    He's meeting the ball rather than just giving a blind swipe. The offensive player eventually has to go up with the ball close to the rim, Yao use to swipe before the ball got up high and would hit the player's body/arm, now he's waiting until he sees ball only.

    That flagrant foul that knocked him to the floor made Yao mad as hell. Now he's like the Incredible Hulk making them pay.

    I think those Artest comments a few weeks ago about Yao's timing really got to him.

    The color guy just said that the Nuggs were playing "good defense trying to get back into it."

    the nuggets really hurt us when they drive.

    i'd like to see lowry, ron, and shane stay in front of them better.

    Battier is playing ****ing horrible right now.

    He's turned into Rafer Alston.

    I love when other team commentators still tiptoe around the "better w/o McGrady" question, as if it's taboo to admit the obvious.

    He shot certainly is off, but at least he isn't forcing shots. Every shot he takes is wide open.
