    What a quarter. We got 33 points. That was our output for the half in the prior few games. :)

    Must be close. I like the ball movement and pick & rolls, in particular. :)

    Sweet Lord please I hope we keep this up. When JJ is knocking down his shots and we run our offense through Yao whether it be the high pick n' roll or low post passes into him, our offense flows so much more smoothly.

    It's too early, but I think Yao may have gotten a highlight on ESPN with that shake and fadeaway he had for a bucket.

    Yes. That was the same observation I made earlier. Yao got it on fire and the rest of the troop follow through. The whole team has been moving their feet even without the ball. :)

    Jim Jackson is really feeling it Tonight.

    Cato almost hit the reverse alley oop.

    What's funny is how the Rox will react when the dragon (Shaq, Kobe) are awakened.

    I keep rubbing my eyes because I cannot believe how well our guys are strokin' it tonight.

    The offense looks totally different. What's up? It's just not that the Rockets are hitting shots. It's the way the whole team is working together on offense. Screw the low post.

    It's strange how the Rockets always bring good competition to LA.

    We have to stop settling for the 3. It is not going to fall through for us all night. We need to set up an offense again....But I guess currently we can't because Moochie is running the point.

    Yao and Steve need to come back to the game.

    Pike's missed layup might be the basket that decides the game outcome eventually.

    Can Piatkowski dunk? I cringe every time he lays it up. I bet Boki woulda slammed it home. :(
