    Well, you got your 15 rebounds, "Happy?"

    "Tonight, certainly our paint points were probably very low," Jon Barry said. "We got nothing to the basket. We became a jump-shooting team, which we're not. We like to be a team that goes inside and then out, but we really had no post game to speak of. We just continue to struggle with our offense. Defensively we were pretty good for most of the game. But Yao's presence is obviously something that we missed."

    Dikembe Mutombo started in place of Yao and tied his season high with 15 rebounds, but took only two shots and scored two points. . . .

    Last time I checked, Yao and Mutombo were not the same person.

    That was one of the best "Ralph Sampson" imitations out of Yao yet! :cool:

    Doesn't it look like Yao has at least 20 inches of verticle in that dunk?
