    I'm not blaming the officials or anything, but I'm curious to see if there are any players out there that average more offensive fouls per game than Yao.

    During the Suns-Rockets telecast-Mike Breen mentioned that Yao had the most fouls of any player in the NBA so far this season.

    What about charges or other offensive fouls? I think Yao's been called for at least one almost every game.

    How come it was an offense foul on Yao? Defenders fronted Yao so aggressively and Yao was not allowed to fight his position? Ridiculous!!!

    I respectfully disagree for these reasons:
    1. Luther plays hard and busts his bust day in and out
    2. He's a rookie and will make rookie mistakes...
    Now Yao..thats a whole different story...no one has really bashed him until now because he has had plenty of time to get his **** together.. ;)

    This team is just frustrating the hell out of me. But can you imagine when T-Mac comes back...we'll be blowing these teams out.

    What sucks is that we have been in every game this year with the exception of two or three. T-Mac please come back :( If we do one thing almost correct its play defense with the exception of giving up 999,999 offensive rebounds per game...........

    We might actually break a whopping 85 points per game too!

    Seriously, watching Rockets games right now is about as exciting as watching paint dry.

    Wow, this team really isn't fun to watch. I haven't enjoyed this game at all. Or the last couple of them. :(

    Watching the Rockets has been a hobby of mine because it's fun.....but not anymore.

    Get well soon TMAC. We really suck with out you.

    It's your team TMAC. You are the leader. COme back and make this an NBA level team again.

    couple of thoughts:

    1. this is a really bad product right now.

    2. yao disappoints me. i want so badly for the guy to do well. but i feel like we're not seeing any development at all, at this point. i don't know what part of his game is improving. that's discouraging. he is not the kind of player that can carry a team on his back with any regularity. i think that's what disappoints me most...because i really felt like he'd be that kind of player by now.

    3. it's a long season. they can come back. they really need mcgrady. obviously.

    4. i miss bob sura.

    Derek Anderson is such a stupid player. Gasol was struggling and Jones shot well, and yet he selected to double team Gasol and leave Jones open. Stupid.

    The guy can't make layups or dunks. As pissed as I am at Van Gundy, what the hell is he supposed to do about that? Yao Ming has to start playing like a man. Shane Battier should not be outplaying him.

    Well I told my friend it would be Memphis by 6, and it looks like I'll be close if not dead on.

    Losses don't even bother me anymore...I'm numb to this horrible play by now.

    Is there another player in the NBA that blows more shots within 6 feet than Yao? I've seen 5 ft midgets make shots around the hoop better than him
