    Can I hear a FU*K YEAH?!

    That pass was the most beautiful play I have ever seen from Yao.

    Its really important to manage Yao's fouls this game.

    Did Aaron miss a pass there to Yao off the fast break?

    Just curious. It worked out obviously, but can someone that understands basketball better explain if that was the right move?

    I love how Yao is moving now rather than just standing there being held trying to get his arms up.

    The refs can't ignore the holding if Yao moves around.

    Out of 40 defensive rebs, if yao had the stamina to run on 10 of those, he could pull a shaq and run down the middle and post up deep.

    I guess Yao means it when he says he can't just score 7 points.

    PS: How they call this game has tremendous impact on how teams play.

    that's more like it. yao is MUCH more active today wanting the ball by moving his body around rather than around the same place.

    Yao can't catch while moving...
    passing to artest was the right decision ;)

    I think it was a very smart play by Aaron..Roy was fronting him and a man was behind Yao, and by swinging to the corner, Roy was forced to go out and guard his man, which left Yao with position against the man behind him.

    i like the little wrinkle Rick placed in the offense when yao is on the lower block. the slashing ron ron and a pass back to yao for a dunk is nice to see.

    AB indeed missed Yao initially but do not worry

    http://nl.justin.tv/raptorsnation_hi for the guy who asked

    Did you see the steal by Yao :) he got credit for it too though Kevin Harlan said it was Battier

    Because if he did, Yao would not have been able to make that unbelievable pass.
