    Alston is just not a natural passer, and the offense is bogging down. Need more movement off the ball.

    Ming is again dropping the ball of LEADERSHIP,

    his damn cement feet. Great players make critical game winning plays Ming, with actions on the court not with the mouth at the press room when your team already lost.

    Make critical plays for the damn team man!!

    The Refs are letting Garnett play very physical on Yao on the defense end!

    Thats the difference between Yao and KG...

    Nonsense. If Battier makes one of these wide open threes, we are ahead.

    I don't care - even if we lose, the morons who were trashing Yao and the team at the start of the game have been proven wrong.

    We are playing the hottest team in the NBA without our leading scorer and the team is showing great fighting spirit.

    Yao has to take KG to the basket and score or get fouled. Quit passing the ball out for jump shots. That is the part of Yao's game that I HATE!!!! This is where he needs to dominate, score or at least get fouled. When Yao doesn't score or get fouled, KG has the advantage on the other end because he is scoring or getting Yao to foul him. Come on, let Bonzi do it then..... He will take it to the rim...

    Because half the offense becomes just getting him the ball... which is fine if he's dead-on with his shots, but he isn't tonight.

    We had Boston on the ropes with the combination pick and rolls with our quick as lighting guards... but KG can neutralize Yao if Yao doesn't have the jump shot working.

    Garnett's 2 baskets were 20 ft jumpers. You give him that all day. Yao missing the left handed layup was crucial though.

    Why if Aaron Brooks got us the lead by steals and assists; would we pull him...

    I have to agree. Nobody really expected us to win this game or even get this close to the NO 1 team, right? Just enjoy the game.
