    Artest is ice cold. Wafer can shoot, though.

    <3 Von...Big shot baby. Gotta have him on the court in the 4th because he's one of our only players who can knock down outside shots.

    we have kept kobe off the line and from shooting 3's. hand in his face on every shot. and the lakers have 76 with 6 minutes to go. defense is trying to save our offense right now. but we finally made an open 3. the lakers aren't even guarding the line.

    because he doesn't have a guy named Kobe Bryant that you have to pay attention to.

    He has a bunch of tweeners (Battier, Wafer, even Artest) who are all streaky open shooters.

    was yao ever our go-to guy?

    and with the team's adoration of guys like battier, yes we have to win with "hustle" play.

    I don´t know how, but it´s becoming usual to see that we are negative in points allowed with Yao on court, and positive with Landry and Scola.

    Bad stat that haunts us. Artest shooting under 20% and Yao under 20 points. When either of the two are under these numbers we lose. Tie game with 6 minutes left. Lets go guys make something happen. Good shot Von.

    Yao is actually averaging less shots per game after Tmac went out. Weird but true. If he's going to be a 7'6" decoy, then the rockets are overpaying.

    they ran those plays without kobe in the game and it works fine. that's why powell got so many shots under the rim.
