    man even SHAQ is improving on his FT this year. I heard few days ago he was 12/12 in a row. I know rafer can improve his shooting. All he need to do is jackup 1000 shots on every practice. geeeezzzzz!

    wafer played well actually, his shots were not falling today, but most were good open shots.

    I am sure Wilt wasn't doubled or tripled.

    Wafer is fine. They really D up on him scond half. They even double team him at time. He'll be fine. Just continued being so freaking aggressive. I love this kid!

    After the first half he had, the Heat made it their intention to shut him down and for the most part they did. Rafer got all the open looks and, shockingly, he made them. I like Wafer's athleticism, attitude, and aggressiveness. Not sure what to make of him yet: future star, solid role player, or flash in the pan? Time will tell.

    Man Wafer...resign this guy right now please. If he's producing like this up until Playoff time sign this guy... You know you're a good player when you score 17 and THATS a bad night.

    Next game will be tough, excited about the win but i'm ready for monday at 1pm.

    Thank you. I might add another dimmer-witted post here:
    We don't need MeMac.

    So a guy avg 50-25 in a season wasn't doubled? How did he lead the league in assist 1 year?

    Good win against a teams they shouldve beat down. Yao was really good, rafer made shots surprisingly, wafer attacked the rim, in the 4th landry came up big. Shane sucked again as well as Brooks on his shot and scola was solid. Good win altogether.

    I like the attitude because I think we have a good team too, but don't you think we are better with Tmac as another weapon?

    I don't know if they were then, but double teams were illegal at one point.

    Whaaa? he only had one shot and made it, and 6 rebounds, 6 assists, a block shot to go with that. He guarded D Wade who shot 11-25. Just cause he didn't light up the scoreboard doesn't mean he played a bad game.

    Amazingly, not so much. I have little evidence to back this up other than that which I've read throughout the years, but apparently double-teaming individual players was initially seen as bad sportsmanship rather than sound defensive philosophy.

    Unless he changed into a totally new mentality or he comes from the bench.
