The Lakers were determined to minimize Yao's impact in Game 2. They changed their defense on Yao with fronting and by replacing Bynum with Gasol....
You probably need to rewatch the games where opposing teams front Yao. More often than not, Brooks would become very indecisive as he seems not to...
Don't know if anybody else caught it. Replay clearly showed Jordan Farmar's feet stepped inside the line of the restrict area when he was trying...
Then it further supports the argument that Brooks should play with the second unit. Really an easy solution.
It's a tie between Bird and Pippen. When LBJ gets a few rings, he'll get the nod.
The team won despite the bad games from Brooks. Doesn't matter how you slice and dice it, Brooks played horrendously in these three games. It's...
Three horrible games in a row. Three, not just one. I think that was what prompted the take-the-ball-out-of-brooks'-hand thread.
LOL ... I like it.
Two things (seem to be conflicting with each other): 1) stick with what's working and 2) mixing it up. If Yao has a hot shooting streak from...
In the first half Yao missed several shots really bad. The shooting forms and rhythm were kinda ugly in these shots. At one time it looked like...
The move by Adelman to keep Lowry in the 4th quarter along with Brooks is a brilliant one, as neither Landry nor Wafer was contributing. Lowry...
IIRC, two out-of-bound calls were in Rockets' favor in the 4th quarter. One (Odom on fast break) could've been a no-call, the other (the one shown...
I kind of was wondering about the same thing. [img]
Wafer back pain may still be lingering. He may feel more pressure to do well against his former team. Playoffs are a different kind of animal from...
How to deal with full court pressure defense when the game is winding down. Thanks to a relatively sizable cushion late in last night's game, the...
Understood and appreciated, but this is a fan board and I'd like to get technical sometimes. :p
If we lost Game 3, Yao's poor FG% is certainly going to be under the magnifying glass. Overall performance is fine, but game-wise stats are...
Oh boy, don't get into what blender and I are discussing. "Against people" is another one you should avoid using.
I counted 10 and am pretty sure Yao did similarly (in terms of number of categories in which he improved). BTW I see a lot Scola voters keep...
Wouldn't it be called overachievement award or most improved player award? But bad free throw shooting was one of the biggest reasons we lost...
