    Yao played like a moron in the beginning of the 4th. When Shaq was not there,
    (1) Why not get low post
    (2) No rebound:mad:

    THOSE AREN'T FOULS.

    These ****ty refs are a joke! Crap calls for Shaq; bull**** calls on Yao.

    That 'foul' against Kobe was crpa (the first one). He just jumped STRAIGHT UP.

    That second one didn't even look like one.

    By the way, Yao is really mentally soft. Instead of dunking the ball, he just chose the lay-up even though nobody challenged him!!

    Oh leave us alone. We're been cheering as much as we're complaining.

    Partly his habit. Partly because he is taller than anybody else. So, when the rebound fall above the other team's player and no chance for any other Rocket, Yao has a shot by poking his hand inside to tip it out. Simple physics. If you watch closer, the majority of his tips in this game are like that. :)

    That was makeup for an actual foul that Jim Jackson took for him earlier.

    Yao definitely needs to better his rebounding technique. It sucks. Maurice is playing well now. I hope the Rockets still have the lead at the 5 minute mark so Yao can come in.

    Man, I would love to see the Rockets win, but win or not, I'm proud of the way they have maintained their composure on the road, against one of the best teams in the league and under a big time spotlight on Christmas.

    Go Rocks!!!

    it is also because Lakers is a smart team and they purposely attack Yao and got him into foul trouble. They started doing it in the 3rd. You have to prevent opponents from penetrating, otherwise your bid man will be challenged. This is in Staples center and this is Kobe attacking Yao, you know how it will be called.
