That excuse is so old. ....the nash=amare thing is so overrrated. anyhow you dont think sura could help Amare if he was here. but it's a pointless argument because he is not here.
yao isn't getting the ball that much and when he does his shot is off. however, he is playing much more agressively this half and it's helping us.
Yao is stinking it up . missing hook shots left and right. thank god howard was there to cleanup his mess.
sura is nowhere near nash. sura helps most with defense, rebounding, and heart. that helps yao more than it would help amare. but like you said its all pointless. now back to the game.
For those with dvr or tivo, did you see the punch on Juwon Howard after he made his last shot to bring it within 1 (62-63). It looked like McGrady blindsided him.
Nice offensive rebound and putback by Yao ... have to give him props for that. Very encouraging to see the Rockets actually come back and be leading in this one when all the momentum was in Seattle's favor in the first half ... it would have been very easy to give up when the Sonics were throwing in threes like crazy.
