there was a point in the game where Ron started to shoot us out of it. I think it was at the end of 3rd, he had like 13 shots at halftime, next closest was Yao with 8, hopefully he's getting it under control.

 

Yao has the ability of killing Gasol just like killling Howard today. But Adelman dont let Yao do it when vs Lakers.

 

sure would like to play these guys in the finals.

 

I'll tell it like it is: I NEVER liked Rafer as a Houston Rocket. He CAN"T SHOOT! Why are so many GM's, coaches, blind to that obvious fact? Beats me. Clyde calls him an upper echelon player (baloney), players sing his praises, nonsense. He CAN'T SHOOT! So glad to see him on another team. I know that is cold, but that's the way it is.

Now to the game. I love Von Wafer. What would the Rockets do without him? Scola disappeared in the late stages of the game. Is he O.K.? Great to see Landry back. Good defense, decent offense. The Rockets are rolling along. All the games are important, so great win.

 

How old is Turkoglu? He look almost older than Motumbu.

 

Really? Man, i tried to show it was sarcasm without actually saying it, since apparently some didnt get it last game....knee-jerking is a tough business

 

The hug you saw was between Rashard Lewis and Yao. Dwight pouted himself off the court.

 

yes, as usual...

 

Great win!
Yao is good, Artest@$#%*!

 

I wonder if Artest thought it was too boring to blow out the Magic, that's why he was only 1-6 on free throws until making the last two. Along with 6-21 from the field, he was keeping the Magic in the game with his bad shooting. Me, I'd rather have a nice 15-20 point cushion late in the game.

 

big win! yao>howard im ready for the playoffs!

 

great win! nice to see carl back and deke making a cameo. but what the hell was up with svg fouling every play the last minute? shaq should call him out again that sore loser.

 

30 years old.

 

Artest went 6-21? Even McGrady would have shot 8-21. I'm nervous.

 

Anyone notices that when Howard plays Yao, he never has those high-flying ally-oops? I think it's mainly because those weak centers have to front him from time to time, which leads to such opportunities, while Yao always just stays behind and plays straight up with him.

 

Did Luis appear hurt to you?

 

Very glad to not only see Landry back but to see him back to his season averages already. 8 pts 5 rebs and 2 blocks.

 

Great win! I would have preferred less shooting by Artest, but a W is a W.

 

in an interview artest claimed to be the leader of this team. Maybe that's why he's forcing up so many ugly shots. Hopefully he doesn't pull this crap when it really counts in the playoffs.
