    It really shouldn't be anywhere near 50/50 at this point. AB should be getting full starter's minutes.

    the good thing is his last 2-3 baskets have been off the ball where he goes through screens, catch and simply shoot.

    gotta get yao more touches though (but yao needs to make more of an effort to get deeper position)

    Maybe Rafer is being showcased for possible trade value... If so, he's doing his best to not get traded.

    Brooks needs to be in attacking mode more.

    Doubt he will ever be 100 percent again in his career. Maybe 90.

    Adelman is getting Chuck Hayes religion, too. It might be a match up thing, but the team is built to win with defense, so it makes sense to get one of the better defensive 4's out there, despite his offensive limitations. They have played inspiring defense over the last two games with the Chuckwagon in there.

    Lol I doubt that is the case. If we trade Rafer then we have no backup PG to Brooks. No way we get a better PG in return for Rafer.

    Don't you hated when Yao did that turn around jump shot?? Why didn't he do his bread and butter play which is backing backing and shoot from the right side. I have no doubt he made more shots with that moves than any other moves. I don't understand why he's not going to his bread and butter play...it's just stupid to see him not playing smart and wasting possessions.

    Its been hard for him to get 19 in a game let alone in a half. Keep it up Tracy.

    I think coach's diliberately giving Yao some rest. We don't need him to post up that much this game.

    It's all looking good. Can't wait till we get up to full strength. Scare!

    Artest running the Point would like downright horrible. Especially if the opponent decided to press him.
