We don't have ONE good passer in the game except Yao. That's horrible when he's the best passer on the floor for your team.
i was disappointed scola didn't get more shots. it wasn't like all his opportunities came from being open. he destroyed aldridge in the post several times, with 2 of the nicest moves i've seen from a post player in a while. in the 2nd half, brooks and artest tried to do too much and they are simply not good enough. if we can't get it to yao, go to scola. he can take aldridge off the dribble EASILY or in the post.
Pretty much my feelings. Along with pathetic defense once we actually go the lead in the fourth quarter, as if we were up by 20 instead of just 4 and when the Blazers started running away with it, the Rockets still couldn't find a way to get their offense to click.
All risks are relative. Pass to Yao, you have 10 percent chance of TO, but in the end you still have 50% chance to score 2 points. It's MUCH BETTER than Books or Artest got blocked or rushed a jumper.
Right now our best option is Scola He can handle Aldrige 1 on 1 in the post. Is not bein doubled. Has the best scoring average. (17.6) Has the best shooting average. (.585) Can shoot for virtually any spot in the paint when open. We got to give him more than 2 shots in the second half.
AB is killing us. He is dumb and incapable. Unfortunately, he has a big ego and thinks he is great. Darn it!!!!
I've said it elsewhere... when Scola is scoring at will, as he was in the last game, you ride that horse until the wheels come off. Going away from him was idiotic.
