I've never seen KT pass to Yao. I know he could have in a few instances. Do they ever even communicate?
This is my previous post in other thread after the Sonics game: "Well, since I had so much free time during my supper, I decided to watch part of last night game on tape. On two occasions, while Yao got the ball down low with his back to the basket, KT cut from the opposite side of the key to under the basket with his man chasing right behind him. Boy, that sure looked like 2 players posting down low at the SAME TIME. What kind of offensive play was that. In one of those play, as Yao turned to his right and saw 3 guys right there with him, of course one of them was KT, he stopped and spun back the other way. Luckily he found an open Rice to nail that shot." Some of the responses suggested that it was a design play by Rudy. It was a "good" offensive movement. I totally disagreed. It looked more like KT want the ball from Ming no matter what, rather than the other way around.
Kt is trying to get him a new contract, He knows that he will probably be gone after this year or maybe sooner, I hope SOONER..... He knows that if yao gets the ball , that it takes away his stupid 10 or 12 20 footers that he takes. Just my 2 cents.
I usually just read - but this moved me to post - I totally agree that KT is freestylin' out there - not just with Yao, but he seems to be trying to get his shots no matter what (filling Cat's shoes ?) - instead to letting the shots come within the flow of the game that being said - sometimes he has some great offensive presence and can score (of course he gets some offensive rebound put back points after taking the ball away from Cato or Yao)
