    rafer has been excellent since he came back. he looks confident out there and his shot has finally joined him here in houston. this is the guy that we traded for and now that he's got some games under him i'm definitely glad we made the trade.

    Small guy Curry overpowers the big guy Yao, Yao spins arounds small guy Curry, unexpected sequence.

    I think we play with much more confidence with both Yao and T-Mac back in the line-up...Now if we can just help Tracy find his shot, we'd be awesome...A good win overall...

    Knicks are 0-9 without Marbury. Sound familiar?

    A thought on Eddy Curry....

    Man, does anyone watch this guy and realize what a waste of talent he is? I have never seen a guy this big and this strong (basically a guy with a Shaq body) who can move very well do so little with what he has. He reminds me so much of Stro: tons of natural talent but no heart and no work ethic...this kid could be the next Shaq if he ever dedicates himself wholly to the game of basketball, learning, getting better, and dominating.

    Yah, but the thing is they still stink with him, so not much downside there. ;)

    Given his weight of 211 pounds, no way he can become the next Shaq. He may be a mini-Shaq, but with better FT.

    I had the same thoughts. He was just moving Yao and Dikembe deep into the paint, getting his position with no problems at all. He is really big and strong, much more than I thought. He's only 22, but he could be so much more.

    Wasn't his nickname "Baby Shaq" in high school?

    He was born in Dec 2002. He is now 23, 2 years younger than Yao.

    That Skip move was spectacular. I hope we see more stuff like it ... add some street flair to the rockets offense. :)
