    I don't like the fact that Rafer's got 9 shot attempts to Tracy's 4. Rafer needs to do some driving and dishing since he's not successfully finishing at the rim anymore.

    Our D has been non-exist for the first half.

    The Sonics are shooting over 50%.

    I stand corrected. I was not aware of the word defense being like gray. The jail word is a new one to me too!

    I'm still bitter that I'm stuck at work "watching" on nba.com (espn is blocked as is the demon77 link). I have myself to blame, I didn't set the DVR to record last night OR this morning before leaving for work.

    gotta run more plays for tmac to get him into a rhythm. 4 shots are not good when alston already has 9.

    yao and landry have been superb.

    Landry got 10 FTs in 12 minutes. :eek:

    He is a player.

    Yao looked good, so did Landry..defense is pathetic, not getting back on defense, and letting Greene dunk at will. Hopefully this will change next half

    If they don't pick up their defence(defense? :D ), they would be beaten in the same way the Sixers have beaten us.

    I think they will front Yao for several minutes, and our offense would be stagnant together with TOs, giving them fast breaks.

    Well, let's see. I hope it will not evolve into that situation.

    It has something to do with RAfer on his way to a 6-18 shooting night.

    that is going to be ugly when your center got double double and the rookie PF came out with 3/3 and 10 FTAs at the half.

    can we get some justice for the chinamen playing in the NBA? The chinamen are being handcuffed by the prejudice BS calls.

    So hey, do you guys spell offense "offence" as well sometimes? Juuuust curious. I would guess not, as you spelled it as offense.

    Another thing, when Bill is anoucning, a lot of times, he'll say, "The way they are defencing ("C" for you guys heheh) him..."

    I keep thinking, "That sounds weird." I'm used to hearing, "The way they are defending him..."

    I think we should be glad that at least Yao and Landry are playing that way. Give it some time. Landry is very new to the rotation, and Tracy is just coming back.

    HOPEFULLY Adelman can get set into a rotation so that the players can get more comfortable playing together as a team.
