Originally posted by choujie: I guess that has more or less to do with our PFs not able to get offensive rebounds. Last year we had Cato , who...
That's one of the myth on this board in thinking that Yao can make up for the pf's rebounding deficiency by playing like Kelvin Cato. Yao plays...
Dear Fegwu, unfortunately you seem to have overestimated Yao's offensive rebounding if that''s the deficiency of the pfs you are referring to....
One good thing about the face up game is it saves Yao much energy from doing useless position acquisition. Too many times Yao battles his defender...
Too many restrictions on Yao now: 1. Being either a Shaq or Kevin Kato on offense. No face up game. 2. No consistent outside shooters when...
Jermaine Oneal sank several face up jumpers from ten feet out. I think at least 3 of them. That's some points for him and his team. Oneal has been...
To be the backup mascot of Clutch Bear, Clutch Ape.
Other than Yao not dominating consistently, Sura is a bad 3 point shooter, it's understandable if he doens't want to be embarassed by bricking...

Good move, meanwhile why not pull Dennis Rodman out of retirement to fill the need of a rebounding defensive 4?:p
I concur. Varejao is a nice up and coming player. Athletic dude with skills. Can score, rebound and block shots. Remember his tamahawk jam...
I wish Yao play a more balanced game. He's still a terrific low post player. That part of game shouldn't go to waste. However, on the nights when...
While most big men would kill for a mid to outside jumper that Yao once had, his outside shooting and passing are ruthlessly undervalued by the...
Aside from the motivation/developing players thing, JVG's mistake is that he wanted a savvy old team to play hard defense on low possessions, but...
Yeah, Charvo, Yao should be a great finisher around the basket being created by his teammates. However that means two things: 1. He wouldn't be...
I gotta confess. I'm losing faith in JVG/CD, fast.
Thanks for telling me that.
