I'm not saying Yao is not talented or not better than Bradley. People here keep bragging about his blocks, and i'm saying - Stop it. Anyone his height should and will get blocks. A 6 foot guy with 4 blocks is impressive. 7 foot 6 is expected. If all you can mention in this game is blocks, then there's nothin to brag about.

Best excuse ever!

From now on, for any guy who is taller than 7 foot, a block shouldn't be counted into his stat. And for guys who is shorter than 7 foot, he can't be accounted for any assist or steal.

And if any point guard or shooting guard made a 3 point shot, it should be counted as 2 points. For any center or forward, score under basket is counted as 1 point.

I guess that will make the game more interesting!

You're the only one saying anything about changing the rules. I have a pretty good memory (plus I can use a scroll button) and I don't see anything in my posts about taking blocks away. I did say that it's not particularly impressive when a guy that towers over the competition can block shots. I gave an example that anyone who's very tall will get a lot of blocks. If I go on the playground and everyone's at least 6 inches shorter than me, i'll get a huge amount of blocks. How does being a point guard make you a better 3 point shooter anyway? Why would being short give you an advantage for assists? I don't get your analogies.

It is a great game. All this talk of the centers makes us ignore the fact that steve francis is the impact player for his team.

5 rebounds, 8 assists, 8-9 from the line, 5-7 from 3pt line, 33 points

Great game. Francis is playing very well and Kobe looks like he may get triple double.

Yao Ming is without a doubt holding his own.

remarkably the refs screw the fsck up near the end of the game possibly giving the lakers a 3 pt lead. i think i'm gonna stop watching basketball again. at least in the NFL it would have been reviewed.
