This question is hard. Morey makes the roster moves but only few coaches can cultivate talent and teamwork like Adelman can. I can't decide :grin:
I blame the CNT duties more because he should not be playing against such inferior competition in the first place unless it's the Olympics....
Yao is a good low post scorer when he doesn't face certain defenses. The problem is, Yao plays the same way regardless of what defense he faces...
Thanks Yao! Please practice your jumpers this summer and maybe lose some weight.
The LA's defense is different than Portland because they are using a smaller but quicker player to defend Yao. Pau has the ability to transition...
Invert the offense. Have Yao play the high post or high pick and roll just to pull out Gasol and give our guards a chance to penetrate. Also, post...
It was clearly an intentional elbow from Kobe. You can tell he winded up his whole body to swing it at him.
If the Lakers go small, Yao can pull out Gasol and have the other guys attacking the basket. Ron, Scola, and Landry wiill have an easy time...
Kobe was volume shooting and Bynum took away some early touches for Gasol so I expect to see more Gasol in the post against Yao. PJ wants to wear...
I like this idea if Yao can't exploit Gasol. Just run the high post or high pnr. It would conserve Yao's energy and pull out LA's only shot...
Yao is in his best scoring position in the post but sometimes it's better to settlle for the outside shot. It's requires less energy and it opens...
Why are you blaming RA? it was JVG who didn't allow Yao to shoot jumpers. In fact, RA has wanted Yao to utilize his outside since he came here but...
Thanks Adelman! I'm glad you're the Coach for the Rockets. Yao has has improved so much just in this season alone. I had my doubts about how Yao...
Your concern is about the offense even though it was fine. The Blazers were committed to stopping Yao whatever way possible and they did that. The...
Who cares how much a player is paid? You play to win. The offense was fine last game. Yes, it could be better but it was more than decent. A few...
It's worth a try IMO. Cook can spread the floor on the pnr or when Yao runs the pnr. The paint will be wide open for our guards to penetrate. The...
That's what I wanted to say but you said it so much better :D I totally agree that Yao needs to help the team in other ways when he isn't scoring...
There is no solution to get Yao the ball effectively when he is fronted. The only way to beat it is to get Yao the ball when the defense isn't...
Fronting existed since D'Antoni Suns and Golden State when they had Harrington. Now, everyone fronts Yao even when they don't go small. All you...
Yao has a good outside shot, I agree. He just needs to keep shooting them, not stop after missing one. If Yao had kept going to the pick and pop,...
