    Even Blout is allowed to take 12 shots by the Celtics. The Rockets can easily set up Yao for some outside jumpers if they really want to.

    We are missing everything. Everyone is missing. FT, wide open, ...
    It's a pity we may lose this game. But it may be a good warning to our team.

    Of all the freaking teams in the league, the Celts are one of my most hated and fat ass Walker on the top of my list. I'm having a stroke right now guys, help!:mad:

    Only Yao and Barry are shooting well, but not nearly enough. We should concentrate on them tonight.

    As for T-Mac, Sura, Wesley, and everyone else are shooting terrible, it is just one of those nights. No need to single one player out

    Don't throw that BS to me. I said all along that this team will be one and done in the playoffs if they don't get into the habbit of going to yao more. You don't expect your role players and perimeter shootings to win the playoffs, do you (unless your name is MJ)?

    we can't make 3's, layups, ft's........we might as well resort to pulling a ron artest and kick some ass before they leave.

    I notice that Yao is a really good man on man defender but he's really susceptible to the drive and dish. Someone's gotta teach Yao not to commit all the way when someone penetrates.

    Tmac does defer to Yao.

    And Tmac can drive.

    And Yao can score.

    They are All Stars. One of the best duos in the league with best role players in the league.

    But...

    Tonight, Tmac looks tired. He looks like he doesn't have energy. He doesn't look quick or powerful...he did drive and didnt' get many calls..stopped.

    Yao looked a bit tired too..maybe fouled or something..Yao isn't as active and like energetic as he was against Sonics and Suns..

    Just a bad night. The rest of our guys are off too..and yeah mindset overall team isn't in it. Mike James and Clarence Weatherspoon and Ryan Bowen look all right though.

    I had hope that we were coming back when Barry made a 3 with our small lineup..now I don't know lol

    calm down, I'm agreeing with you. lately, the team has been living by the perimeter and today they are dying by it.
