The Sporting News says don’t blame Yao for Rockets’ record

Here’s a good article that chronicles the problems with the Rockets this year, although Rafer Alston is improving before our eyes, and Aaron Brooks has emerged as a threat.

I like how Tracy McGrady said upon his return to the rotation, “Don’t change your game when I’m out there.” However, I find it interesting that he says that when he’s in the game, all the other guys have to do is knock down shots. Easier said than done. I don’t think we want an offense predicated on guys hitting jump shots. It’s clear how much more effective the offense is when EVERYONE attacks the basket rather than just relying on jump shots, which can come-and-go.
