    Anyone remember how Smith or Horry used to pass it to Hakeem? They knew the angles and timing (for Hakeem).

    Mooche is too short to even make it over the outstretched hands to adjust for the angles. Francis is better. He just has to work with Yao (his preference) with his entry passes. At least he uses the drop pass.

    But they have to work on that.

    Yes, you are right. Yao still has a problem with jumping quickly (lack of explosiveness). He's not as fast as other shorter/quicker C/PFs.

    Denying us.

    They know that if we get the ball in the post, it's an automatic points for Yao. So, they deny the entry pass.

    ARrrgghhhh!!! :mad:

    Yao won't go out on Stro and Pau is to big for Cato and Taylor. Whatever we do, don't switch those assignments. :mad:

    Not in this game as of now though. All JJ has done is 0-3 FG, 2-2 FT and 4 TO while Posey is 1-5, 0 TO and 1 more rebound.

    :(
