don't forget the refs though, if they wnat to stop yao, that can easily be done, just swallow the whistle and yao will be raped...
+1. With the luck we're having playing AB this much will result in him getting an injury. Although he already got injured this year, so maybe the injury Gods have already been appeased by Ab's sacrifice On the other hand extended minutes are good for Ab's development; he'll get his rest once Rafer comes back
Eh... Luther is just horrible at running the offense. I have no problems with him being in the game and Tmac playing point forward. That is... if he ever gets his shooting touch back.
The way I see it,I suppose Luther 'Headless' Head's shooting touch is long gone cept his eruption game against Spurs. Turnovers are his baby.
I'm completely convinced Yao can average about 30ppg for the rest of the year if the Rockets can get him the ball. We should be 2nd in the West now when it comes to standing and not anywhere near playing our best ball. Exciting stuff.
it won't be this easy for yao to get position once we start playing better teams. just hope the ball movement continues so yao can get easy layups still. he's been creating less of his own shots and that always conserves his energy.
a win is a win.. salmons almost gave me a heart attack. yao was awesome..t-mac finished it.. the end WIN!!!
Yao was excellent, no one on the kings frontline to match him defensively. It all goes through Yao, that is the way to do it, and Mcgrady was impressive with his 8 assists and no turnovers and his attacking mode even though his jumpshot wasn't on. Scola and Landry played with a lot of energy and hustle and Artest increased his defensive intensity particularly in the 2nd Half.
Simply because he just come back from a injury to his foot. Nobody would be 100%sure and make a lot of contact. It is understandable that Yao wanted to avoid body contact. As he get more confident with his body, he is using his body now.
glad to see Scola play well, he is a smart player but unfortunately limited by his atheltic ability Head is lost in the rotation, why Morey can not trade him AB is getting better, keep it up
it was a terrible game till about 5 minutes left in the second quarter... from that point we played pretty well on both sides of the ball and it has nothing to do with the opponent.
great game by yao... I want to see him just as aggressive as he was a few years ago before his injury. I remember the amazing quotes from the Dallas mavericks... they had no answer for him. Anyone remember which game I'm talking about? (yes it's really vague)
why hasnt adelman tried tmac at the point guard luther head is not a point guard, mcgrady is a point forward .jvg would have tried that combination adelman hasnt played wafer in 2 games yet we continue to see luther pushin it up the court. we have to see the battier mcgrady artest combination in the backcourt at some time. its ok to have luther on the court getting some burn just keep him off the ball.I think at the end of the day we cant win a championship with adelman he doesnt know how to coach this particular group of talent.
Playing down to the level of the competition is a very, very bad habit that will surely limit the success of this team. These are teams that should be put away early, not go down to the last minutes and wear out your starters. Adelman and Bullard said the same thing. I don't get it, why would they continue to do this?
