    Wow 3 great blocks by Deke. He just saved a field goal there. Looks like they only counted two. LOL instigated a tech by Hubie who thought it was goaltending. LOL even more by Snapper Jones wanting to do a cookie monster song by starting with "D stands for..............defense *chuckle*" You just know he wanted to say "C is for cookie and cookie is for me!"

    Bosh has developed a jumpshot that usually only veteran players get after many years of practice. Defending Bosh isn't even close to defending Mo or Juwan. This is what I emphasized before with Yao. If Yao cannot regain his accuracy from short to mid range, he becomes a Cato on offense. Bosh is probably better than Yao on offense now.

    Observations:

    Yao has troubles against this team, but more troubling, he seems like he is just too passive.

    The offense is lousy and there is a dearth of talent here. Griffin flaming out really hurt this team.

    It was the sickest display of defensive prowess I've seen in the NBA for quite some time. It rivals stuff from even the Wallace boys.

    Hmmm Well if they don't trust him anymore, I think this team has a serious problem. Never mind them not playing well, but if Yao(supposedly the focal point of this team) is no longer trusted, then what's the point? I hope you're kidding about them not trusting in Yao anymore or please explain.

    Refs tonigh are annoying. I don't think neither team was happy about the officiating; too many ticky tacky fouls called.

    Second half, we should post TMac or Yao more instead of jump shooting, be more aggressive going to the basket forcing more foul calls favoring us.

    It would be nice if the guards would actually pass the ball to Yao. Yes, most of the time he doesn't have good positiong, but JVG should actually figure out how to get the ball to him. This is getting ridiculous watching Yao running around in circles and no one passing him the ball. He only has 3 shot attempt and I would say that last year's team was more efficient and getting the ball to Yao.

    As much as Yao dominated in stretches last season, the guy went into slumps. Yao is definitely in a slump now. The guy has to ease his way back into the offense. I don't expect Yao to be getting his 20 point games until he regains his jumper and heals up all the way.

    That's pretty sad eh?

    When we think of SF, Cat and Mark Jackson getting the ball better down low to Yao,

    Hopefully time will make them better but this team so far don't know low post or high and low.
