    There is a kicked ball in most every game. A player may stick his foot out in reaction to a pass. If he kicks it, it's a violation and the shot clock is reset. This is no big deal whatsoever.

    Look at that. It's much better if we pass the ball. :)

    Great! We are back on top. Now, we can credit Francis for the past few minutes. He made the pass; and it opened up for his own shot. He had to realize that what it took to win. :)

    Rox only up by 3. Why do they keep on shooting 3s?

    1:54 HOU Steve Francis missed 24 ft Three Point Jumper.
    2:15 HOU Yao Ming Offensive Rebound.
    2:17 HOU Jim Jackson missed 25 ft Three Point Jumper.

    :confused:

    I wouldn't call 6 rebounds in a game cleaning up on the boards. He's gotten the boards in the past 2 minutes though, if that's what you meant.

    Big deal. With such ugly plays, the Rox won't go anywhere.

    You can add one more, hopefully that's the last, missed one 21-footer from Francis. Plus a shooting foul. Oh mine. :(

    Good game.

    I think we are a good team...we do good against teams even less organized and disciplined than us.

    I still want us to be more emotional and intense and hustling and energetic and desirrring.

    I think we are a good team...probably the 6th best team in the WEst.

    Francis...he has skills still..he has the talent and ability..did you see when he just lost Kevin Ollie..he can play...I love it when he runs around fast and goes crazy and stays on his man.

    I think we should keep Cato always at the basket or at a location that's most difficult for his guy to go guard Yao...

    WHERE IS PATRICK EWING?

    I will use the word hope/wish instead of "think". Unfortunately, we ARE currently NOT the 6th best team in the West. :rolleyes:

    I think Patrick Ewing should be fired. Looks what he did to Kwane Brown... he got the job in rockets is all because of his relation with JVG. I dont think Yao respects Ewing cos Yao did mention everytime he plays one on one with Ewing Yao sure win... Will u respect someone u kick his ass everytime??? I think we need Hakeem or Moses Malone to tougher Yao ass... Ewing just cant do his job right...:(

    That is the whole idea for Francis. The next day, it will be published as Francis leading Houston to win; and he will be voted to all-star. Who cares he is shooting below 40% for the season and less than 1/3 in the last few games. :(

    I am not defending Ewing, but if we can find a retired 40-year-old who can kick Yao's ass, what do we need Yao for?
