    that's why you don't post up yao or any big man when you have the last shot. you can't time it right. all detroit had to do was front right when the clock got down to blow up the play.

    and for some reason, on last plays artest likes to dribble until he's sure the defense can almost block the shot. we should've just run the play through brooks since he can beat his man.

    we have the worst after timeout plays/execution i've ever seen. we're better off not calling a timeout at all.

    The play developed to early.....there was no need for a person in the corner to crowd that side of the court.....bad coaching.

    AB can't pass to Yao, his indecision is real hurting. Adelman, get the basics straight.

    this is so sad, lowry should have been in the game instead of brooks and wafer instead of artest.

    obviously artest wouldn't pass the ball and brooks hates yao, seriously

    Ron got the ball with 3 sec on the clock and still at half court ...while everybody else was scrambled......i guess he shoulda passed? ? ?


    it was AB who screwed it up..he had like 5 secs of Yao in good position but decided to wait it out until mcD fronted Yao....

    Brooks suck at passing ...he has no confidence...the reason is he's afraid of turning it over...

    good god seriously...why do you crowd that side if your trying to free up an open entry pass to yao?!?!?!? you might as well put your whole damn team over there so all 5 defenders are around yao

    If we lose this game....

    ADELMAN, WHY was Brooks running the offense at the end of OT1?

    Everyone but YAO (especially Battier), WHY was your spacing horrible on that play? Yao had good position originally, but Battier, YOUR man was cheating over on Yao...GET OUTTA THERE!

    and finally...
    AB: MAKE THE INLET PASS FAST! WHY DRIBBLE ON AND ON?
    Jesus...its like Steve Francis dejavu!
