    It's not about what you get in return for Francis. Heck getting back a shiny new basketball would be a steal! It's about getting rid of a cancer holding back the REAL franchise player out of jealously.

    Yao sucks, but I have had enough of JVG offense. This is pathetic!

    Rudy might not be a great defensive coach, the our offense last year was certainly much better than the crap we have this year.

    No way any team will take on his max contract. The Rockets are stuck with Francis. That's too bad.

    I don't think Yao is happy playing with Van Gundy as the coach, and it's obvious this team sucks without him playing well.

    Rudy T is laughing his ass off looking at the sad faces of all the Rocket players playing for Van Gundy.

    Well, guess what genius, tonight, the "cancer holding back the REAL franchise player " happens to be named Mehmet Okur, a Turkish 'big' man who gives up roughly 6 inches and 60 pounds to Yao, and is, oh, maybe 523rd best defensive player in the league

    Apparently, he must have brought his A game, funny how soft, slow, defensively challenged European Centers tend to do that against us with frightening regularity... as the "Real franchise player" is getting handled pretty easily.

    Wow, Okur really is killing us. If you took away all his points, the Pistons would still be up by double-digits.

    I predict the Mavs or GS tonight will score more in one half than the Rockets do in 3 quarters.

    Why are the starters still playing? Let them rest for tommorrow. They need to be fresh.

    Mehmet Okur is a very good individual defensive player. He's no scrub or softie. He'll bang.

    Defensively, it's pretty clear from the post that's what I said.
