    After three quarters the boys have done well. It took the Lakers almost 4 quarters just to take the lead and we have it back. If they stick to coach's gameplan we can win this one.

    We should run more high post pick-and-roll, which is so damn obvious.

    Why go away from the strategy that made us so successful in the first half?!

    Need to get Yao some perimeter looks and not relying on him to outmuscle Shaq in the low post. I agree with Yetti in that Yao is a finesse center so we should use him to his strengths. He can still be an impact playing around the perimeter and still gets his buckets on the inside around the paint. It's obvious the Rockets would be fools to not utilize his perimeter game fully to their strengths. Also JJ needs to go off again and keep the Lakers honest on defense.

    I don't know. Yao hit both his jumpers in the 2nd half. He should not be doing the low post stuff anymore. Screw it. Only pick and rolls with Yao hitting jumpers if the center bites.

    Why aren't they exploiting the Yao mismatch with Harvey Grant?

    Yao is the weakest rebounder I have ever seen. He would never got the 5th foul had he just grab the ****ing ball. The ball landed right inthe middle of his palm. Where else do you want the ball to land on?:mad:
