    Yao should have grabbed that party whistle out of the mascot's mouth.

    I'm glad we are up by 7 but it should be 15. Dumb passes, dumb fouls, poor shot selection were a problem. But we are playing at a high level, which is good.

    Good first quarter but a bit sloppy

    Let see if they can close out this game and not choke

    stupid yahoo's box score gave howard 2 fts when he made only 1, according to them, it's 32-26 at the end of the first quarter.

    we just saw two lob passes to Yao, first one was successful but it was easily counterd with a second defender coming over and Yao was forced to kick it back out, it resulted in a basket only because Alston made a difficult shot over his defender, the second one resulted in a turnover.

    that's shocking at the stat that Howard goes to the line how many times more than Ming. I am not saying they should be equal as Howard plays much more aggressive in the paint but how can two guys that play the same position and have relative same performance have such disparity in FT attempts?

    it should far less than that.

    So he's in a shooting slump. Everybody has their periods of time when they don't shoot well.

    They said Tiger is a good friend with Shemac. I don't believe it, Tiger does not befriend losers.

    Man, here's hoping T-Mac comes back and just jumps in with both feet. He's on the bench.
