    I thought the fans get a Big Mac if Rockets win and hold opponents to 80 OR fewer points?

    I'll take a win over a 100 Pts + game and a loss any night!

    Big Test comes Wednesday!? Right? What do you guys think?

    We slow Nash and Q-rich down, then Yao will compete against Amare.....we should be okay, they have to deal with T-mac also.......the two trades will be put on test also........what are your gus comments?

    Amare it going to have some problems with Yao. Its not everyday Amare is facing a 7'6" center. With the tempo we play, I think we can somewhat keep their points to a minimum, sorta like S.A did. Not as good as they did, but somewhat. Its gonna be a good game. We are not slouchers anymore. I feel we will compete. I like our attitude on the court. Its starting to be cool to watch them again.

    Winning has a way of bringing out some nitpicking threads. That being said, some fans could of used a Big Mac.

    Thanks for bringing this up.

    We played an inspiring game...raising hopes for the rest of the season...and us fans boo the last (classy) possession because they don't get a Big Mac.

    :eek:

    Van Gundy definitely does seem to be a bit of a joykill but he did the right thing. I think every other coach in the NBA would have done the same thing. Sucks for those that wanted a big mac for free, but it was the right thing to do.

    The fans that were booing at the game last night should probably be given a slim fast bar instead of a free big mac. Take your fat ass to Mickey D's and spend the .99 cents.

    To be honest, any other coach and I would not have started this thread. I hate Van Gundy so much, that I get really upset at anything he does to burst our bubble. Sometimes it takes just the slightest thing to piss people off after enduring B.S. for so long. In this case, taking away an opportunity for Big Mac's was the straw that broke the Camel's back.

    We're sitting here talking about Big Macs. Not a 19 point victory. Not a 19 point victory. Not a 19 point victory. But a Big Mac. How silly is that? We're talking about Bic Macs.
