If you read the whole thread, i was critical as anyone on yao. but he's 2/nd half was awesom. he finally played like a man. taking to the rack for a dunk, not afraid o mix it up in the low post. thing of beauty. the key here is Consistenty, but tonight he was great. give him a break...for Tonight atleast!
None called him the biggest bust of all time. spining up stories to get a counter argument going here. i said Amare has turnedout better. and he has. were stock with yao. so we gotta make the best out of it.
Big win for the Rockets. Good to see us keep our composure in the 4th, even after going down by one. Yao and TMac played great in the 4th. We need to see more of that.
yes yes yes...finally i see a rockets victory here in seattle...it only took 4 years...my whole section hated me...stupid sonics fans...
And Fart-son should get the award for the NBA's dorkiest hairdo's. He should try pig tails, he looked like a school girl. And thanks for ticking Ming off, he really got going after you screwed with him. What a dufus. Way to go big Yao, you really took it to him. I am so proud of you!
I'm not talking about you, you paranoid MF. I was talking about a post from the Game Thread from the last game.
Not only did he give us buckets, but also came big defensively, never mention that assist sets up Tmac clutch 3. He was everything in the 4th, we just rode on his back to the victory, his teammates know.
You know what, i think we can. the danger game could be the Warriors. we'll be up for the suns and the Kings, but lets hope we dont slzck off in Oakland. there playing great lately.
REPRESENT!!! lol yeah that was awesome when Yao spinned past Fortson and dunked it after Fortson pushed him....and I'm glad that Yao patted Fortson on the back and smiled..But yeah I think Yao can score..just if he has time to maneuver and operate..just some patience. He was really upsetting me in the first half..like fouling Evans early in the game for Sonics' first 3 points. I thought he could have stuffed Evans. And fouling RIdnour out on the perimeter was not necessary..he could have backed off of Ridnour..especially since Ridnour cannot shoot. But wow Rockets as a team came back...I was proud lol The bench was really happy and supportive too.
There are a LOT of Chinese in Seattle, that accounts for most of it. Remember a couple years ago when Yao was supposed to film a commercial in Seattle? I think the Rox kiboshed it because the business interest behind the commercial was none other than the Sonics owner, who, I'm sure, would have limoed Yao around town and shown him just how at home Yao would feel.
