One of the reasons why the rockets lost to the lakers => Brooks For some reason, this guy refused to give the ball to yao until 4th quarter.(couldn't trust asian who knows?)Yao's FGA was like 1 at the end of 3rd quarter I believe. When I was watching the game, I was like "just pass the fukin ball to yao god damn it!!!" This PG seemed to obey Artest though. I mean, Artest is awesome but Yao is a great C. Despite his 7ft 6 height, his post up skill is deadly along with the jumper. He also got some strengh too. In my opinion, rockets should use Yao more often when they are in attack. Teammates don't seem to trust Yao much and the coach better do something about it if they want to beat LA. Brooks sucked as a PG.
The 26 minutes Yao was on the floor, the Lakers outscored the Rockets by 29 points. That means in the 22 minutes Yao was off the floor, the Rockets outscored the Lakers by 16 points. It just wasn't Yao's night. He struggled on both ends.
Yao has a big ol' bruise on his knee from his collison with Kobe in game 1 and he sprained his ankle last night. The Great Wall is slowly falling. I feel bad for him. He's trying his best, but chasing Gasol around is wearing him down.
