    That has nothing to do with the score, did you see Posey and Griff jack up all those stupid 3's..Yao mad some good passes and scored a couple of baskets...

    heres why this team is frustrating: near the end of the first quarter Yao was heating up, getting good position, good shots, and a few more makes and he was about to get a double team,
    which would of really open the offense up, but Rudy or Francis decides that was enough, and they go away from Yao down low and bring him out top and have like three disorganized, wasted, possessions in a row. man i guess I just dont "get it"

    Kobe might be a ballhog BUT HE HAS 3 CHAMPIONSHIPS under his belt. And he produce and plays hard evry single game CONSISTENTLY.

    Francis and Mobley shows off and ballhogs but they have done anything yet. They could not even get their team into the playoff.

    The difference between Francis and Kobe is Kobe is consistent and a much more smrt player.

    It is plain and simple, we were not playing like a team in the first quarter. Hopefully we will get better;)

    Steve Francis took the most shots in the quarter and went 1/7 so I would expect these Rockets to be down in the first to anyone. Even if we go through Ming, the other offensive possessions were these crazy dribble into five guys, pray for a shot/pass/foul type.

    With u there DRose. Seems like there will be folks out there constantly looking for something to blame Stevie for. Stevie is not ball hogging.

    Van Gundy: its time to double team Kobe, and make somebody else beat you.

    man i want the five best players out there as much as possible during this game, so I hope Rudy doesnt sit Yao for the usual 7 minutes, dont want Yao getting cold on the bench.
