    Yao can't be a closer, he can't grab important late rebounds.
    T-mac is not a closer.
    None of them has killer mentality. Well, Yao might not be able to do it due to his inability, but T-mac just does not have it.

    I actually don't think either of our two stars are gonna get traded. I think they will wait to see what Adleman can do up to the All-Star Break.

    Great shooting again by the Rockets! 35%

    Again, that's something we don't need to work on because these are professionals.

    You just wonder what could have been? I see these guys on other teams that should be in Rockets uniforms. I just saw a highlight of Brandon Roy, he could have been ours. Rudy Gay anyone or Richard Jefferson. AAGGHH!!! Even one of those guys looks nice.

    But in late game situations, Yao indeed is not that great in rebounding. Game 7 against the Jazz is an example.

    I only remember one game this year against the Bobcat, Yao grabbed that offensive rebound missed by T-mac, and as a result, Rox won.

    I don't have to. Common sense tells you that what Charles was saying was that great players need to be able to match their scoring prowess with similar prowess in another category. Kinda like how he could average 24 points and 13 boards a game.

    T-Mac and Yao don't come close to anything like that.


    Honestly, tinman is right, you m'fers whine too damn much.

    It's simple physics. The same reason SUVs topple over.
