We can win this game but we need to play well, this is a team that cannot win anything. We need to take adventage of that. They cannot shoot like that. Really.

1. Seattle falls into a shooting slump. Right now they're shooting 60%; that's unacceptable.

2. We control the glass. Seattle has outrebounded us 20-14 thus far.

3. We make our FTs. Seattle is 11-14 from the line, and we are a poor 6-11.

4. adelman letting yao go to the low post and giving him the ball to score

Yao has taken all of his shots from the low post so far.

I wanted to rip Adelman's head off when I saw Yao continually going to the high post.

My sig stays.

Seattle fan here, don't worry we will come back to Earth.

Nice to see Durant taking the mid range J instead of the 3 ball.

We've had Yao in the high post a little too much I agree, but in this game he's made some nice passes to cutters. You're right though; it's time for Yao to go to work on the low block. The Sonics aren't elite, and they don't really know what it means to win, so we better come out and knock them in the chin so we can take this one decisively.

They rebound every ball, they get every call. ANother block...

According to the Yahoo box score, it's been 2 minutes in and Yao hasn't even taken a shot yet. Wonderful.

ADELMAN YOU F*CKING MORON GET YAO IN THE F*CKING LOW POST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

McTracy · Post #135 » by **McTracy** » Thu Jan 24, 2008 4:30 am

No rebounds...

Post #136 » by **TMACFORMVP** » Thu Jan 24, 2008 4:31 am

Inability to rebound, inability to execute and we expect to win?? hahahaha

battier!!!!

Well so far the Rockets have decided to do the exact opposite of everything I said we need to do to win. Yao missed the technical FT, Seattle's scored from offensive rebounds, and the Sonics can still shoot.

Bonzi is pathetic, he had Yao wide open underneath and takes a three.

Another defensive breakdown.

Can we please get a stop?
