Amare's calls vs. Yao's calls

Yao has to learn to play out of control. We see the out of control player get rewarded with the call all the time. See dirk's 3 point play at the end of regulation against us. Amare just explodes to the basket, usually out of control, and just gets the call. Yao needs to learn to just barrel in there and wreak havoc.

 

yeah, but she looks like a man. so it's ok

 

What make you think he's a she ?

 

if yao plays out of control, he'd be out of the game by the end of the 1st qtr with offensive foul calls.

 

What is the NBA coming to when neither of the two best teams have a center and don't seem to suffer at all because of the refs?

 

Did anyone watch the game on ESPN? They had a little thing after one of the commercials where they showed JVG arguing/talking with an official about the unfair calls and non-calls that Yao gets compared to all the other players in the league..

The ref was wearing a mic I think and they let you hear everything that was being said...too bad I dont remember it but maybe someone taped it.

 

JVG said that Yao is the worst officiated player in the league. He said that they let little guys just beat up on him all the time.

Salvatore replied by saying that Yao was very close to dislodging his defender.

JVG then said that that's because he's getting pushed in the back.

Salvatore said that was not happening.

 

most of the time when Yao try to be more aggressive and bumb into other player, it's either an offensive foul or a no call from the Ref. Ture, Yao is not as strong and althlathic as Amare but the Ref also make it easier for Amare to be more aggressive by giveing him the calls. I thought Yao did good defensively on Amare tonight.

 

What the hell does dislodging mean?

 

A defender has position down low and the offensive player bumps into him, backs him down or elbows him to move him after the defensive player's established position.

 

I noticed.

Once.

There was one time when I saw a call that she made in the Rocket's favor. And it was an easy out-of-bounds call on Richardson. I saw 2-3 times where the calls she made could be filed under "horrendous" and about 2-3 other times when they fell under "highly-questionable"

I think she sucks.
