kaman is no match for yao but now kaman and camby might be an interesting front court to watch when Yao faces them, they're both long and more importantly decent unlike Diop and Dampier or Kurt Thomas and Oberto
i know germany and dirk will come back at the final moment, but we didn't let what we did against spain repeat, that's what i'm indeed impressed by
LMAO. Yao said after the game that Kaman didn't do as good as a job defending him as the other German center.
The German guy said it was BS how Kaman joined the team, he told me 'probably said he had a German Sheperd'. I almost spit my drink out when he said that (imagine that in a german accent).
Yeah, in the second half Yao definitly looked tired. But he still played pretty well till the end of the game. Great for him, great win for the team.
lets not forget the Team sucking it up the beggining of the season... Tmac being injured or shooting like his common..30% fg... to the point where Yao... had to play 40 minutes plus in quite a few regular season games... often having to come back in a game because the team was sucking it up... if anything we should have demanded Yao get some rest... then... before he got injured... Yao is getting back into playing shape... thats all that matters... if anything... those who are complaining... need to be the first ones to complain... if we see Yao or Tmac... playing too many minutes in the regular season... but....playoffs okay... fine...

i really expect the CNT to win a medal in the olympics that are held in China.however ,i 've found no reason why spainish and greece national team will allow the chinese to do so.besides, can you guarantee that the so-called dreamteam8 will be gonna win the gold ?even though teamUS beat spain by a huge point gap,but that doesn't mean the spainish was demolished because the majority of the gap was piled up during the trash time,and the spain know clearly that it's more diffciult to beat teamUS that Greece so they decided to retain some energy for the game againset Greece.By the way, spanish showed that they were far behind the teamUS who has never paid enough attention to its opponents in order to beat us in future games.they had got the permit to top8 and it doesn't matter to lose one game in the group.the spanish wish to make us think they are not as good as they were when they won the world's championship in japan but in fact they are even better.they europeans are really as sophisticated as the spurs who used their devices instead of power to win four ships within 9 years in nba.even though teamUS is powerful and dominative,they should still keep an eye on the european teams and argentina that contains manu,scola ,...more importantly ,teamwork which teamUS needs most.do not ever underestimate the international teams which will be a seemingly different team in the key games.
