    Damnit Yao can't play strong against Howard with those 4 phantom fouls :mad:

    If the refs weren't so gay, this matchup would have been more epic. It was so one sided before now it's so one sided the other way...

    Yao is just biding his time until the end of the game, then he can play strong again!

    GO BIG FELLA GO!

    Relax, relax. He's got a mildly sprained ankle and he's playing on it. It's just the way it is. Hopefully it doesn't get any worse

    That last call on Yao was correct but Yao should only have 2 fouls tonight while Howard should have at least 5.

    If it wasn't for Scola and Landry who got 4 fouls on D.Howard....

    Yao wouldve been annihilated already.

    one day, Yao should jsut punch a Ref and get a 10 game suspension. When he comes back from that suspension, he'll be properly officiated

    It's not a video game where you can turn off the injuries, deal with it

    Don't celebrate too earlier. The ref can get it back for DH's favor any time they want.

    i don't want to play orlando anymore..
    the league wants to promote dwight "no post up game" howard by calling phantom calls on yao to take him out of the game and not giving the same standard to howard.
    nelson goes into yao = foul on yao
    landry goes into howard= no foul on howard

    Yao is never going to be treated fairly for 3 reasons:
    1) He's not vocal and will never flip out
    2) He's chinese (yes it plays a role)
    3) He's soft

    Dwight Howard is getting these calls in the second half because they don't want their younger "superstar" "Superman" to be exploited by legitimate bigs.

    Dwight Howard is the brand of player that Stern loves, so of course he's going to get favorable calls when they sense he's in trouble.

    If Yao shot freethrows like Shaq he would go to the line more

    I think he would get more than 10 games.

    Why are the Magic supposedly this great team ? I don't see it, the main reason they're in the game is because the Rockets cannot play basketball right now.
