I thought that simply because the Rockets had won 3 in a row it just meant that the Rockets could only beat the bench players of the other teams. Since it is preseason people are playing their bench a lot to see what the new additions can do. But to beat the Trail Blazers without Mo Taylor and Shandon Anderson that is tremendous. The big play of Carlos Rogers was one thing, but another is that apparently no one can stop Cuttino Mobley or Steve Francis (except the officials). The Rockets now, I think are playoff bound for sure if they can keep up the good work. ------------------ -Junkyard Dog "Maybe we need an enema" - Othella Harrington (former pf for the Rockets) www.JunkyardDog.web.com
