    How are people still using this circular logic? Did last week just escape everybody's mind?

    Yao is a very big part of this team... but it is, after all, a TEAM... and a very good one.

    If Yao honestly isn't happy in this enviornment, maybe he should talk to T-mac about what life was like in Orlando being the only good player... Yao is happy... you fans should be too.

    McGrady has been driving a lot more lately. It's great to see.

    Well, Bill just said "Tracy with a Facy!!"

    What the hell is a Facy?... (and if he was trying to come up w/ a hip way to say 'facial'... that was not it).

    I sincerely wish that the Rockets can win a title in the next 12 years with Yao being treated as a role player among role players.

    Yao cares more about winning then getting touches and shots..he's that kind of guy

    If we were down by 15 then maybe you guys would have something to gripe about

    Man the main reason I want to see the Rockets win it all this year is to see if JVG would actually smile and jump around if they wont it

    while yao was on the bench with t-mac he was happy for his teammates/friends and all these YOF do is whine and complain. YOF are a joke. you make me freaking sick. one of the best half of the season by the Rockets and there is nothing but whining and complaining for Yao.

    selfish fans of a selfless player.

    I'd be happy... because that would mean we'd have one deep-ass team.

    The ball is like a hot patato to Yao tonight. Why is he always in a hurry to turn it over? I hope he wakes up from this jaywalk.

    Hell, Yao would not stay with rocks for 12 yrs with that kind of treatment.

    It is great to see, but he still is not getting the calls he deserves to get for driving that much.

    Thanks Nick, I'm always respected you for your BB knowledge. I'm just a little concern when we rely too much on our jumpshots and don't get Yao involve when he is singled coverage, we are making life harder for us when the outside shots stop falling!

    I would be happy too. Actually I would be happy to make max money by not even playing a minute. Life would be much easier and sweeter if that's possible.

    Of course... after all, we don't want to turn into Seattle or Phoenix. :D

    I just think that its silly to complain about this style of the offense (not just dumping it into Yao every possesion) because this is exactly the type of basketball that turned this season around.

    If you're not a fan of watching this team play like this, you haven't been paying attention since January.

    We're not solely a jump-shooting team, we're not a post-up team, we're not a team that relies just on one play, we're not a team that relies just on one player, and just when it looks like we're diagramming one play... we switch it to another.

    In the end, this team is almost IMPOSSIBLE to game-plan against because they're just so damn versatile.
