    Noticed i said list of players not centers? In today's NBA, positions especially the C and PF are interchangeable!
    Players like Amare, Jefferson may have quickness advantage over Yao but Yao size and strength should simply destroy them too. But what we always see is an uninterested, clumpsy and lazy Yao not a determined Yao!

    Add Okur to the list who owned Yao, i guess no one will complain that!

    i wish both-only-fans would stay pretty quiet.

    i like the fact that when one guy is off the other guy usually has a good matchup. trouble is, some teams have 3 or 4 scorers and our two guys just cant keep up.

    Quite a bit of exaggeration there.

    With the exception of those last minute free throws, Brooks was clanging the rims like there was no tomorrow. Apparently, he is dire need of shooting practice.

    This is meaningless. They play center nontheless, wether you think they should or not.

    It's a bad habit this team has gotten into. We've fallen into this trap against the elite this year before and paid for it. I don't know what the team can do to remedy it. I just don't see Tracy sacrificing the way he plays; he instinctively needs to have the ball. It will come to bite us in the butt in the playoffs. It's not all Tracy's fault, its Adelman, Alston, and Yao's too.

    Hey DUMB @$$!!!!

    If you look at my post before that it was Trade T_Mac...

    I was being Sarcastic of all the YOF and TOF who want to trade either Yao or Tracy after every freaking game...

    As soon as the people on this board realize this is a team where you play 5 on 5 and not 1 on 5 the better off everyone will be.

    Damn Jefferson really does have game he prove that tonight. But T-Mac prove that he wasn't about to lose this game. I was a little worry at the end when they went up by one my heart skip a beat or two. But little did I know they woulnd't score another point. Great win baby.

    Here we go again! :rolleyes:

    How about being happy for the fact that we have TWO superstars that if one goes cold, the other one takes over. Instead of coming out in droves when "your" superstar plays well.

    Pryuen, with all due respect, you're such a YOF. I mean, you call him "Big Yao".

    It has a lot to do with the system also. It's more of an outside-in system rather than an inside-out one. When Yao gets the ball in the high-post, he most likely is not going to shoot it.

    Yao is tired! He was low energy all night. Fortunately, next game will be on Thursday. Hopefully, he will be ready by then!
