Yao on flopping and holding back???? 

Post#1 » by smapor » Thu Mar 5, 2009 4:55 am

I know i posted this in teh game thread but i thought it deserved its on thread.

Anytime someone goes to the ground or even sits on the ground to take a rest, its an Offensive foul on me


Priceless.


I wanted to add to this post. Can anyone confirm if Yao said he had to hold back in the low post because of his fear of using his full strength? Can it explain why when he is Mad, he plays a lot more aggresive because he can't control his emotions and just uses his strenght?

If that is true, Yao needs to fking man up and play with all his strength, back those players down and just get 5 offensive fouls a game.

It's about friggin time. Him and Shaq and Dwight have to stand together against this nonsense. The big men are getting treated completely unfairly. Yao will get the most attention since he never speaks up about it.

I want the big guy to use his elbows.. back those fools down... and foul out if he has to Id rather see him foul out then shoot jumpers...

just fall ontop of or just body slam the next loser who flops...


sick of it...

makes me feel like a loser... because the Ref's actually think we are dumb enough to believe it...

It's completely true though. I cannot count the number of times players would just fall down or jerk their heads back and get calls.
