Actually, if you checked the past stats during this season, it seems that Yao usually plays above averager during back-to-back games... while averaging 32+ MPG.... so I don't think scoring some more points tonight will hurt his performance tomorrow....
By the way, Yao is in the game.... let's see if he can break the 40 points mark.... [/B][/QUOTE] The game is pretty much sealed with Taylor' O and other rox's D, should rest Yao for tomorrow's game.
There was a survey on Rox web site, about whether or not MJ would make an impact to Rox. I submitted "No" at that time. Damit, I was so wrong
just saw Calvin pointing at Yao on NBATV - - shouting 'you the man' - - 99-87 win indeed...Yao ruled today..so goes his performance and the rockets offense, so goes h-town.. 24-17 for the 1st half of the season... i say 27-14 for the 2nd half, put them at #5 seed 51-31... where we crush the Lakers 4-0.. dave springfield, mo
I think that's a mathematical anomaly...just briefly looking back it seems like Yao had some of his biggest "clunker" games during the first half of back to backs.
I think for the season, Yao has been a much better player then francis. Franics is having a really bad season.
man, if those bastards hadn't called that last foul i would've only been 3 combined points off on my 97-84 prediction. hilarious calvin trying to tell yao he's the interview after the game and yao shaking his head. man, mj is nice. if nothing, he seems to be a good luck charm. no one ever seems to miss a shot when he passes, no matter who it is or where they are. hell, boki blows wide open layups when yao passes it to him, but if mj threw it to him he'd have probably slammed it like tmac. nice to know we have a real backup pg and 3rd guard for the first time in forever. oh, and when are teams with weak centers going to learn to not single team yao? i hope they never do.
I saw that too and wasn't going to bring it up, but Calvin was also pointing to the seat next to him signaling that he wanted to interview Yao after the game and all you could see was Yao shaking his head no several times... as Calvin continued to try and coax him... it was hilarious. Stuart
