    Rockets win big. Francis goes off for 30. Yao goes off for 20. Everyone's happy and getting in line to buy playoff tickets. All Star Break takes place, Steve decides to stay a few more days in LA to take advantage of a "once in a lifetime" event, misses practice, coach gets hot and suspends him. We lose 4 in a row and everyones ready to get rid of Steve. Of course, that'd never happen would it.

    I am pretty sure Francis would not make one single mistake in this game. I just hope his teammates, his coach, the ref, the media people, and the opposing team don't do anything to screw him up. I am so tired of them not doing their jobs right and make Francis looks bad.

    Is Kobe playing? Is the incredible Flop playing? If neither of these players are playing I think we can pull out a win. Yao Ming has to step up as well as our other players. We have to be able to hit long range and mid range jumpers.

    Like I said b4 the Spurs game, Francis will get into a pi$$ing contest with Parker, Kobe, or whoever he's suppose to Guard and forget there are 4 other people on the court.
    Trade this dude NOW. 4 years of Dribble diareaha (sp) and low percentage 'Circus' shots with 2 seconds on the clock has made me very discouraged. I'm tired of his excuses. He hasn't convinced me he's a 'Team' player under Coach van Gurdy. Yea I'm Mad, does it show?

    Ugh, I finally pulled myself back to the CC.net GARM. I stayed out all night last night right after the loss, and all day today. Last night's loss was such a heart breaker. Kind of like what the Rockets did to the Bulls. Allowed them to come back, but then WAM the door slams shut. :(

    I really felt like we were going to win, everything was going our way last night...until Gino did the same play 2 times in a row...



    Here's to a win on Wednesday, another National TV coverage game....I think.

    The lakers are not doing very well as of lately, lets hope they lose.

    I put my money on that. I wouldnt be surprised if Francis puts up career numbers against the Lakers just to shut the media and some of these rockets fans up!! We have a great team! There is nothing worng with Francis..stop ctiticizing him...keep him for the better of the team. We have one of the best if not the best defense in the NBA....and when we hit shots..we are unstoppable!! Example: Rockets vs. T-Wolves, Jan 10th.

    Lakers are coming off back to back games against the Heat. They then have to travel over to Houston overnight to play for the next match. Judging from the score it looked like the Heat didn't force the Lakers to waste much energy. It'd of been nice if they could of made Shaq exhausted for the game tomorrow night against the Rockets. Kobe's stitches were removed last I heard but I don't know if he'll be playing tomorrow either. Whatever the case may be, it should be an interesting game that hopefully the Rockets will win.

    Against the Heat, Shaq played 33 minutes. Payton played 41 minutes. Pick and roll the Lakers to death with Yao setting picks against Payton. Yao has got his outside shot back.

    Will this be on 51? If I remember right, last time we were on ESPN 51 still carried the game, unlike when we are on TNT.
