Rudy: I want Yao to get 20-30 touches per game

Rudy said after the Celts game that he wants Yao to get 20-30 touches each game. How many of you basketball experts will say Yao would get out of 20-30 touches a game? 9-12?

From what I've seen, I like the amount of touches he's getting now. Seem like he's on pace for 24, give or take.

He was huffing and puffing there for a second.

Yao has gotten plenty of touches tonight. We went to him too much in the 3rd quarter, cause the Knicks figured out how to stop him.

What are you talking about? Yao made most of his limited shots in that quarter. Mobley, despite shooting hot early, went 1-7 in that quarter. So I guess Knicks figured out how to stop Mobley, not Yao. Knicks only figured out how to stop Yao towards the end of the game by forcing him to turnover the ball a couple of times.

-G'day-

quarter* your bad.

MAN. They didn't have no answer for Cato!!!!!!!!!!

Well we lost.

Anyways, it will be good for Yao to get 20-30 touches, but hopefully he does not get all tired and hopefully he draws some fouls. Hopefully the refs call some fouls sometime soon. MAN. And hopefully Mobley can play like he did in the 1st half forever....but take less shots and go under the radar. And just do good.

And hopefully Francis's back heals. No rest..............
