Dampier isn't even signed yet. They'll have to trade/cut Jermaine Taylor first.

And yes, as far as I know Lowry will be good to go.

Let me be honest here.. Yao will be rusty as heck out there! Maybe not, as he's a superstar.. but still. Let's see if he's back to form.

I watched a bit of that Nuggets/Hornets game

I'd run most, if not all the offense through Scola. There's no way Shelden Williams can guard him.
Maybe it's just his big head, I don't know, but the guy looks so confused out there.
You can see he's working hard and giving his best, but he's simply isn't very good. No real defensive awareness, doesn't really box out, sets a lot of moving screens (which of course never get called), just runs around on offense setting random screens. He's also very slow in transition and his conditioning seems questionable.

He does however crash the boards any time he gets a chance, so you'll have to box him out.

It was the the '99-'00 season when the Rockets started 0-5

I missed it

Yao made three baskets so far. Maybe they will limit his minutes, but give him the ball a lot while he's on the floor.

Why are you going away from Yao on the Block? It's the only thing that is working.

Seem the defense tighten when Lowry is in.
