    someone had "the look" in the second half...

    #1 was 8-11 in the last 24 minutes...


    nice layup, Derek!

    we need re-group on the rebounding, they beat us badly.. almost 20 more shots for them, we are lucky to get this one,

    Nice win. Now can we tell our guards to go over the pick and roll instead of behind it.

    Ha ha ha, I'm glad that Deron Williams didn't get a triple double. For some reason he annoys the hell out of me.

    Battier's first NBA playoff win, I think

    This win must feel great for everyone, esp. T-mac since he stepped it up

    I am very satisfied. It was a great sign that TMac didn't let the first half get in his head. Yao should be able to put up some huge numbers in this series. I don't see this series going past 5 or 6 games.

    We were an atrocious 9-27 from three, yet we pull away in the 4th. We are scary good. We still haven't even seen the Rockets at their best. Our constant - defense, is what crumbled them.

    We can't expect Boozer and Okur to shoot a combined 6-31 in every game of the series.

    Tmac and Yao won it for us. Our role players made it close.

    ummm 75 points? it's safe to say that if the rockets give up 75 points in every game this series they will win pretty easily. can't ask for much better then that.

    I missed the game, but from what I've seen from scoreboard and TV, this was one of the most beautiful games the Rockets played this season.

    26-11 run in the 3rd. A dominant Yao. Mac turning it on when it mattered. A Rockets defense party, holding Boozer and Memo to TERRIBLE games. The whole game was somewhat spoiled by Fisher's back-to-back threes, but I still say that it was one of the most beautiful Rockets games this year, one that completly represented what I think the Rockets as a team are and what I hope the Rockets continue to do for the whole series.

    Biggest margin of victory today as well, which is significant because Detroit played lameduck Orlando today and we still ended up with a better margin of victory.

    GO ROCKETS GO.
