Yao was underused because he was planted at the elbow. Adelman apparently thinks he can't take Shaq in the post, but he is wrong. After a clunked...
Poor execution of plays and of basic basketball concepts like rotating the ball around the perimeter to open shooters. Guess who that reflects on?...
The rotation is not the main issue. Steve Francis and Aaron Brooks will not save us. The main issues are our extraordinarily poor defense and...
It's a lot easier to stop Yao when he stands at the elbow. In fact it doesn't take much at all to stop Yao when he stands at the elbow since as...
I think Larry Brown is out of work and he probably wants to get back into coaching. Former Coach of the Year Rick Carlisle is out there also.
We've been 0-6 since then. It's not just the losing streak, it's how we've lost all the games the same way. Some other things may change from...
Coaches DO tell a player what to do and where to stand. They also coach defense. Yao at the elbow is ridiculous. Adelman completely abandoned...
It was ALL ADELMAN. Adelman insisted on putting Yao at the elbow and wouldn't let him post up. Seeing that their coach wasn't really insistent on...
Think it's bad now? What if we go from being a middling .500 team to a horrible lottery team? Adelman's coaching is a total failure.
What's Adelman doing? How about completely wasting Yao's skills in the low post and causing the team to play no defense?
More of the same. No defense. Yao not getting the ball in the post. McGrady forced into tough shots. Guard running around like chickens with no...
Adelman seemed to see Yao vs. Shaq and gave up on Yao's low post game. WHAT A HORRIBLE MOVE. Shaq is beating up on Yao at the other end, one of...
He can't score 60 if Adelman insists on planting him at the elbow. Shaq owned Yao on offense but when Shaq has it going nobody can stop him....
I'm not blaming McGrady. ADELMAN is to blame for this loss. No defense yet again, the Heat shoot 55% from the field. Open jumpers everywhere....
THEN WHY NOT GIVE THE BALL TO YAO IN THE LOW POST??!?!?!?!? Adelman is TOTALLY to blame for this loss. Lack of defense, Yao not getting post...
Why does D-Whistle get bogus calls and Yao can't buy a foul when he was hacked? On the other end.... open midrange shot = death. As usual.
No he isn't. Adelman is planting him at the elbow, and not in the low post. It is all Adelman's fault tonight.
ADELMAN.
Yao is being frozen out of the offense. They aren't even looking to pass him the ball. Some good things happened when he posted up but they don't...
