    The host of the pictures has locked the account because the daily bandwidth allowance was exceeded. Either wait until tomorrow or email me at djs@excite and I will send you the photos.

    Note - I have removed the embedded pictures in the original message and replaced them with a link so it doesn't use bandwidth every time someone opens the page.

    A great morale booster for us by beating the team that we have had the most diifficulty with.Yao is a clutch player,making big plays when the Kings made their run despite not being able to get his shots down in the early part of the game. Francis shot well and was explosive. Good to see Mobley doing well and Griffin made up for Rice's lack of shooting.Francis and Mobley stole the ball well and our turnovers were down which was encouraging.
    Vlade,Peja,and Christie couldn't score which made the difference. Were Yao and Cato fronting Vlade and denying him entry passes and were Peja and Christie forced to take difficult shots?
    I did see Webber make a very easy cut to the basket off a pass from Jackson with no one near them. Did we make adjustments later in the game and what weaknesses were evident when they made their run against us?

    Can anyone tell me how many were in attendance at the game today? I don't know why the NBA.com scoreboard seems to have stopped posting this information... not very bright. They also stopped putting up some other info like the number of lead changes and the total time that each team was in the lead. I'd think they'd only add more info, not take it away, especially when it's pretty nifty info.

    Funny you should say that. One columnist compared Yao's
    hands to a Jai-alai player.

    :D

    did anyone notice
    after the yao pass to Fracsics
    stevie drove to the hoop
    actually there are a few (4) kings surrounding yao and close to the basket area
    i saw yao tied up webber to fend him off from getting to stevie
    divac slow to react because he had to choose to pick up and stevie and leave yao open (within 2 feet from basket)

    that's why stevie seemed to have an open path.,.....which wasn't there actually

    give yao credit

    I read the Chronicle wrap up on the game.I didn't know that Francis twisted his left ankle twice before Yao had to take over.
    He still had 28 points when it happened so I'm assuming that he felt all right when the game ended as he finished with 32 points.
    Did anyone notice how Steve was looking like when the game ended.

    Webber has no respect to anything.

    steve looked fine after the ankle sprain other than a little limp for a minute if that. his last 4 points were on free throws. but man when he was on the ground grimacing i was so nervous. he didn't mention anything in the post-game interview so i assume he's good to go.

    i remember that play. webber thought he was gonna school yao. he was signalling to his teammates to get out the way so he can go one on one with yao. he dribbled left, dribbled right, pump faked, and threw up a brick. after that, i don't think webber challenged him again. yao was like, "Who's yo daddyyyy????" ok, not really. but, he should have said that.
