    I'm terrified right now. He's looking pretty bad in the big games lately.

    Doesn't matter--I wasn't comfortable with Rafer.

    Lowry should start, Brooks comes on as the sparkplug.

    No, his poor decision-making combined with his carelessly administered passes and lack of offensive construction leave a lot of opportunities for the opposing team to capitalize. Hopefully, he learns to play more efficiently, but with a miniscule length of time before the playoffs, it remains highly unlikely that he suddenly becomes an effective force for the playoffs.

    He needs to be benched for Lowry. At least Lowry can pass to Yao.

    He is a project. I hope he gets it in a year or two. To early to judge him now.

    The Rockets don't have a "year or two". I think a pass-first veteran PG just skyrocketed up the Rockets to-do-list.

    Kobe slaps other team's fans on regular basis. No need to feel bad.

    Yes we do. To me get past the first round only is just a moral consolation, meaningless, and we certainly are not at Championship level.

    Once we can do something about Tmac's contract, either by trade or FA, we should be able to bring up top flight players with fresh legs.

    AD's experiment with AB has failed. Miserably!

    Now everybody realizes it. Rafer brings stability to this team with more defense.

    Marc Jackson is surprised that it was Hayes on the floor instead of Yao.

    What's the surprise? Adelman gave in already when he pulled Yao out.
