    Rafer had a full 2 seconds when he got that rebound. Plenty of time to take a couple dribbles and throw it up.

    Does anyone else get the sense that Scola misses a lot of defensive assignments? When Portland runs pick and rolls, Scola doesn't pick up his man a lot of the time.

    that's fine. but we scored 25 pts in that quarter. shot 50%. played great D.

    we have other options. if we don't need our stars to score and we don't struggle offensively, that can only help us in the long run. the purpose of this year is to get a more balanced offense, show that EVERY PLAYER who steps on the floor is a legit threat to score...

    if we were struggling, we would go to yao but we were doing fine.

    He's 5 of 8, so he's over 50%.

    I am not a yao fan but seriously, keep playing like this and ingoring yao will definitely cost our game. RA is smarter than most of us-hopefully-he will adjust in the fourth.

    Have you seen Tracy?

    BTW, someone please tell him to start final plays of quarters with more than 6 seconds on the clock. That's the 2nd time this game, because no time is left, Tracy has only one option to pass the ball and we don't get a good shot (or any shot).

    I am a yao fan but i'm we're not doing too bad cuz he's attracting a double team leaving rafer open, and we're winning.
