China Game - 4:45 a.m. - NBC Olympic Basketball Channel

oh ok... and wheres that other guy talkin bout Yi takin shots away from yao... he obviously didnt watch the tourney cuz Yi only takes 4-7 shots a game... GRRR seriously the CNT coach cant coach... i hope frank puts Yi in a position to succeed

 

No,no,no. How could you miss that?

In the first quarter Yi took the shots and rebounded because Yao was swarmed. The score was tied with a minute to go in the first quarter because Yi was making shots.

THEN, for no reason, near the end of 1st qtr the coach benched Yi. In the second quarter Lit went up 11. That's what I'm talking about.

You've got to blame Yao for not passing out to Yi more. You also have to blame the coach for playing politics for Yao, and because of that, taking Yi out. Yao was supposed to be the star, not Yi. That's what happened.

Yao needed to sacrifice his points and let Yi play. The coach needed to let Yi play until he fouled out. Yao didn't do that. The coach didn't do that. China would've lost anyway, but they blew China's ONLY chance to stay close.

 

ahhh yes... yao fkin sucks and he too soft... lith just bodied him... Yi actually played like a man...and the coach sucks!
