Milicic on Yao: "He told me his foot is bothering him"

Wrong. According to leebigez, it's a conspiracy of the Rockets organization to do the best for Yao, not the best for the team.

 

Yeah, I guess I have to believe what you think more than Adelman who has coached in the NBA for 18 years.

And I also have to believe what you think more than the team medical experts.

What are you trying to do now? Arguing for the sake of argument? You are getting more comical by hour.

 

Darko....a big, scary looking bunny comes to mind.

I can't help it

 

rockets4ever, If I'm deemed 100% even with the limited minutes and no soreness, why worry about a matchup? Go and watch the hornets game and tell me how many pick and rolls he was involved in. Thats what every team tries to do with yao, put him in space away from the rim.

Cx, i think yao is a good basketball player. I think he has a positive effect on the game, but you used dominant and thats beyond a stretch. If he gets the ball in perfect position, then he's very good. Dominant players dont need perfection to be dominant. Thats another thread for another day. I really dont have alot of faith in the organization when dealing with injuries, especially yao.

 

Perfect position? Seriously? As long as he gets the ball in the post, he's dominant. The problem is that our starting pg is generally unable to get him the ball in the post.

And no, you don't think yao is a good basketball player. The majority of your yao-related posts are critical and illogical.

 

That is a definition for a hater, not matter what, a hater can always find a way to hate.

 

Wait, who has deemed Yao 100%?

What does it have anything to do with the Hornets game? It's a choice between the Spurs and the Wolves. And Adelman decided to use Yao in the Wolve game because the Spurs had Manu and Parker who excelled at running the pick and rolls.

Let me ask you this question the second time: What do you still not understand?

 

Man i think that you are reading wayy to much into it! i understand where you coming from!! BUt CMON Man!!!!

thats just like me trying to explain how tmacs knee communicated to his brain that he aint gonna be the same anymore

TMAC Knee Theory:

Tmacs Knee: Send a signal to tmac please and let him know that pain is a-coming

Tmac: Man i sure dont feel like myself today

Tmacs Knee: Lets just go ahead and put him out of commission there's no way the cells will be able to repair this one

Tmac: I Believe I Can Fly, You will see me running down the open floor, my knee pain will fly away... I Believe I Can be the top 3 player again, Even though i ride the Bench...



Man i think i took this far!

 

Whats going on???

Why haven't we traded Yao Ming for a bag of Peanuts?

I think the Rocket's need to lower the bar, lets trade him for a mystery bag goodies? One bag for a Boy, one for a Girl.

Rockets might be able to pull another D-League player out of that bag.

 

Of course, the brooks guy always come out in force,lol. I have never posted 1 time since yao have been with the rockets and not said he's a good basketball player. When the rockets were winning games minus yao en route to 50 wins, i said they werent better,just different.Maybe your rose colored galsses dont allow you to fully understand basic reading or basketball in its fullest form.

Against utah he gpt the ball in the post without a double and shot 44%, thats not dominant. He's a very effecient post player when he gets the ball in perfect position,but the problem is in the nba,they know that also. So they get him out a little further or beat him to his spot all the while the shot clock is ticking away.If you throw a entry pass,it has to be perfect because he cant pick up his feet to re-adjust to get the ball.You never had to be perfect with all the previous great post players because they had mobility and range of motion. Like I said,this is for another thread and another place.

 

You have been pulling out BS everytime you comment on Yao. AK47/Williamns etc has left Battier/Rafer etc open to double Yao from blind side numorous times.

Go back to watch those games again.

 

You don't need to say he's not a good player when all you do is criticize him for things beyond his control. It's implied.

Shane Battier thinks you're a fool.

And he shot 56% against Portland. What's your point?

 

lol, wut?

Are you r****ded? He can't play back-to-backs, so they worry about matchups to choose which game to play him in.

If it was not a back to back, like the Hornets game, he would have played against the spurs, too, dumbass.

Sometimes, you get so caught up arguing, you don't even see how illogical your posts are...

 

This is a non-story.

Of course its bothering him. That's just the reality of the situation.

Yao probably shouldn't even be playing now, but I'm sure that after missing an entire season, he was dying to get back on the floor. The doctors probably determined that his foot cant get any worse by playing on it so they developed a plan to decrease Yao's workload as much as possible while still allowing him to play.

Restricting his minutes and sitting him in 1 game of a back to back is clearly an indication that he's not 100 percent. Who knows? He may never be 100 percent ever again. His future in this league is very uncertain at this point.
We just have to accept that reality, and take whatever Yao can give us right now.
