    I'm getting a little tired of people complaining about Yao when he takes a charge..even when it's called in our favor. If you have the guts to standin front of a moving guy and set your feet and take the hit, your doing your team a favor and it causes your team to get the ball back, rather than Yao possibly picking up a foul going for a block.

    it seems to me he only does it when he is not in position to go for the block. in other words, where jumping for the block would very likely draw a foul with little actual chance of a block. plus, that was a charge so he did the right thing and got the wrong call.

    Bench time for Von. He doesn't handle loud opposing crowds too well, it tends to send him into crazy mode.

    Rudy gets an AND 1 with a defacto offensive foul and then draws a charge on Wafer on the other end. Unbelievable.

    I think the refs are actually calling a pretty good game. In many other arenas Yao already has 3 fouls.
