    If we moved without the ball more it would create more open shots and more assists for our guards and our Yao. I know all we are is penetration, but still, if one or two of our guys are doing their job out there, atleast the other 2 or 3 players can be doing something besides what we are doing at home (watching! :D )

    when francis passes the ball to yao, the outside guys should cut or move and find an open spot instead of standing around. yao will make the right decision and find the open man.

    You're right. More ball movement, yeah. but also there needs to be more movement without the ball so it'll be easier to find the open man.

    Instead of always clearing out or running down the baseline, I'd like it if Steve or Cuttino would drop it down to Yao, and then camp out at the three point line. Once the double team comes, Yao passes it back out for the open three. Classic rocketball.
