    Hubie may be a Yao fan... but he totally missed that call there.

    Skinner pulled Yao's arm down, and that's what the ref saw... that's a foul on Skinner.

    Actually, that's how Rasho injured Yao's arm in the first place... hopefully its ok (it looks like it is).

    you old geezer hubie, he didn't hook Skinner, Skinner hook Yao's arm and yanked it down.

    Exactly what I am going to say. Clearly skinner hold Yao's arm first...

    *nods*

    Yao did foul Skinner a little, it was a ticky tack. What the refs saw was Skinner's *obvious* attempt to hook Yao's arm. Only Stockton gets away with that dirty play. :)

    I think Hubie couldnt see that Skinner help Yao's arm and it made it look like Yao was coming over the top.

    Hubie likes the Rox but probably wants them to lose some games so Memphis can make a push.

    Yao didn't go over-the-back. He HAD to lean over after Skinner had Yao's arm pinned down.
    The last thing we need is that kind of play to hurt Yao's elbow again.
    If you think a ref missed a call, don't take it out on other players, especially when you risk injuring someone..........even if you're that player's b****..........hahahaha.. :D

    yeah and guess how Yao's arm was messed up during preseason.. from a similar dirty play by Nestro. Thats a dirty move.

    Wow... Yao showed the follow thru action with his hand on that block... almost like he does on his shots.

    b/c Walton said it was one of the "greatest weeks in franchise history."

    Tirico brought up the back-to-back championships, and how that may have been a "good week" as well.

    Hubie is giving YAO more love than not today. He generally praises YAO's play
