    So Sura is not going to play?

    Never mind, just read an article that says he is expected to play...Man that guy is tough.

    We have to win tonight to be in the playoff picture.

    Actually we need to win at least 3 games in the next 5 tries to be competitive. I am having my fingers crossed.

    After two straight losses this actually becomes a big game if we are to make the playoffs. I think the Rockets will come out with alot of intensity. Just hope Yao doenst dissapear since it is a back to back game.

    Blount is a bad player. Yao should go off for about 95 points.

    Rockets win big.

    Yao continues his mean streak on the offensive glass but holds on to em this time... Paul Pierce... 20 pts on 25 shots.

    YAO is boarding pretty well right now. Made a couple shots but also people were missing him wide open flashing into the paint

    If Boston doesn't front Yao, he'll continue to dominate... he just needs to get his second wind now.

    Great. JVG just rewarded him by sitting him down.

    I don't get that previous play.

    Sura slashes hard down the middle and ming is right by his side down low.

    A quick pass to Ming and it would be a dunk but instead Sura passes to T-mac for a very long 3 (brick).

    I have to agree with you, not to start the Sura-bashing, he almost ran into Yao, under the basket, yet decided to kick out. The next possession, he messed up Yao's offensive rebound. maybe not intentional, but those were not wise plays you would expect from your PG.

    i swear, if we don't pound the ball to ming all day if they're going to single team him i'm gonna be pissed. right after getting 3 easy shots off we started trying to post howard on two consecutive plays. how about we let howard post up after yao has left the game and not waste part of yao's time with howard. geez.


    and i think tmac is going for the most field goal attempts ever.

    Yeah, kinda ugly. 1-7

    Howard has to drop that ball off to Deke for the dunk instead of gettin' that shot blocked. Deke was wide open
