Next time we play a piece of garbage team Yao needs to be ultra aggressive block everything into the stands and bang the defender in the post and when he fouls out in the first quarter the league will have to address the situation.
does anyone have the full game broadcast online yet? missed the game, live in htown and could not find the dang thing anywhere - supposedly it was on FOX but my tivo didnt record it. had to go to a christmas party instead... lame... please, video, please
Well I am saying I like violence. But in this context (aka Yao situation), I'd like to see some NBA refs to be treated with serious punches, though wishful thinking.
You can accuse Yao of some things to ve sure, but not bringing his best effort is not one of them. The guy is a pros pro and does his best to bring it every night. I just don't buy that Yao is not busting his a@@ every night. he may not be on his game but the effort is there. That's what I like about him most.
NBA...where corruptions happens. After what happened recently with officiating scam and gambling it's not surprising anymore. It's how NBA is structure. There's no governing boards to review refs performance; there is double standards depends on players status...ect. So refs call it however they want. I mean watching NFL is so much different that at least you know you're protected by having rights to challenge. Watching NBA is like playing dice ...you're lucky if you end up with a honest ref vs. a crook.
remembered that when in yao's rookie season ,he could get about 10 calls a game,but strange enough that when he became more experienced the next ,he got less calls.When he went into his sixth year he even got no calls some game.I was wise enough to know that the calls for Yao wouldnt continue to be just and fair as early as 4 years ago,just imagine how can the game continue if Yao can get 30 points only through the FTs when the refs make calls according to the rule? So the association thought out such a "clever" method... I can see such changes,and Ill say if this situation wont change,Yao'll probably go back to Shanghai after this contract,where he can get the just treatment.And honestly,Chinese dont think America is good enough to be dominant in Basketball (or every else field, although its really the best of world now),Yao can help CBA's market as well,and he now cant really impove anyway despite the bad refs change their ways.Just remember,US is the best,but not the only option.Distinguish the defference between Best and Dominent....
Im serious,and I has read some reports backing this from the Chinese media.It was said by quite a lot medias now,and even some SKorean medias( )which I didnt expected.

OMG this has so much Photoshop potential! Someone change that towel to JVG's head. Or Adelman's head for that matter, or David Stern.
After reading Yao's interview excerpt after the game, he said... He admitted the last foul is a callable/non-callable one..but he was really upset by the last 5 calls.. he thought all those were bad call and were just so unfair to him...especially the 5th call on him by Ron Artest...
