    That was a high intensity first half. We've got to put it together in the second. They're taken Yao completely out of the game; we've got to make them pay!

    Yao can demand the ball all he wants, but if he's not open it's just gonna be another turnover. He couldn't get the ball in the second half of last game and now through the 1st of this one. This is a problem, and a big one at that.

    not acceptable yao or coach? cuz its not yao's fault, u can see him trying hard to get position...but every time he got position, they either throw it a bad pass, or hesistate which than makes yao lose his position

    well since yao can't seal off his man, that doesn't work.

    since yao can't move or jump, that doesn't work either.

    his man will just front him, repeat 1 and 2.


    the other blazer just stands in front of yao until przybilla recovers. repeat 1 and 2.

    It's his job to get open. The coach has to get something set up to help him, but it's Yao's job to execute it.

    First of all, we weren't supposed to win this. Second, we should expect yao being useless when fronted

    Guys stop panicking. Its not the end of the world. I love Uncle Mutombo. He is so much fun to watch. He is our emotional leader. But right now is not the time to let his injury get to our head in this game. We can win this game. Most of our games with Blazers have been close. Just because we blew them out in game 1 doesnt mean it will always be a blowut. They are here to play. They are leading the charge and its on us to withstand it. Use Mutombo's injury as a motivation to go out and punish them and win this. They have shut down Yao and Brooks is too scared to shoot. Yet we are only down by 2 at the half. And thats because Aldridge and Roy have been shooting lights out. Ron is hitting his shots and so is Wafer. All we need to do is focus, play some defense, and execute our offense.

    LETS GO ROCKETS.

    leg completely fractured
    if deke's knee bone is fractured, that's probably more serious (im not a doctor) but at this age, we can probably start a deke apprieciation thread
