    The Rockets really held their own in the fourth today. We pretty much beat a good team today. We, the young, inexperienced Houston Rockets. We did everything that we needed to win. We double teamed Vince Carta in Crunch Time. We made someone else beat us. The first shot that Oak made was with Cato running at him, and the second shot was just crazy! The second shot was a few feet out of Oak's range <strong>still with</strong> Cato running at him and he still made the shot! It's as Steve Francis said, "I'd live with that shot anyday."

    Remember, there was a <strong>really crappy</strong> goal tending foul called on Cato during the final few minutes. To add insult to injury, Carta was fouled on the play and he made the free throw. So it was a 3 point play, that should have been, at the most, a regular 2 point play for the Raptors. And we lost the game by 1!!!! So that play, in essence, cost us the game.

    Well, it's as Clutch said, "The Rockets can play with anybody, they just can't beat anybody." DAMN, that statement just sums up the entire season for the Rockets.

    The Rockets showed some real Clutchness tonight. I love watching this team grow.

    And how about that three from Bryce Drew? True, it was too little too late but it was our final hope tonight and he stepped up and hit it. I bashed this guy way too much, and that crow is tasting delicious!
