Lowry was the player of the sub... I will definitely vote for Yao's versatile presence for this game...
bullsh!t, not the way it's (not) called in the NBA. Find me one Top-10 perimeter player who doesn't get away with it.
Von Wafer can not turn into Luter Head if we are to advance in the playoffs. At this point , I dont care about the regular season . I want the postseason to start asap.
you know he just needs to do it once or twice and it won't even look obvious since Yao falls down alot anyway. But damm he's too nice of a player to ever send a message like that.
How many of those FTs are against Yao? I'm telling you man, watch Pau Gasol and then watch Yao. They let Pau do whatever he wants when he's posting up and the second...the very second a guy lays two arms on him they call a foul. I remember it, one time the guy puts his second arm on him and then *Whistle* The first thing I thought was...Why does Yao hardly ever get that call? I don't know, maybe Yao needs to grow long hair and a Euro beard and learn to flop. We need to send Yao to acting school since apparantly, playing good defense in the NBA nowadays is acting.
Its good though that Wafer experienced this, maybe will will be better prepared if the Rox play at Utah in the playoffs

yep - boozer really perfected that little shove on the back to be just enough to throw a guy off balance or him to get the rebound and not get called.
Wafer is probably worse than Luther Head. Even tho Head couldn't dribble, when he did get the ball past half court he at least tried to get the team into its offensive sets. Wafer thinks about Wafer first, second, and last. The Rockets are an afterthought to his stat-padding.
I don't care who gets away with it, he cups the ball in his hand for a second then continues his dribble, it is annoying as hades. And it is a carry. DD
If you've watched the game, I would never say the big fella is done mentally judging by effort and altitude he was putting in 4th. His eyes were burning with fury after foul out
On most occasions, Yao didn't foul but the refs blew the whistle once his opponents flopped and gave Yao an offensive foul. You sound you have better ideas, could you suggest how Yao should deal with that?
wrote to the league office, about flopping and how it takes it away from the game. and yao getting unfair calls
