    Yao has no legs on his outside shots right now.

    Calvin said it best... "He's elected to go to the perimeter."

    This is just to prevent the haters on the board from accusing this team of always IGNORING Yao.

    There are times when he simply doesn't have the strength to fight for position in the post.

    Yao is tired. But he needs to go inside the paint and foul Candyman out!

    That play is sooo sweet.

    One day, there will be a game where they win it all on that play alone. Its so deceptive (unlike the Cato bomb, or the strategy to get the ball to Yao in the post).

    That's why it works... but it will only work ONCE per game.

    Why in the heyl did Yao not get the ball when he was planted in the middle of the lane on Olawokandi? The guy just picked up his 5th foul, Yao was open right under the basket, but the ball is just passed around. Is there a rule that the inlet pass has to come from the corner? :confused:

    Yao is a bit cold after bench time. Maybe it is time for him to force inside and get layups or FT's.

    I have a vision.
    If Francis can just focus on Defense, Rebounds, and Taking care of the ball, the sky is the limit for us...
    He is the key.

    I'll say here first: Regardless of the outcome of this game, if we can play each game hard like we did this last couple of games, I'll be happy.
