Yes, you are right, it's more likely one against three. In the past, Francis could handle dribbling through one against three if they come one...
I am not sure whether Yao's problem was biological rather than habitual. My relative has a similar problem in sports. He is very explosvie and...
If you are interested to know how Francis got the six assist in the Detroit game, let's recollect how they happened. First of all, the box score...
Hard to predict Rocket game these days. At least, the defence will be there. And every time I predicted they won, they came out short. This game,...
You are absolutely right. Yao has been ranked by NBA by far the second best centre. Only Shaq was ahead, not by much this year, of him. So,...
I don't see anybody blaming Steve for the loss to Detroit. What many posters here feel Francis took the leadership in losing the game going...
There is a lot of truth stated here. Mind you I don't agree Yao has no inside game. He may not dominate inside but he does have a higher...
A lot of good points in this thread and responses. :)
Good call. I do think that is achievable unless something drastic (such as major injury or a fight among the coach/players) really happens. :)
My friend, you are probably comparing apple to orange here. Almost everybody knows GP and Francis represent two different styles of PG. GP is a...
That's probably true. Looking at the other two guards - Iverson and Marbury - who have a style closer to Francis, I am shocked to see how much...
Maybe all this national attention on Yao's softness will motivate the refs to allow him to become a more aggressive player. :D :D :D
In essence, we won the game last in the first eight minutes when we had the 21-0 run. At one point, we led by 23-2. Most of our assists occurred...
To me, JVG was not the right choice, but the best choice available and defintely not the wrong choice at least for now. As long as we are in...
These +/- does not reflect the real situation either because Yao and Francis (probably mainly Yao) do not play much against the bench and garbage...
Mutombo could not defend Yao at all because he shot from mid-range. So NY had to go small. Then Yao went inside, attracting double team all the...
Na, I got to protect my front first! :D
That sounds a great idea if we can still make the playoff. We shall have a fresh team during the playoff. Hopefully, Yao does not need to play...
Ah, that guy. I thought he was in the hall of fame. If not, must be on the injury list soon after the Laker - Rocket game. Just kidding. Yao...
Yes, I noticed that too. The offensive schemes tonight allows for a little bit more flexibility to the players. Francis did a few nice cross-over;...
