    Come on, people, it's early- we'll keep it close this quarter and then run them into the ground in the 2nd.

    Yao... :eek: :mad:

    Is he that bad against players like Bosh or Bargnani?

    He should be punishing them on offense instead of getting blocked.

    WTH, why can't Yao make those gimmie shots on offense? That would neutralize the fact that he can't guard anyone. This is ridiculous. Toronto's post D is the worst in the league. play Yao like 20 mins for s***s and giggles, we can't afford to lose this one.

    This one is on coaching staff. You wouldn't let Yao guard Dirk, so why Bargnani and Bosh?

    You HAVE to do something different.

    Adelman will let their lead build to 20 points before he does anything. At sleep at the switch as usual.

    I knew Yao would struggle on defense because Toronto's big men can shoot.

    But goodness I didn't know he would struggle on offense too.

    Yao will bounce back though ;)

    yao gets owned by anyone who is 7 ft and moderately athletic. darko millicic, okur, bargnani can all affect his shot.

    Ever heard of Chuck Hayes? We would own Portland in the playoffs.
