2 Highlight Reels in a Week
It was another highlight reel for Yao Ming... the 2nd in a week's time. What else would we expect when he faces the Knicks twice? The Knicks should put Eddy Curry on him, but we all know how ineffective Curry is against Yao. Seriously, it's just posterization practice. So instead, they put David Lee on him. Lee did just as well as Curry despite the height disadvantage. Yao just shot over him all the time and it didn't matter if Lee was in front or behind. It was easy to get the ball to the 7'6" giant. Yao finished with 36 points & 11 rebounds. So Curry ended up guarding Luis Scola. Naturally, the Rockets looked to Scola to score and he put up a solid 19 on the Knick's big man. So I don't know if that strategy worked. Lee on Yao made no difference. The effort was there, but the height wasn't. So Yao had a big game as always. But Curry on Scola opened up a good 2nd scoring option. Anyway, one of my teams avenged the other. I'll take that!
