Or don't wait 5 seconds for the double team then pass it out to rafer so he can jack up a three, just turn and shoot over dirk or brandon bass.
And don't dribble around Harris. Who do you think you are? And please shoot the fXXking ball when you are really close to basket and only one guy is behind you. You can't pass the ball out and let the worse shooter shoot it instead of you.
yao's finesse game is really exemplified when tmac gave him the ball in the paint and no one is around him and he finger rolls it in (and it nearly went out). that's basically who yao is going to be. we just have to accept it and move on. he will never give hard fouls the way harris tried to take yao's head off (if that was me and harris was on me 1-on-1 at the end i foul him HARD). sure get a flagrant if they want. he HAS to send a message. but he is who he is. and PLEASE, tmac, DRIVE. you have played great this season and mixed it up w/ your drives. i counted 4 times u drove tonight looking to score.
SHOOT THE BALL~! You are wide open just a step from the FT line. shoot it like a FT! I know Rafer is wide open but he aint Josh Howard or Jason Terry! You cant count on him to make it every time
That was one of the softest foul I've ever seen with under a minute left by any NBA players... On top of everything, Devin Harris was the guy who pulled a flagrant foul on Yao... Sigh~
I don't like Tmac's play coming off the Yao screen, whenever Yao sets the screen at the 3 point line, Tmac chooses to go against two defenders himself. If you don't need a screen why call for it, or why is Yao always coming out not others? Anyway I am bummed now.
I admit I miss JVG, if he were the coach he would chew Yao to death for not shooting, well maybe not cause he loves RA.
I have said in the other post, in the last year playoff, Popovich ordered Horry to foul Nash hard when the Suns made a run and the end results .. SAS won. Adelman should have ordered someone to foul Harris hard but then I can't think of anyone in the team can do that except Steve. Everyone on the team is too nice.
Bottomline, we don't need a girly Yao on the court, I don't care if we lost a couple of regular games because of Yao being fouled out due to hard fouls. Message has to be sent. If I were Yao and were fouled by Harris like that, Harris' gonna say goodbye for the season the next time he drives. Fine is fine, arm will be broken.
A bleeding nose to Harris would be just about right like what Nash got last year .. broken arm is too cruel as we don't want ruin anyone career
