    um
    isnt that the whole point of a last posession?

    Yao's got some kind of curse where he has a bad string after PotM honors.

    Why is it that whenever someone mentions Yao's good FT shooting, he misses one? I always know he's gonna split a pair when they mention his FT.

    that's fine defensively b/c i think we'll see a switch in the next half (hopefully) but he needs to abuse al on the other end.

    Foster then Bogut now freakin Jefferson outplaying Ming.

    Why is Ming sleep walking when Tracy comes back? Ming is better than these guys just wake the F up!!

    Rockets should go back to what is working best for them: PF scoring. Seriously, with Scola and Landry making the majority of their shots, they should do it until the other team decides to stop them.

    Lol, watching this board is like looking at "Apocalyse NOW! YAO!"

    Seriously, Yao might be the Rocket player of the half. True, Big AL might be dominating...who the hell wouldn't be if you got like 50 touches even after missing like 5 shots.

    Yeah, hes been playing like crap the last few games. And its not because of McGrady. There are some idiots on this board who still think that

    Minny, especially Jefferson, playing inspired right now, we'll just have to weather the body blows they give us

    right now I'm guessing they aren't running the Princeton Adelman offense, just a bastardization of the JVG offense with a little more movement

    The Rockets kind of coasted through the half. The T-Wolves are playing a lot better. Hopefully the Rox don't think they can just coast all the way to the Cavs game.

    when he went to a bad team ;) seriously, it's very easy to get good stats on a VERY VERY bad team. look at joe johnson. he has talent on his team but he doesn't win but he has decent stats.

    kg has more impact than al but his stats are nowhere close to al. stats are overrated.

    but in this game though, he's ballin

    Yao probably averages the most minutes per game in ROX. It is not good for a big guy of 300 lbs.
