    There we go, we post up Yao, he gets doubled, we get open shots, and now he goes to the line.

    As of now, I definately rather see Yao stay in low block. That just seem more effective. I hope coach won't transform Yao to Brad Miller... :(

    He saw an open shooter and was doubled, so he kicked it out. That's good basketball. We got one trey by Bonzi and he had an open lane to drive if he didn't travel like a noob.

    Yao definitely should live in paint. JVG is right.

    I don't care what the score says, we're getting great shots and they are making all of their points off of long jumpers. We're good.

    i understand. but yao just looks useless out there. we need yao to do what he does.

    tmac can still score w/ yao in the low post so we have to sacrifice the easy buckets for tmac at times. when yao is out, then tmac should look to drive every time.

    I'm getting tired of players passing up a wide open shot for a crappy one.

    There's nothing more frustrating that seeing TMAC clank jump shot after jump shot against a disciplined, championship caliber team.

    Not bad to be only 6 pts down after SA shoots were falling from everywhere.

    Down by only 6 with the spurs playing as well as they did on offense really isn't that bad. Rockets got some really nice looks guys just couldn't finish. Growing pains.

    Man, Bonzi is a Spurs-killer. We should start that guy against them, scares the living daylights out of their fans, you can see it in the whites of their eyes... :p

    I'm also confused on this, could this mean he's still not comfortable with the new system?
    When he holds the position in the paint, shoot is no. 1 choice rather than pass out.
