    yes, yao is a role player at best. =/
    It's not like he is a point guard and can create his own Offense.

    Why doesn't Adelman rest Yao? It's just one game. Tomorrow we play Atlanta. Depending on the matchups, Yao could dominate them. But if he's tired from wasting his minutes on this game where he doesn't play well, it's a lose-lose situation.

    I don't know why people expect Yao to be a perfect superstar. He's great at certain things. He's very good at other things, but he also has major flaws. He has the potential to be a career 20-10 guy and he's pretty much on that track. That's okay.

    At times today, the ball movement and team offense has looked great. The Grizz have actually played great stretches of defense too. I give them props. The Grizz deserve to win this game because they've played better and smarter and have taken advantage of bad coaching, bad athleticism (Yao), bad fouls (Hayes), bad handles (Head) etc.

    I'm not too mad. The Rockets just need to integrate the good parts of this game with a healthy T-Mac and healthy Artest and healthy Deke (for spot minutes depending on match-ups).

    Injuries are not taking games off. Having everyone 100% for the playoffs > a win in Memphis. I stand by my statmement, knee jerk bandwagon fan post...which is dumb.

    So called "Best center in the league" that gets outplayed by mediocre centers often.

    There seems to be a pattern. Every time Scola plays well we lose and Ming plays average.
