    Another close one down the stretch.

    You gotta love Scola's play.

    Yeah only reason I didn't mention is because we beat them earlier this year when Artest played.

    But first game Boozer and Okur were missing.

    This game Boozer and Kirlenko.

    Hopefully the next two both teams are healthy so we can see how we matchup with them. I think we can take them in a series when healthy.

    Has anyone thought about Von and T-mac together in the lineup

    Von is one of our first players who can create his own shot and hit the three on a consistent basis. The open looks he gets from T-mac would be ridiculous

    One of the two would have to step up their defense big time.

    If Jeff Van Gundy was still coach, maybe. All Wafer has to do is keep chucking up shots and he'll be Adelman's new pet.

    He was so busy pushing Yao from behind that he forgot how to shoot :D

    Quality win to stay with the pack. The Indiana game will be just as tough though. It will be difficult for us to contain Granger and Dunleavy.


    I'll celebrate this win though.

    Scola defended him pretty well. Yao took care of Millsap in most of time.

    Im not sure Wafer is ready to handle the responsibility of beig a big time scorer plus guarding the other teams best two guard every night.

    Good win! But why do Scola, Alston, Brooks, Battier and Von Wafer all have more attempts than Yao?

    Brooks had 2 or 3 shots that were full court heaves at the end of quarters.

    Scola is clutch. Rafer played like a real PG. Wafer played like healthy TMac.

    We're 6-1 when Wafer starts? That's impressive. If Kobe never made that 3 on Battier we would be 7-0 with a 7 win streak, wow.

    The problem with AB now is that he's losing confidence and hesitates to shoot the ball even when he gets the opportunities. He used to attack the rim and shoot the ball assertively.

    Yao did get to the line 9 times, he had 2 assists and 3 turnovers. So approximatly he had the ball 17 times.

    He gets respect when he starts putting out consistent effort. Until then, he's TSlack.
