    No, only if they lost 3 of 4. If they lost 2 of 4 and we lost all 3, they would be #4.

    Because we can't play with 9 players and the only scorer for the bench is Luther. JVG has to active players like BigJake or maybe V-Span. But i don't understand Juwan. Look at his number. Again 0-4 FG...What happend to him?

    That is EXACTLY why I have been wanting JVG to play V-Span of JL3 all year at backup PG....

    You just have to know that team's will press Luther HARD in the playoffs and his handles are not good enough.....

    It is too late now though.....Tmac should play backup PG when push comes to shove.

    Honestly I don't care about the HA now, since either ways you need to have very healthy, robust heart to watch Rox play.
    this is really scary to nearly blow a 20 points lead to Portland with TMac & Yao on court.

    I know this is not the right place for this, but does anyone have any pictures of the opponent bench in toyota center or the baseline closest to the opponent bench. Im trying to sort out some seats.

    I'm sick and tired of these pathetic collapses. Giving up 36 points to a non-playoff team which isn't at full strength bodes ill for us regardless of how the Jazz are doing. I hope everyone is healthy for the next game. We can't afford any injuries.

    I absolutely dislike JVG's handling of all rookies, he is either unwilling, or incapable, of developing them.

    and I believe it is the same faulted 'win now' attitude that lead us to give up ROY for Battier.

    Battier is a baller, but ROY could be an impact player even this year, and imagine the years after...

    As usual, Yao Ming is always the very first Rockets to go out to practice his shots.

    playoff games are much more intense, we get lucky in the regular seasons a loooooooooot of times, but that luck could run out if our bench is only Head. And then, in the playoffs, once it broke, you come back and fix it----NEXT YEAR...

    False. The Rockets would have acquired Brandon Roy, but Portland jumped in front of them. If Portland didn't select Foye, who Minnesota wanted to trade for Roy, the Rockets would have and then immediately traded Foye and Head for Brandon Roy. The plan was to first acquire Roy, and if that fails then trade for Shane.

    I can see the argument for Snyder but jake shouldn't get minutes. yao's backup is dikembe. the rockets don't need to see jake and dikembe on the court at the same time, especially against utah. boozer and okur would run circles around them.
