    I knew that would get someone's attention.

    Man from China. China man.

    No harm was meant from it.

    When did Posey get this range from outside? What's up with a poorly called offensive foul on JJ when Mike Miller was obviously not set? Then Yao gets some foul because Pau flops under the basket. It looks like homecooking to me.

    Grizzlies 16-2 run right now. unreal.

    The Rockets went hot and got too comfortable, and slacked up on defense and started taking bad shots.

    It seems they're afraid to give Yao the ball when the game is tight

    we're still in it though. just need to regain composure. c'mon Rockets!

    Didn't I just hear TNT say "...over the 7-foot Chinaman" right after Jason Williams made a fadeaway jumpshot?

    Lets not get into this, Chinaman is a derogatory term.

    Look it up.

    I know Steve Kerr didn't mean anything by it, but he should know better. Esp. being an announcer and speaking to the pubic.

    Exactly...any google search has it coming back as derogatory. I agree he didn't mean it that way.

    I will, thanks. Again, I know it was harmless, but that shouldn't excuse it.

    And for you guys that see nothing by it, from Merriam-Webster.com

    Main Entry: Chi·na·man
    Pronunciation: 'chI-n&-m&n
    Function: noun
    Date: 1789
    often offensive : a native of China : CHINESE

    Let that be the end of it.

    Well to be fair, the Grizzlies got ridiculous bounces the entire game. Every single time the ball bounced right to a Grizz player.

    Also, I guess we should have kept Posey. He really showed us up tonight.

    Wow, completely incapable of getting a rebound. Absolutely disgusting. Words can't even express how pathetic our team played in the last five minutes.
