    I will excuse the fact that it was a Kobe highlight fest because the greatness of Yao won us that game. That and really good defense (remember what that was like?).

    Thanks for posting - I never get tired of watching us win.

    PS, Kobe got away with so much traveling in that game, especially when he banged knees with Yao...:mad:

    Jeese... So dominant.. He truly causes issues for the other team because they really cant leave him single covered a whole game... Eventually he's gonna get you looks for the shooters... That 09 team..... what couldve been...

    AB/Lowry
    T-Mac/Wafer
    Artest/Battier
    Scola/ Landry
    Yao/ Deke

    Great video really enjoyed it, defense and a big man wins clutch games. I also wanted to point out there was not much aldeman high post motion offense it was all dumping it into yao!

    RA couldn't run his offense until Martin was here and Lowry developed. Yao, Artest, AB are not the type of players who can really run motion offense.

    But the defense was much much better with Yao and Artest in the lineup though.

    Brings back memories...painful memories. We're gonna miss you Yao.

    On a side note, Brooks makes 10:53 look too easy. :grin:

    1) if T-MAC was healthy we might have taken it all the way that year.
    2) Kobe ended Yao's career :(
