    he is shooting horribly all season.

    HE is 49% for the freakin whole season so far. Don't give me that nonsense about his hand that happened just yesterday.

    Bah. Yao is tired. That last goal tending was just bad decision making. He is not very sharp, so he's making bad decisions like that. Either jump earlier, or just put your hand up if you're too late to jump.

    He is tired. I hope Rick Alderman cuts down his minutes in the 2nd half, so Yao gets to play with a fresher and more energetic body.

    Doesn't matter. It's on its way down. Bad move by Yao.

    As hot as Pistons are shooting, we are in good position to be within 7 points.

    Shoulda be 5 points if Yao did not try to block the last shot.

    dont matter, just like offensive goaltending, doesnt matter if it's coming out, if it's on the cylinder dont touch it.........as for yao, the ball was on it's way down, you have to block it no later than the apex of the ball..............not like football where it's not pass interference if the the QB throws it way too off base.

    I am not sure your feelings carry on weight if you are looking for Steve Francis. The further Francis is away from the court, the better our chances of winning.

    Ok, I'll up one for you.
    How about Yao asks himself to be traded just for you. :p

    Trade Yao for goal-tending.

    Yes, it does matter.

    It is part of the rule that if the ball is clearly not going in that it should be a no call even if it is on its way down.

    It is a similar rule to pass interference in the NFL where the refs don't call it if the receiver had no chance of catching the ball.

    and Oh, transformer,
    bash Yao all you want, why do I or Yao or anybody else care.

    It only reflects bad on YOU.

    it's on its way down. the fact that it had no chance of going in makes it a stupid play.

    Yao missed too many easy shots. What happened to his shooting touch?

    Bonzi is nowhere to be found tonight.

    So the search for the 3rd scorer continues.
