He is playing beyond pathetic at this point. Rox may need to entertain trade offers for Yao before his stock starts to crash.
That was a horrible Offensive foul on Yao. Rasho pushed him as he was going by. The refs need to watch their backs when they leave the Toyota Center.
and now Giniboli runs into Yao with no where to go and Yao blocks the shot - clean as can be man - and the ref blows the whistle you'd think Yao just called his mamma a w****. and Yao comes out and sets an easy pick and the spur player flops into him because he just ran into a 7'6 man so it's gonna have an effect - and they call yao for another foul. two bullsheet calls on yao in 2 seconds.
I stepped away from the desk for 5 minutes and coem back to see yao with 3 PFs on him, i thought this was a home game.
Hmm... they just ran Yao off a series of screens to open him up for a jump shot, Reggie Miller style. Not a bad way to build up the big man's confidence. (I am, however, not advocating that Yao become a permanent Brad Miller type player... even though he has the skills to be.)
Even though Robert Horry won 2 championships with the Rockets, I wanted Dikembe to swing his elbows and knock 2 teeth out of Horry on that one rebound.
If the Rox play the Spurs in the 1st round it will probably go down as one of the ugliest playoff series ever.
Looks like the refs are trying wheneven possible to take Yao out of the game, sure they will correct their bull**** calls when they can't get away with it....... So, by default, Yao faults.... in their books.
Mutumbo is having a cookie... i mean MONSTER of a game so far. I love the way he plays, maybe we should hire Mutumbo as an assistant coach when he retires to help Yao It must be really frustrating for Yao that it feels like it's Yao VS the spurs AND the Refs... I can't imagine having to go through that game after game.
Seriously, it can't go on like this. The Rockets and Yao will be ruined. The refs are driving the big fella out of town, not the fans, not the players, not the organization, not himself. He should open his mouth, and start to plea after each faul. He should look into the refs' eyes and ask them: "Honestly, what do you want me to do? Just step aside and let everybody attack the rim? Is it really a cime by being 7'6? Why don't you just give my parents a tech for giving birth to me with such a big frame? I just want to play some basketball, is that too much to ask? What about from now on, I start with default two fauls, but you guys quit calling bs ones for me?" In reality, I just want him to say "!@#$@# you! your dirty little ba$tard!"
