    In the Yahoo promo for tonight's game Adelman says he won't tell what his strategy is for the "fronting problem" because he doesn't really know. Wow. What a boatload of encouragement.

    I don't want Artest to stop shooting the 3 ball within the offense, I just want him to start MAKING THAT SHOT !!

    Game 2 Scola had really bad shootin night. If he could make some shots, we would win.

    The "fronting problem" is solved by other players scoring in the paint and forcing portland to stop. They are willing to lose to us by our other players scoring. If that is what they want let's give it to them. I could care less if Yao has under 10 shots. He better grab boards on defense. If they take you away on offense, at least get 12 boards. We also have to play defense. If we get two stops last game we win.

    Wishful thinking, but if Yao's going to get called for a foul, he better make it count.

    He needs to do his best Deke impression and throw them 'bows.

    The strategy is kicking them once they front. you can grab and hold someone's arm but you can't kick?

    You got to be kidding me !!! :mad:

    Is this guy a coach or what ???

    This is getting ridiculous, I mean that the players do not execute well and players like AB are scared to throw it over the top or whatever I get. This however is just incompetence, especially at NBA level. Adelman has so much experience, 1.5 years of working with Yao, how can he not have a plan ?

    This is like saying: "we're not ready for tonight's game, we are just hoping for the best"

    This does not sound good, especially with Deke out. Like the guys said on No Layups, Deke was very crucial in Game 1 because Roy couldn't attack the basket and he rebounded like crazy. Deke owned the paint and Yao did a good job too. It's time to own the paint again !!!!

    That is why he needs to be fired or Yao Ming shouldn't be resigned in 2010. I say the hell with RA, he hasn't figured it out in 2 seasons. Also leave Von in the game he will probably make something out of nothing since 20 secs will be wasted on trying to give Yao the ball

    Literally, it says "I am the one buying soy sauce". The implied meaning is "I am a bystander".

    Nicely done.
