    SF3 is on pace to average 16 TOs a game in the playoff.

    That will be a great PO record for the league.

    And the greatest thing is that none of those TOs are under pressure D.

    Why not let Mark Jackson substitue SF, where is Van Gundy?

    SF is a joke so far, and I don't think he will improve anyway. No matter this Houston team whether wins or losses it is all due to their two guard combo, however, they will lead this team to nowhere. And JVG, who is just a mediocre coach.

    As bad as we've played, we're still only down by 2. Hopefully we got all the nerves out and are ready to play now.

    Perhaps Cato is still bothered by his injury?

    I make NO apologies for that first quarter. Not even the turnovers -- we made them going for bold plays against the best Lakers D I've seen all season.

    We are playing a great team and playing well. Win or lose, we're doing what we need to do to grow toward a championship, and I'm proud.

    Well the good news is the Lakers aren't whooping our asses. We're beating ourselves and as odd as it may sound I'm more content knowing we haven't played our best while still being right in the thick of things this game. This exactly the kind of tempo we want in the game.

    The only positive is that we are going out against the Lakers.

    However, there are so many problems that it's hard to get excited about the team. The majority of the players lack basic fundamentals and it's not even funny.

    Will, we play hard, but we don't play well. Too many unforced turnovers.

    Always same problem.

    Boki's in, surprised to see the deep bench with Van Gundy. 9 guys have played so far.

    Considering your politics, this sounds an awful lot like "America, love it or leave it."
