    It's not that Ron couldn't take the shot, but what shot it was. A fadeaway jumper with 10 seconds left on the clock? NO. A post up or a drive? YES.

    yeah, artest wasn't really freelancing, it looked like we ran the play for artest, which is what made it weird. yao wasn't even posting.


    and we give up a layup. i'm sure we'll have a fantastic artest 22 footer to go into double OT. lets just pray we don't somehow let the pistons win in OT dwyane wade style.

    It is HIGHLY unlikely that Artest will take this last shot.

    Hasn't been a great game. For the life of me I will never understand why Rick Adelman refuses to use Deke.

    Deke was perfect for the last situation.

    Oh well. :eek:

    Why ****ing take Yao out **** stupid coach. You know they're going to penetrate but with Yao inside, they can't penetrate and do shyt inside...so why take him out?? I said this same shyt every time over and over again ...Rick Adelman just don't get it.

    Didn't you notice Yao blocked one of their shots before??? How stupid can you get a coach...keep doing this stupid substitution every time.
