Are you sure it was Yao Ming and not some other 7'6" Chinese guy? Maybe it was just some dude who looked like Yao and likes to leech off his...
Yeah, I don't mean to malign a guy for having an accent. I guess I was just surprised at how thick his accent was. Quite a contrast from the...
Shaq gets hacked and rarely gets the call, but the referees usually give him the benefit of the doubt and don't call him for an offensive foul...
Thanks for the clips. Are these the regular Houston broadcasters? What's with the color commentator? I don't know if I could listen to him for...
Maybe Yao will pull a Carlos Boozer. Psyche! I don't think the Rockets would sign Yao to a one-year deal because it would be clear that it...
Of course he would never say he hated his coach. But this type of dynamic breeds resentment. That's not a good sign.
Yao's unhappiness is not a good sign for the Rockets. Everyone automatically assumes that Yao will be loyal to the Rockets and resign, but if he...
I can completely understand why Yao hates getting chewed out by Van Gundy. This is a very common phenomenom in immigrants to this (or any)...
When the pick and roll is run really well, it can be almost impossible to defend. Just look at the Jazz many years ago or even the Detroit...
Exactly. When T-Mac slashed to the basket, it was great. Last night, he got two clean dunks off of his slashing to the basket. Kobe does this...
Yeah, it doesn't take a genius to realize that without either T-Mac or Yao on the floor, the offense is non-existant. Watching the first two...
I just watched the game from last night and I must say that the Rockets pick and roll defense is terrible. It is so predictable. Everytime...
Just watched the game and I agree wholeheartedly. Yao is slow obviously and that's not going to change, but since the other players are also...
I have to admit that I was somewhat fooled by Jeff Van Gundy. During this TV appearances last year, he seemed pretty upbeat and complimentary of...
I hear a lot of people dismissing or at least minimizing the Rockets problems by saying something along these lines of "It's only nine games in...
Okay, no where in my original post did I state that Yao Ming wasn't embraced by the fans. I think he's been strongly embraced by the fans. I...
Del Harris is not the answer. He has an amazing roster on the Lakers before Phil Jackson showed up and he couldn't win. Phil Jackson got the...
This is true, but Shaq and Kobe were on the Lakers for three years before Phil Jackson got there and they did nothing before them. In fact, the...
Do you ever get the feeling that people want to see Yao Ming fail? Ever since he joined the league, he's been the target of derision and...
You're right. I forgot they switched back to best of seven in the first round.
