    I didn't care to mention how many games they won because that wasn't my point. My point is that we're blaming the players for not scoring, which we should, but we also need to take into account that JVG kills players offensively, history shows that.

    JVG has had more success than anyone on this team, but that doesn't say much to me.

    I'm not targeting you, but JVG's one trip to the finals has for some reason put him on a pedestal. He went on a short season and coached the Knicks to a mediocre 27-23 record, and then lost to the Spurs 4-1.

    I always thought that JVG was overrated, and his coaching so far hasn't changed my mind. There are easier ways to win in this league than the way we are playing.

    BTW, JVG did lead us to the playoffs, but he only improved our record by 2 games, and lets face it, we only made the playoffs because Utah, Portland, and Phoenix were much worst teams than the year before.

    I second you, man.

    Yao's hook shot and jumper are way off this season. Slowly his foul line shooting is back, but not his jumper. I watched almost all games, and I didn't remember any 16 feet out jumper. Yao's strenght resides in his versability imo, but it is gone so far.

    You are hilarious, you have the intention to convert every post to a bash-yao centered post.

    Actually, most of fans are pretty numb now. Rockets just lost so much that they are even not interested in bashing post. Yao's performance is generally below the expectation so far. So are the cases for every other player in the rockts.
