    Having missed the game all I could do is read about it in the papers...Can anyone tell me what the biggest difference between the last couple of games and this one? I mean were players just on? Were they more energetic? I mean, is this something that could carry on to the next game? - or was it just a freak spark that won't be repeated? What was the biggest difference? And is it repeatable?

    The biggest difference in my opinion was the fans were fired up in the 2nd half and sparked the Rockets to victory. Of course, the Rockets still had to play but it makes a big difference when the crowd is noisy and cheering for you as opposed to sitting there not doing anything. The Rockets took it to heart and was energized by the crowd.

    It's what the Rockets needed. I'm glad the crowd was finally able to get into it. I hope they keep it up for future home games.

    To answer the question I only saw the 2nd half and it seemed the Rox turned it up and played a total team game. They spread the Knicks "D" and Franchise and Dream dismantled them. I suggest going to NBA.com and watching the Francis cross-over (it is under layups and 2:06 in the 3rd) in the highlight reels. It is worth the look. Defensively they shut NY down in the 3rd allowing only 12 points. I could really get used to watching them play like they did last nite.BTW I am glad that freak didn't last long how annoying.

    There is nothing more thrilling than using the RealGM trade checker for the 1 millionth time and finally having it tell you trade accepted!!!
