    If Bob and Mo play like this every game, we are gonna be a 5th or 6th spot at least.

    and Mo Taylor finally hit an open mid-range jumper.

    That fast break with the behind the back pass from Sura to MoT for the dunk was pretty nice as well.

    it still baffles me why JVG still plays lue. Why doesn't he sub in Sura with Barrett? He's a better PG and makes better decisions with the ball. Anybody got even a sane reason why?

    Why is Tmac taking so many shots and missing so many?

    I like the way Yao is getting to he freethrow line, he has improve on that average about 8 free throw a game. Plus the rebound is very good too.

    Let's hope Sura gets 3 assists and 3 rebounds in another quarter and half for the TRIPLE!!

    One observation I have made in this game is that JJ is holding the ball too long before he gets it into Yao or swings it around. He is actually slowing down and clogging up the offense right now.

    Because this is now his team and he can do what we want. But i rather see Yao shoot a lot than T-mac because he is a 50% shooter.

    Although we're winning, it will be T-mac's shooting that's gonna make it interesting down the game.

    That is his style, like it or not. Last season, on the average he shooted 23 times with 41.7% FG. :eek:

    Barrett might have joined Boki in the doghouse.

    I LOVE SURA :) I LOVE THE ROCKETS. And of course Tmac.

    Yao gets fouled so much..they don't call it damn it.

    I'm thinkin that they might be tired now..but damn 16 FAST BREAK POITNS SO FAR ALREADY?!?

    Dikembe is a good backup for Yao.

    Tmac is doing just fine..he can score on anyone..

    Exactly..we need that 3rd scorer. Looks like Bobby's good almost a triple double so nice. He's surprising me..I hope he can put up like 15, 5, and 5...?

    Jimmy is too slow to guard Richardson..I guess he does make Richardson earn the shots..the only positive thing is that Jimmy has Sura and Tmac helping him on the perimeter..we need that power forward inside to compliment everyone else. Mo and Juwan off the bench will be a nice boost..but that PF!

    I'm thinking that Sura feels comfortable..and he knows his rule..playing with confidence..he's good.
    Tmac and Yao are still developing chemistry.
    Padgett and Bowen know their roles. Jimmy seems fine..he doesn't touch the ball as much that's good. But see..when Sura scores as well as Tmac and Yao..then it's much easier for Jim and howard and Mo.
    We need Mo to be consistent off teh bench and providing us with scoring. He did that last season pretty damn well. You think he can do it this season?
    Rebounding too.

    Yao can be pretty good when he's just doing roleplayer stuff. Go uptempo, and he'll get baskets off the putbacks.

    the warriors just need to tip their hats and call yao their daddy.


    he's owning the glass tonight.


    although i did like that one turnaround where he was clearly bumped, then it turned into an airball and the refs stood there as if yao just shot an airball from five feet without being touched. solid.



    is it just me or has yao gotten MUCH better at staying out of foul trouble the last few weeks. he's been going for pump fakes way less and doing stupid reaches far less also. if he can just keep understanding that he's 7'6 and that's distracting whether you jump or not he can keep himself out of foul trouble.
