?

    I proposed letting Battier shoot it out. He's a good shooter on the inside also.

    Let him have the bulk of the shot since the superstars shoot like they dont want the damn dall!
