    Ugliest game in basketball history. If Cat and Steve play decent D, we'll win this one.

    Hopefully, Yao remebers that he had a 20/20 game against Big Ben last time out . It is very possible that neither team gets out of the 50's in this one.

    A loss for sure, Yao continue playing with his foul trouble, and Francis keeps shooting the air.

    Piston 123

    Since I didn't make a prediction last time and we won, I'm not going to make one about this game.

    John Hammond (VP of the Pistons talking about Yao Ming)

    John Hammond - It's very difficult because he is very good with his back to the basket and his back to the basket game is getting better. Just as importantly, he can step out to 15 feet and make an open jump shot. He makes every free throw. Just a very difficult matchup. There is a reason that some people say that he'll be the MVP of the league this year and that's why.

    I dont know why he is kissing Yao's butt.. maybe he doesnt want Yao to get mad?

    But anyways I smell a winning streak coming on for the Rox

    J

    Yao 30pts/ 20 rebs/ 8 blks

    Yao, MVP of the league? That is utterly ridiculous. I love Yao but come on. There must be at least 10 guys having better seasons than him that are more valuable to their team. Someday I'm hoping, but not at this point. That's hilarious.

    My prediction is the board will go wild with Piston-Rocket trade scenarios, more than lkely for the Piston who scores the most (Rip Hamilton or Chaucey Bilups?), plays the best defensive game (Ben Wallace?) or has the most potential (Darko Milicic?).
