    Every watch the fronter? He has to have his hands behind him to try to keep Yao from pushing him forward. A quick drive with a simultaneous hard pass to the fronter's face would do wonders to help Yao out. (... then... "Dang, we've got to learn to get that pass where Yao can catch it; sorry guy.") :D

    I don't think this team is as committed to passing Yao the ball. If they are truly committed, there is no way Aaron Brooks did what he did last night (simply ignore Yao when he had the position and screaming for the ball) and not be pulled from the floor immediately. Freaking Aaron Brooks...

    Yao needs to flop, and learn the art of ebmelsment.

    I noticed it and it pissed me off. He goes right behind the defender and it makes it easier for defenders to quickly front him. Yao from the start should post himself quick before defender even gets a chance to front him. At times it just looked like Yao was doing it on purpose maybe cause he was tired.
