Great Stoudamire is on fire and 3 guesses on who's supposed to be guarding him.

Stoudamire is killing us. Who is guarding him?

Tied game now. Portland scored 13 straight and our offense has dried up and we only scored 3 points so far this quarter. Damon Stoudimire is heating up to.

JVG made a mistake taking Yao out in the first quarter...

Yao was NOT tired...

Yao was playing awesome...why shortchange a guy when he is doing so well...

Cat's game has been a little topsy-turvy lately...offensively and defensively, although nice block on stoudamire...his shooting needs to be more consistent, double-team on Yao is giving him wide open looks

Rite now, Rox is at best when both JJ and Yao is on the floor.

Where is the D? Left guys wide open to shoot three?
Yao made several great passes, but nobody is able to get a basket! Mo needs to sit down, he sucks! Also, guards were not feeding Yao as in the first quarter. Stupid team find a way to lose the game, and that is exactly what Rox is doing in the 2nd quarter!

Rasheed just nailed a 3 and the Blazers are on a 20-4 run. Our Defense needs to step it up again and JVG should've kept Yao in the game through the first quarter to prevent that quick of a run because when Yao's out, its a lot easier for Portland to run those fast break plays without a tall tree(YAO) standing there and easier for their big men to create. Yao should also try to take shots closer than 15 ft to the hoop. Anything past the foul line is too far of a range for him.

It appears what JVG said yesterday was not head by our guards. When Yao hot, they stopped giving him the ball in the second quarter. All he had are offensive rebound for an attempt to tip in and foul shots.

The same could be said for JJ. We should keep going to these two guys until Portland collapsed. But allowing them to come back, it turned around the game.

Hope Yao could recharge and take charge, man.
