Finally something in English so we can push pause on slamming those Chinese fable writers. Give me the unbiased US media anyday. Good old Dan...
Oh yeah, swat him Yao. He's all show. (Make sure Cato is right behind you though.)
Malone's out-to-hurt-you behavior is compounded by: 1) Whining to the referees about every call. 2) Getting almost every call to begin with....
The flip side to this is to get Shaq's body off of Yao and hit a moving Yao in the lane, should O'Neal decide to help. Reason #8 (I'm losing...
That's right. I'm lonely. You sound nice. Oh, and I'm innocent!!! :D
Desihooper, I'm on the same page. Penetrate off of PNR to involve their bigs in help D. Want to know the most obvious sign the Lakers are...
Toast, Sorry, misread your 1st point. I see what your saying. Yes, I agree that's one of the reasons SF penetrates easily off iso. I'm not...
Umm... I've never heard of an NBA team with winning aspirations willingly give the other team the lane. Shaq's not leaving Yao to help. Malone has...

:) I'm still lobbying for Kobe's new nickname to be "Alleged". Makes a great chant. "A - Lle - Ged..... A - Lle - Ged...." Mix in a few "Kobe...
OK, I didn't post for game 4. I felt it would be a one or two posession game, the outcome far from guarantee-able. I yelled myself hoarse at the...
Alright, bigben. I will be there, too. It will be loud, it will be raucous, it will feel like the playoffs are just starting. I'm guaranteeing...
Brevity will get you far in life, AGBee. ;)
:) Please, wink ;) for people, so they know you jest. These are sensitive days. :p
10) The Lakers are the match-up that Yao Ming and Steve Francis' games complement each other well. 9) Yao is resilient. Get used to Indiana...
Wasn't the injury Piatkowski's 1st serious ankle sprain? Anyone that plays basketball knows the 1st time is the most painful and takes the...
