    After the Phoenix game, seeing Amare jumping up and down about a foul being called on him, just made me think of how much of a whiner he can be. The replay showed that he obviously pulled Yao to get around him, but he jumps into hysterics at the ref anyway.

    Someone should make a video. :D

    Someone should make one that shows Yao falling on his ass over and over and over.

    I mean, the dude must be falling down more than any other player this season, despite his size and strength. 90% of those falls have to be because of something the opposing player has done.

    The way he gets referied sucks.

    I'm not commenting on the way he's refereed, but most of those falls are due to the fact that he is 7 foot 6 and has a high center of gravity and is somewhat slow afoot.

    Yao's a lot more likely to go down when he gets bumped by Eduardo Najera than Clarence Wetherspoon is to do the same; It's a mater of simple physics despite the fact that Yao outweighs Spoon by 30-40 lbs.

    Hell, just go through all the Rockets games from 1999-2004 and you could fill up a couple of DVDs...

    I added that referree part so I wouldn't be flamed by YOFs. ;)

    I think it would be a bit entertaining to see how often he is on his ass.
