With the current roster, Rox needs only one magic word to win any playoff series and that is "TEAM". Without any player with "closer" quality,...
True, defense and play-making are the two most important factors to win in the playoff. If your starting PG lacks enough of both, you can imagine...
I'm closing my eyes and praying to Basketball God: "Make it happen 3 times in a playoff game this season... all Rox fans will be very very...
Some observations from watching Rox games: 1. Whenever a player (irrespective of his status) is tired (like Yao when he's been playing nearly a...
Simple: 1 shot 1 point, 12 shots 12 points :rolleyes:
Great points. I wish to add something to your #1, 2 and 11: Re #1: for this season, RA should replace Ron when he plays in the Me-Ron mode and...
Yao's stats on 3 pt shot: This season - 100% Career - 20% So inconsistent :rolleyes: but he's hot this season, therefore shoot more.
I agree with DD's proposal. When Shane's struggling and in a shooting slump, we are playing 4 on 5 on offense. They just leave Shane open,...
Completely agreed, in particular those I have highlighted.
I voted for the second option. To become a real franchise player, Yao has to learn how to play in a more assertive, aggressive and decisive...

In order that Yao can be more effective, especially in the 4th quarter, I think Coach Adelman has to better manage Yao's PT. I often see Yao...
Point noted, thank you. But my definition of "best", "great" or "elite" for Yao is that he has to be able to dominate the 4th quarter of a game,...
I ain't a Yao lover nor a Yao hater. I am just speaking from a realistic point of view. From my observation of his games, I think Yao has to...
Yao just can't play >8 minutes in a stretch. Once he's exhausted he loses his timing, he's becoming slow and he drags down the offense. Replace...
He has created a mental cage which limits his output: playing by the rules and playing not to hurt others hence opponent players take advantage of...
Playing Yao for the whole quarter is not wise at all.
Plus ask Yao to take Ron for a China tour in the off-season and sign a big shoe contract as part of Ron's deal with Rox. That can save some cap...
Ron has shown us that he is now a mature person and is ready to be the leader of Rox. Yao is too nice, plus his culural background and hearing...
