    NBATV sucks, use your own commentators for playoffs!

    Scola is playing like hes afraid.

    Flop-zilla getting the foul! Although the refs should probably let them play a bit more

    One for two free throws just drives me crazy. Lowry and Scola do that almost every time they go to the line. I want to see Yao assert himself, NOW!

    Yeah that's the reason why ppl said Yao is discriminated. You don't see DHoward, Amare or even Shaq got tangled up like that.

    These two hacks were talking about not complaining very foul? They are doing exactly that.

    im watching it on NBATV with the portland announcers- they keep saying "theres no way yao is going to get another foul"- are you joking me? If you know anything about the rockets, you'd know that yao gets called for terrible calls all the time....

    According to Portland announcers, apparently Yao is getting freebies and will not pick up his 5th foul. They were so mad that Yao didn't get fouled when he jumped straight up against Roy.

    Lineup should be:
    PG: Lowry
    SG:Wafer
    SF:Batman
    PF:Landry
    C:Yao

    The commentary is disgraceful, I have heard of cheering for your team before but to these guys actually believe what they are saying?

    I'd really like to see Von cover Roy for a few possessions.

    The POR announcers made a good point though. He said, all they have to do is deny the entry pass and the Houston guards will not look for him. That is so true. We are lucky to be in the game at this point given that our primary option on offense has been completely taken out.

    If we lose this game, the papers will be full of quotes on how we need to go Yao blah blah, but during the actual game nothing is being done to get the ball to Yao. :mad:

    He just stood there with his arms up and they wanted a foul. Dumbass announcers.

    Wow I didn't think Von Wafer would be our saviour!!!


    Before this series started, I noted that if Wafer/Brooks/Lowry played like they can we'll win this series. It's great to see all three are playing good.
