Care to explain http://www.82games.com/0809/0809HOU.HTM ? When Yao's on the court, opponents' FG%, FT attempts all down dramatically, Rocket's FG% is up a lot. That's more than enough to offset the 1 more TOs caused by Yao per 48 minutes.
This is hard to read... -Not touching the ball is not what made Yao tired and inefficient. Running back and forth, yes. AB needs to learn to slow it down a tad at times. There are times to go full speed and there are times to acknowledge your dominant center. -AB is cold-blooded and he's a higher percentage of cold-blooded than Rafer. As far as shooting inconsistently, I'm sure you'll see that on less occasions than you would with Rafer. It seems Aarons play depends on confidence, and I think when he was moved back to the bench, his confidence took a hit (even though he knew it would happen). Now that the starting job is his, he has all the confidence right now. I'm sure there is going to be times that some will say they wish we still had Rafer, but I believe Aaron will do well. Besides, I have no choice now.
