    BTW: have you heard the comments from the commener about Tmac's murmuring? he was starring at sura and said "lob pass, lob pass"..... that's kinda interesting.

    A lot of times the guards will try to send passes at YAO when they are up in the air and in trouble with no other option but to fling it

    The Heat have been more effective today with Shaq on the bench, and Doleac fronting Yao. That indicates that they have much better role players, and better help defense... and that will win you plenty of games in the long-run.

    There's no question about it..we need better role players

    our guys haven't been able to knock down the open shots and its killing us everytime!

    This just shows how pathetic you are. Does Yao miss the pass on a regular base? Please get the fact straight before you type these words.

    People complaining about Yao not getting enough shots. Take a lot at Shaq's numbers. He's not getting the ball anymore than Yao is and he's one of the most dominant players to ever play the game. In fact, Yao has probably gotten more touches than Shaq has.

    They're just a beter team on paper... and they're executing better this game... tough to beat them like that.

    Also, I'm now preparing for the anti-Barry and anti-Spoon tirades that Sura got because they didn't pass the ball to Yao with Doleac behind him.

    if Yao held on to some of those offensive boards this game would be a lot closer right now.

    I think the key was the wide open 3's. Miami's defense obviously involves packing it in, so you HAVE to hit your outside shots. We had plenty of WIDE OPEN looks on those 15 three point attempts, and we were only able to hit 4 of them.

    I'd say 3 times in one week is pretty regular. One against NY, one against Sacremento, one today...and I'm probably missing some.

    The crux of my argument isn't that you shouldn't pass to Yao, especially when he's open, that's moronic. But if you seriously think Sura is actively looking at Yao, saying he's open but I'm not going to pass to him, then you're not paying attention.

    I will be really happy if we can win this. Heats just played much better so far.

    The same bad plays from our PF and PG today. We got to get better role players.

    See the difference. People actually don't complain barry or spoon's not passing to yao. Cause we know Yao is not holding his position agaist Doleac. But as for sura, hmm......
