    that was just good defense by Kobe. Kobe couldve blocked anyone's dunk. Its not about going strong.

    Yao is really hurting us this quarter with his slowness on defense and his weak hands on offense. The defensive problem is killing us -- they are going to the pick and roll with Yao every time down.

    Our only chance was holding down the supporting cast. Odom, Ariza, and Walton have at least one three.

    We are at a crossroads right now. The game is slipping away.

    This is where Yao shows his leadership by action!

    Yao saddle the horse and lead them to victory. Do not talk about it . Just LEAD

    yao has had 2 dunks and a close shot. adelman was probably planning on him make more than 0 of those.

    Artest playing 1on1, Yao being soft, Scola missing... Terrible signs :( Need to step up the intensity

    Yao out, Hayes in, rest Yao until the 8 min mark in the 4th.

    Problem solved.

    Let's face it. Extremely tired Yao is about as efficient as a turd on both offense and defense. At least Hayes only covers the offensive part of the suck equation.

    no offensive rhythm at all tonight and we're only down eight. Unreal. If we ever string together a few shots, this game is ours!

    YES, it is a ****ing big deal in the close of a game.

    If we had Al Jefferson instead of Yao I gaurantee we would destroy the Lakers and win the championship.

    yao is trash.

    Thats how they won 60 plus games by those guys hitting shots! Those guys have not been hitting their shots along with their Caveman "who's your b**** " but now they are. Weneed to get that 4th foul on Odom and get his arse out of the game.

    Yao sucks tonight, am not even gonna talk about the blocked dunks. But got for sake roll to the ****ing basket when your team mate is getting pancake in the paint to at least draw your defender away from them and not shy away from the rim until they shot the ball.
