    especially when the team has a few days off. What makes him so exhausted?
    but when he is on the road trip, he plays much better even in b-t-b games.

    yao will have his bad games (the last 2 or the entire first month) but he will have more games where he's more than good to great (december for the most part).

    yao remains our most consistent player.

    Having a big 3 means that one can be off, but not all 3...tonight...all 3 were off....

    Groovy.

    Video games might be one of the reasons. hehe...
    what I'm trying to say is :"Is he trying to have a baby now"?

    These kinds of reactionary untrue threads must be eliminated.

    So every time, a player has a bad game, he "usually sucks"? You don't usually suck if you average nearly 20/10!

    Can these mental midgets be stopped from creating these kinds of threads?

    Yao and T-Mac are road warriors and play better on the road.

    However yes Yao does do worse at home than at the road. He rebounds less at home, shoots a lower FG% but he shoots more FT's and has a higher FT% at Home. Not to mention he is less turnover prone at home.

    He does care about winning but he doesn't have the physical ability to grab clutch rebs or last long enough to dominate in late 4th quaters. Maybe you shouldn't forget the 22million guy that doesn't care.

    :D I bet there's something underneath we need to uncover.

    BTW,I saw frustration on his face after he missed that jumpshot at the crucial moment.He didn't wanna lose this game,but he failed to rally Rockets into the overtime. :( Simple as that,he just had off night,it happens.Last time if my meomory serves me right,Yao sucked in Cleveland in spite of the biased officiating game,obviously.

    I've seen Yao play terribly at home. I've seen Yao play terribly on the road. I've seen him play terribly when well rested. I've seen him play terribly on the second night of a back to back. I've seen him play terribly in the first quarter. I've seen him play terribly down the stretch.

    I've also seen him play well in all those situations. What's the point?
