    This early intensity reminds me of a playoff game.... too bad Sura's not here, or we'd be up by 20.

    He did have a big offensive one... and most of the ones he didn't come up with were long rebounds because the Sonics are a jump-shooting team.

    If Yao plays this hard every night, he's on his way to becoming an all-time great.... his energy level was amazing the entire 1st quarter.

    Rebounding suffered without Sura, but Yao gets more touches though.

    Are these guys deploying any fronting or early doubles on Yao?

    From the scoreboard it doesn't look like it.

    Who is covering him anyways.

    What did he do other than having a funny name? Am I forgetting something?

    If they try and front Yao, our shooters will get them... plus, they don't clearly set up Yao on any possession, thus the defense must be honest.

    James, Collison, and Potapenko have all taken turns so far.

    Rashard's 2 early fouls helped a lot.

    No fronting. They are covering him with Ridnour and Allen. Really, you think I'm joking . . . a little bit, each time was in transition. They are throwing every "big man" at him. Nick Collison, James, etc . . . no match.

    Wesley should only play when Allen plays... he needs to conserve that energy for running around the 27 picks the Sonics set for Ray every possesion.

    EDIT: n/m... he listened to you before he listened to me. :D

    Padgett is useless if his shots are not falling.
