    Battier passes on the open 3 to force Lowry into a crappy shot with the clock running down. Woot.

    Why the hell didn't Battier take that shot? The defender was at least 5 feet away.

    Which is fine. That's why the other man at the elbow is there. He either ducks in or out to set an off-the-ball screen (for Yao or a perimeter player) or receives the ball to overload the lane. Yao doesn't have to be the recipient.

    Teams are going to be licking their chops come playoff time at the simplest "strategy" of shutting down Yao with mediocre defenders, simply by fronting.

    The Rockets still play with zero composure when this happens.

    Have to miss T-Mac, the only guy who can get Yao the ball at any time.

    It's like Groundhog Day with the fronting- even Clyde knows what you gotta do...

    Battier is afraid to shoot. We can not have players afraid like chickens on the field.
