Well, I just read the news from a chinese sport website. (sports.qq.com) They said TMac was blaming Yao had more shooting attempts than he did in past two games (Hornets and Bucks). Indeed, Yao had 44 attempts in total, only hit 16 of them. He was also saying Yao killed his jumper chances and not tried to attack the rim. After the game against Bucks, he took his private jet directly to LA, not with his teamate and that was abit unusual action from TMac as the reporter noticed. Then in the latest game vs Clippers, TMac tried not to pass the ball to Yao and finished it by himself. Pretty obviously, Tmac's 30 attempts much more than Yao with 14. Well, I dont know if this reporter was joking around, and of coz I hope he was totally insane, but what if its for real, are we going to see another sample of Kobe & Shaq?
you should post the source, not that it matters since everyones going to say its not credible. I'm sure the local papers would pickup this up well before some obscure Chinese sports website. Seems like the Chinese website just making shyt up from t macs displeasure with the teams recent play.
IF this is true, yao will just back off and let Tmac rant. (unlike shaq) Then once they start dominating again, everything will be fine.
This cant be true.. remember Tmac said at the beggining of the year that he wanted to defer to Yao and Tmac wanted to be the passer to yao... i dont think that he was mad at that
Man.... I am not sure if I can just paste the link of this source here?! http://sports.qq.com/a/20070330/000034.htm If you understand the Chinese, go for it... I did not lie, this guy was totally insane to say our ''Duo'' tending to split.
If someone is going to write a fake story, or post a story without looking into it, atleast make it realistic. Tmac doesn't have a history of a mean streak, Yao has NO HISTORY of a mean streak. Niether of them have ever gotten into fights with major players on the team. Hell, have they even combined for 1 technical this season? You are talking about two of the nicest superstars in the league. I just don't see this being true. I don't see JVG putting up with it either. This story has 0 chance of being true.
it's all lies created by the mavericks and cuban. they are trying to dismantle us. we will crush them for their actions..
despite the credibility of that article. there are several facts for sure: 1. Yao played horrible in those two games and took more shots than Tmac. 2. Tmac looked passive and displeasant in those two games. 3. Tmac refused post game interview which indicates his bad mood, and took off to LA sarparately. 4. Clipper game Tmac took way too many ill advised shots and a whole lot more than Yao despite Yao was playing good in that particular game. which is ridiculous. of course the article was bullspit cuz Tmac wont be stupid enough to publicly criticize Yao. but maybe Tmac does have an attitude about Yao.. who knows, just u put those facts together, maybe he does. hopefully not
I was looking on the NBA page of that site and I wasn't finding it. Can you give a specific link please? I want to see what it says.
