This is in deed the 'This team needs a finisher (part 3)', but I thought you must be bored. This game showed you how important a second go-to guy is. Rockets doesn't have it. So when Yao is shutdown, the team is shutdown. Derrick Rose took over the game in the 4th, because he is a surprise to the Rockets. If he is the main guy in the beginning, he won't get the chance. Even King Lebron couldn't do it. Rockets are another go-to guy away from the true contender. Since the trade deadline is passed. Now it's Rick Adelman's job to accomplish it. Don't let the same error repeat again and again and again. My suggestions here, 1. Make Mutombo ready. He can change things, if he is there today. 2. Assign Wafer to be the go-to guy, encourage him and let the team understands it. He is the only guy can create shots. He may or may not do it, but who else? 3. Luis and Ron do P&R with Wafer and prepare the cuts. Shane free himself for the three. 4. When Yao is fronted, fight for board instead of asking the ball. Please discuss,
LOL at Wafer being the Go-to-guy. It's real simple what happened, Artest is our second best player. He had a 'Me' moment, let him understand DURING the season that he can't win the game by himself. It was good he missed those shots, if he made them he would have been doing those shots every 4th qtr clutch situation. Yao is our go-to-guy...we just gotta find a way to get the ball to him NO MATTER WHAT.
NO MATTER WHAT? Even lose the game? I hope Adelman would not be as dumb as you. Artest is too slow to penetrate.
Fiction: Give the ball to Yao, no matter what! He is the only go-to guy in the Team. Fact: How many loses can wake you up? Fiction: No ISO, It's team ball. Fact: Derrick Rose didn't just single handed beat you? Fiction: They double Yao, someone must be open. Fact: Who was open? They were fronting Yao, not doubling. The correct answer is: When Derrick Rose is killing us, someone should give him an answer. Do the same thing to the bulls as what they did to you.
. . . everytime the person creating it thinks they sssoooo d*mn Orignial and Clever like sportscasters Rocket River In before the
#1 was funny but #2 was even funnier. Wafer as a go to guy. LOL wow. You want someone to be a go-2-guy who doesn't pass the ball when he is attacking the basket. IDK why everyone is treating Wafer like he is God or something. Von Wafer is overrated. Its crazy how a guy can have one good month and people are in love and think he is the answer. Hmmm I'm getting flashbacks here. OOOOH YEAH we had that in a person name Rafer Alston!! We need to learn from experience. Rafer great one month then was back to his old self. Von Wafer is horrible. There is a reason why he was going from one team to the next.
