Has anyone else noticed how well Yao's been hitting FTs? He's 25 out of his last 26. Trying not to think about tonight's game.
Think positive!!!! He always makes his free throws unless he is shaken up. He just got beat by Bradley...
Shawn Bradley did a great defense job. But he didn't beat Yao. Don Nelson out coached Rudy T. Now that's a fact.
Refs beat Yao tonite. They encouraged Brandley aggressive. Sure everybody can abuse Yao with permission. I saw Nowitzki fouled Yao after Yao's dunk. No call. Why should Rockets play!!! Just let refs tell us they win...
Bradely did not beat Yao. Bradely had a good game by his standard, and Yao had an average one. Bradely was more efficient in his game tonight and was a very good defensive presence, but overall Yao performed a tad better with his scoring, rebounding, and setting up the offense. -G'day-
Has anyone else noticed that whenever Ming makes his first free throw attempt....he makes the second one as well? Whenever he misses his first free throw, he misses the second. I wonder why that is...
i thought you woulda done better bought he was de-stabilized by that finley dunk. I hope the players dont put pressure on him and he goes to hurt himself when trying to deny a dunk. i think that dunk destabilized him through the game and he wasnt aboe to get into it back
Actually, I think it was after that dunk by Finely that he ran hot and scored 9pts in a row in the third quarter. So you could say it got him fired up. -G'day-
I think Yao had a bad 1st half and a great 3rd quarter. I say great because he seemed a bit uncomfortable, but every time he touched the ball it seemed like he was looking to shoot. He scored the only points for the rockets in a stretch because he was looking to take it to the hoop. every shot in the span was w/in 5 feet of the hoop. granted he lost the ball a few times, but he also got fouled. he was a little off, but i could see him dominating if he continues to play this way. how are you going to stop when he's w/in 5 ft. of the hoop.
