    refs called a great first quarter, but made some questionable calls on both ends in the second.

    like once they made a bad call they started calling make up calls and they haven't gotten back on track.

    Man, it is not about Yao taking a charge. Blazers' guards just dribble the ball and hit Yao on purpose. Shall Yao move away and avoid it?

    I know some of you guys aren't liking Wafer's play, but I think most of his aggressive moves have been good. Obviously the last few plays weren't and that rushed jumper was really bad, but otherwise he's playing okay.

    Wafer, if you are mad, take it inside, stop shooting from 18 ft away.

    Von wafer needs to know his freakin roll. I mean he crowded the space so Yao couldn't get the ball when he had position.Yao had to wave his butt out to clear the way so he could go to work and then the fool see's battier getting ready to check him out and he takes a illadvise jumpshot.

    portland is going to keep jumping into yao all game, Yao just can't win that battle, if he goes for the block he makes it easy for the blazer to jump into him, and he's not good at taking charges....the houston players have to help yao by doing the same themselves, jump into przybilla and oden, get THEM in foul trouble, this is going to make it easier for yao on on one because they won't be as aggressive on him....

    Yeh it was a make up call but it wasn't really even. The bad call cost 3 points they shouldn't have had and changes how Yao plays on D the rest of this qtr.
