Me too!!! Even 24 points was too low for him... but of course, he didn't have guys with the talent of Francis and Mobely surrounding him....but he did have the unstoppable Matt Bullard.
Man-oh-man... Yao just gave Grant the most vicious hip pointer... just dead-legged him right then and there.
I would love for Yao to get a Trible double, he aint gonna get a lot since teams wont challenge him enough sigh. But once we get him even more intergrated in the offense, he'll get more assists.
That is it. I recalled when Yao had 20 points game earlier in the season, there were numerous poster bashing him for not getting many rebounds. Now, when he is attemting aggressive blocks and rebounds and holding two opponents for the benefits of his teammates' open shots, the people are bashing him for not taking shots. I guess, one has to take all the shots, all the rebounds, all the blocks, and all the free throws to deserve to be a Rocket player. Mind you, that kind of bashing sounds familier (to Cat and other players or even Francis) before Yao arrives. I am not defending Yao or Francis nor blaming the posters. It is just human nature. When we read those bashing, we should have that context in mind.
i've noticed cat's been getting a lot of game time recently... perhaps the power struggle between steve and jvg is true?
And the quest to make Houston even fatter begins... 90 points with a minute 38 left. Man...the Rockets have such a great differential b/t PPG and points allowed.... THAT is why this 5-1 start is different than the one in 2001-2002.
Houston fans suck, if i get a decent job after college and live in Houston, I'd so get a season pass, even if it's nosebleeds.
NBA score update: New Orleans vs Dallas... New Orleans scores a very good 97 points, shoots 48% and still loses vs Dallas's 125. Heh...we better bring the D on Thursday.
