I think Yao is actually hurting the team so far
How many stitches does he need?
1 star
Not worth reading
Adelman actually did bench Yao in key defensive possessions in the closing seconds of the Charlotte and Denver games.
It's hard to believe that there is such a significant difference between the coaches. Maybe there is some locker room disruption going on now with...
Mike James is just 18 months removed from a stellar season in Toronto and 2 years removed from a stellar half season with the Tmac and Yao led...
Why do you think Tmac plays differently with James/Francis than he does with Alston? Do you think its because Rafer sets up the offense the best...
Haha its so obvious Tmac is trying to shift the attention of the fans to Yao when he is saying "Yao is the leader". Tmac gets all the criticism...

Francis plays best when he is free and has a green light to shoot. So far Tmac and Adelman have basically buried him- Adelman with yanking him out...

I don't think the blame should be on the superstars. Granted they may be a bit overrated by the board, but they shouldn't be expected to be...
Last year under Gundy there were numerous games the Rockets won based on pure effort. They outworked and outhustled teams, and as a result they...
Nailed it. Francis looked good, but very old out there. Hopefully with him, it's just a question of conditioning. With Rafer gone, you can...
Exactly.
