    I say let Yao guard KG, Stro guard Blount. Athletic PF (aka Amare) tends to have problems against big body and Stro have the athleticism to block Blount's shot.

    Yao with 14 according to Yahoo. Only Alston has made 2 field goals except for Yao.

    Yao would foul out in .2 seconds... espeically with Mauer reffing this game.

    Yao's on the bench with three fouls. Time for the role players to step up...

    LOL@Bullard. He says, "Look at all those White guys...I mean white jerseys around Yao". :D

    On a sidenote, man does this team stink or what without Yao and McGrady on the floor together, I have never seen such a drastic drop-off from the top two players to the rest of the roster.

    Plus you're talking about an in game adjustment. JVG does not do any adjusting on the fly he sticks to his game plan even if he's losing by 30 pts.

    At half-time, JVG shows the rockets what they've built.

    I just really wish for van gundy to let Yao and Stro play together more often. Stro compliments Yao so much better than Jho does, especially on the defensive end. in a game like tonight against a guy of height and length like KG, Juwon should not get the bulk of the minutes as he is.

    How about Phoenix without Nash and Stoudemaire? I guess this remains to be seen.

    Wow, Juwan Howard: 1-6 from the field, 3 turnovers.

    How inspiring.

    I still maintain that Hayes is our best power forward and should be getting at least 20-30 minutes a game. The Howard/Swift combination was a combined 2-10 from the field. :mad:

    Back to back 3s from Rockets after Yao was taken out - not a bad half all things considered. The only concern is Yao's 3 PFs.

    Whats up with the refs? Did they just go back to being blind again? What the hell. BS calls on Yao on both ends.

    I don't do any counting when watching games.

    And you obviously need to practise more!

    BTW, you sig is hilarious, though the two versions donot match tightly

    The jumpers Juwan missed all hit the front of the rims, meaning he had no lift whatsoever.
