Yao hit some jumpers from 15'-17' tonight. If he can make those consistently it's going to create huge problems for whoever the Rockets are playing.
Man does not fly in the house of Mutombo.
The point is that there's so much variation across a season that trying to run probabilities is only going to be of limited usefulness. I think...
If the Rockets consistently ignore Yao in the playoffs you could potentially argue that the blame should be spread around to his teammates. If...
