    You still don't get it do you? Yes, it is his fault...b/c he just can't seal off his defender. It's not that he won't, he CAN'T. Get that through your head. It has nothing to do with his being a p***y...he just can't seal off someone who fronts him.

    There are only a few ways to do that.
    1. You either have to be so bulky and strong that when you seal of your man, your teammate can get you the ball before the defender can run around you and get back in front.
    2. You have to be so quick that you can react to what the defender is giving you.
    3. You have to have great lob passers that can throw a pass to you OVER and AROUND the defender as you roll toward the basket.

    Yao doesn't have any of those three things going for him. It's ******* physics...maybe you should take that course before you graduate son.

    Every other post I've read of yours has been about Yao "refusing" to deal with fronting defenses. He's not refusing to deal with them. He's not intimidated by them. He's simply nullified by them. There's a difference.

    I loved Clyde as a player, but he may have just made one of the dumbest statements in NBA history...." Jeff Van Gundy is looking for someone to lead this team, and Moochie may not be a bad choice." I know you didn't mean it, Clyde. But why did you say it.

    Just before Clyde said that, he and Bill were talking about how the Rockets need to get Rafer back. WHY? He looked like crap before he got injured. This is a team with NO chemistry, NO energy, NO rhythm, NO flow, NO motion. Nothing is really working. And when TMac struggles, lights out. Without major adjustments, we are witnessing a lottery team with two All-Stars.

    I think the injury affects him too much!! It really takes time to recover. Today our guards suck, see the three point percentage of two teams you will know why rockets lose this game. I see a trade is coming soon!!!


    QUOTE=StevieFlight3]i'm so pissed at t-mac right now, to me he just seems like he doesn't care, keeps passing off, just ****ing take to the basket, i'm sure we all know he can get there at will, and he'll atleast get to the line!!!![/QUOTE]

    Not if the defense rotates like they're supposed to. Head unfortunately is the biggest culprit in rotating late (but after all, he is a rookie). But, Derek Anderson has no clue what the word "rotate" means... and then there's Swift (who thinks we signed him for the one monster dunk a game).

    Yes he has an inability...fine. But it's just frustrating that you don't see Yao trying to throw WRIGHT behind him. Who cares if Yao gets physical and gets called for fouls? It would atleast send a message to the refs.

    And the last time I checked, your "3 points" that you made has absolutely no relevance to Physics. But yeah....ok. DANG"oL!!!

    I do not care who got frustrated. You can not blame a guy with 29pts and 5 off rebound. Today it is our guards suck. Find the right target, Guys!!

    I dont see the majority of the Members here atacking him. i dont agree with his assesment tonight(because yao finally tried tonight), but i see him getting infuriated and baited by some YOF's here who call him names.BTW, before you say another word, from what he told me before, he is apprantly chineese.

    What does being Chinese have anything to do with it? Just because he's Chinese it's okay to bash Yao for everything that goes wrong in his life? :rolleyes:

    Our guards are too slow, can not rotate well. JVG should find a solution, otherwise, we can not win many games.

    He was defending Yao, saying that most of his points weren't in garbage time. :p
