    Yao had extended minutes because Carl Landry was out tonight.

    Yao played 39 minutes, which is more than average, and we weren't exactly playing half-court style for a good portion of the game. Makes sense that a big guy like him gets tired towards the end.

    Yeah, I did. If you ever watch the game live you will see like on TV how Yao gets abuse and the refs allow it and if Yao does something to retaliate he gets call for the foul. Open your eyes.

    RA: That is why I did the trade for!


    Brooks making a statement since day 1 after the trade. Lowry will definitely be good. We traded Rafer for a backup because we already had a starter in our team. Oh yeah, and Rafer with his usually 1-9 from the field today.

    How sweet it is. :) I'm not too excited,but beating the Mavs always makes me happy. Props to the team. AB put it away out of their reach.

    Just ignore the haters, unless he put up 30, 15, 5 with a win, its a bad game for Yao.

    1/2 FG. 1 to, 1 offensive foul, 1 rebs and 1 bs. It is Ok. He carried us for 3 qts and we didn't need him in the fourth that much. He trusted his team mate to step up and they did.

    Looked a little bit out of control, but I couldnt be happier about AB's debut as a starter. He is only going to get better too.

    Aaron is just clutch in the final moments. Rest of the game he was mediocre.

    DO NOT complain about turnovers, obviously it's going to take time ofr lowry to get situated and with brooks playing more this means more fast paced basketball which leads to more turnovers. Today they had some silly ones, but still, expect a few more every game, the key is brooks doesn't break under pressure.

    Motherfahking this. Scola was money. Hit shots, pulled down boards -> great game.

    What the hell was up with Barea looking like freaking Iverson out there?

    Who ever said Yao choked is out of there minds, Did you even look at the stats he put up throughout the game? He made some turnovers in the 4th quarter, who doesn't?

    Are you guys saying guys like Pierce, Kobe, LeBron NEVER MAKE TURNOVERS IN THE 4TH?

    Yao wasn't able to score because he wasn't asked to in the end, He was clutch on defense and rebounding if you guys stopped hating on him you guys would understand.
