    Pretty good game, of course we need Yao more but with Tracy playin' like that we can be really good.

    I also think our bench has to step up.

    Hope Tracy's knee is really ok. He has a whole break to rest it. Damn he's 9-12 :eek:

    Refs are horrible... what about the earlier call on Bonzi.

    In the replay... I didn't see anything...

    Damn refs..

    Yao still gets neutralized when he faces fronting defense.

    Balance will always be an issue with him.

    My favorite line by the announcers "I'm beginning to learn some Spanish and uno is a good place to start." OMG!

    Did you see Rafer Alston defense at the end before the Half??? Pathetic man!! He left his man wide open or unnecessary help. And when his man missed the shot...he pumped his fist. This is sooo stupid!! Tmac or coaches ought to talk to him about his dumb defense...it's the same shyt during the Jazz Playoffs series where he left Utah's guards dominate during the Playoffs series.

    Rockets are giving up 50% shooting to the Grizz in the first half. If they tighten up the D, they should win this thing going away.

    Gay looks like an athletic freak, but foul prone.

    Why can't Tmac and Yao have a great game at the same time for the whole game just once

    That third foul on Yao was total BS. One of his worst halves of the year.

    He has been playing lethargic defense, which is inexcusable. He's being doubled off the ball, basically they're willing to let the perimeter guys shoot. We've been hitting the shots at an OK rate. Let's see if the Grizzlies continue the way they guard Yao.

    i think it's ok to be physical as long as u establish the position first. milicic has established his post position on defense first.

    that's why yao has to come down and establish his position right away.

    Yao's rebounding number usually shows his energy level.
