    Major, major props to Yao tonight. This guy is working HARD. I'm getting tired just watching him.

    Yup, he's met his quota already. He'll get another couple turnovers in the second half.

    Rasho and Duncan constantly have both hands/elbows on Yao's back why that's not a foul?

    Because Cato is really an offensive liability. When we are trailing, he's not going to get a lot time.

    If this team could only shoot; the last time I checked, the object of the game is to put the ball through the net. :( They just missed three point blank shots.

    Steve's game is definitely uptempo. He's able to score much easier when defenses aren't set in the half-court.

    gotta love the spurs announcers telling us that francis never thinks a foul is on him and complains about everything. and this with tim duncan on their team. a guy up in the rarified air of kobe and gasol (the champ) when it comes to whining. maybe they're just so used to it they don't notice it.


    i have one recurring thought everytime i watch a rockets/spurs game: How the hell are we still hanging close?

    it seems like the spurs are just killing us all the time and yet invariably the games are always close. and why do the spurs, the worst free throw shooting team in the league by far, always seem to be on against us?

    If Rockets can have a better ast/to ratio, they might have a chance in 2nd half.

    Geeh...Why don't they give the game to SA? This is going to hurt the sport in the long run if it keeps happening this way.

    this is the reason that i said he should take over offense when yao is on the bench, but he needs to play strictly as a traditional pg when yao is on the court.

    When Yao is down in the low post and he passes the ball to Steve, it is an automatic miss. That's not efficient half-court offense. I said that Steve's game is uptempo because Yao's game is definitely not uptempo. Their games directly conflict.

    what i said is that sf needs to pass the ball back again after yao repositions. don't shoot when yao kick out first time.

    Oh, look the human turnover machine has checked in. It's too bad we don't have E Griff anymore, Cato isn't hitting anything.
