    I can understand Bad shooting nights- How can Professional NBA players with the Playoffs on the line miss lay ups.

    Yeah, and Hayes won't see one minute in the 2nd half unless it is a blow-out.

    durvasa, can you email me thru the bbs? I have a question for you.

    I wonder how many 'Trade Yao for KG' / 'Yao sucks/chokes/blah blah' threads we'll have tonight...

    Yao is getting hammered and no whistles. He's got robbed of a block, and was whistled instead. No justice. If I ever wanted to see Yao take his point to the opposition, this is it. Push someone, get in a ref's face, something. JVG get a technical...c'mon... :mad:

    The thing is, Howard's jumpers are almost exclusively wide open, and yet for the season he's only shooting 42% on them.

    There'll be more trade T-Mac for KG threads if we loose tonight or T-Mac for Blount with the way he's playing.

    Hopefully none, because hes playing pretty awesome for having a tough shooting game. If he was really hitting he could be going for a career high.

    When T-Mac played some great games and Yao was improving, they say "Trade Yao for KG".

    When T-Mac crippled with injury and Yao was dominating, they say "Trade Mac for KG".

    That's the definition of bandwagon fans.

    The role players shot 7-27 from the floor in the first half. We are lucky to be down only 2 so far.

    Stoudemaire is not a big factor. it's Nash who makes the difference. if there were no Nash on suns team, both Stoudemaire and Marion will suck, just like the old time

    I'd say the Wolves fans will cry for Trade KG for Yao after half time. KG's number really sucked.

    Thats probably because he is 33. He better not be our starting power forward when he is 34.

    KG didn't need to score that much when Blount was clicking. In addition I don't consider 7 points 8 rebounds at halftime "sucks".

    The key to the second half: When Yao gets a good shot, he has to make it. We won't get much better looks than that.

    Also, he needs to not pick up the 4th foul in the first 2 minutes.

    It's not like fans calling for trade after one game are rational. And comparing to Yao's 14 pts, 5 rebs at halftime, KG sucked and need to be traded for Yao.
