    Is it a bad time to mention that Rudy Gay in the San Antonia game so far has....

    20 points, 9 rebounds, 2 blocks, 1 steal ??

    i'm not a YOF, but i'd say that yao is the ONLY player that consistantly plays hard.

    Hey, there is a much better Suns vs Mavs game on ESPN if you are looking for an alternative.

    You'd rather have his 1-10 shooting self on the court? He had no lift on his jumpers, no explosiveness, was off with his jumpers....he simply wasn't helping the team by being on the court.

    Trade yao for an aging shaq!

    then trade tmac and battier for KOBE!

    Let the kobe/shaq combo have one more shot at the ship! I bet we'd get further with those 2 than our current line up!

    Did you not see the look on Howard when he took two hands to wipe him to the ground? there are alot of intangibles in this game -such as who is the supposed best C in the league, now and in the future. the guy just threw him down like he was some scrub and all Yao did was go after the Ref. If I was howard all I would be thinking is this guy is too scared to confront me. I could basically do anything to him like taking the best C in the league from him and he would not put up a fight.

    Decking him might not be best but atleast stare down Howard and make the impression that you are not going to get b**** slapped without payback in the future.

    Let's see. 1/4 of the season gone and we've made no progress in learning the Adelman system. T-Mac is probably hurt. No one can hit open shots.

    Oh yeah, we are going to be lottery bound.....

    of course, we would've had sefolosha if the rockets didn't trade the pick.

    bad trade, yes. worse scouting, definitely.

    Why does everyone just stand around on offense. We got rid of JVG for THIS?

    Howard shows Yao the difference between a man and a boy. That was a DUNK!

    We truly lost our momentum when damn Tcrap shows up and when our lead is gone he dissappears. Pussymac.
