    Well it's either the middle or baseline. Baseline is hard for Yao because he is so big and there is not much room there. Going to the middle draws other defenders away and leaves are guys open.

    Yeah but if that all he does he will get flamed here because he is not scoring.

    The good thing is Yao has zero fouls. I could see that he was trying to avoid getting into early foul trouble. I am telling you he'll come in the second half.

    Yeah...they could easily be down by 30 if Rick didn't play Bonzi and Scola the remainder fo that second quarter.

    (Man...is your signature for real or what? :confused: That's sick...think about changing it if you don't mind. :rolleyes: )

    These Celtics commentators are brutal. Tommie Hison and the other jerk keep mentioning how bad the Rockets players shot the ball.

    Bonzi should have started the game.

    The rockets would be so much better if when T-mac played he just assumed the role of one of the guards and took what he was given instead of being hell-bent on forcing up his own shot every other possession.

    I am trying to be optimist, but Yao has been disappointing, big time!
    Not sure whose fault it is. Hoe could he miss a shot by that much within 2 ft???

    Nice comeback but it s obvious that the Celtics are way better than us. When they start playing hard, we can stop them. With T-Mac, we would have been way better because T-Mac also makes Yao play better. He makes it easy for him

    we need scola to play 20+ minutes in the 2nd half to have a chance.

    You don't know what you're talking about. Yao has changed a bunch of shots in the paint.
