Dude... its a 48 minute game, and you have to pick your spots to rest Yao. He played real hard the first 6 minutes, and he had already picked up a quick foul when guarding Amare. And there he is... back in to start the 2nd.
Jeff is taking Yao out to keep his stamina up, presumably. This is not exactly crazy given the pace of the game and Yao's conditioning.
Actually, as soon as Sura went out, the Rockets went cold. And, as soon as Nash went out, the Suns got hot. GO FIGURE!!!
James is killing us with his bricks, time to go inside to Yao, and Yao don't pass up your shots, shoot it!
Phoenix is doubling him like crazy, and daring any one of our players to hit an outside shot... so far, only Wesley has been able to do that. Sura and James are ice cold right now.
I know Nick. you would think Nash goes out they'll go cold. but the Opposite happens. i still gotta good feeling we'll take this thing out.
Think Yao has a little confidence right now? He had no hesitation on that baseline turn-around EIGHTEEN-footer over Amare.
That was my first post of the night... and I only made it because he took our first 5 shots (and I think he only made one of them)... but I now stand corrected since he found his stroke.
