    Are they going to give Yao the ball more?

    Are they going to drive more to the basket on the offensive end?

    Are they going to actually grab the defensive rebound?

    What should we do?!?

    whatever we were doing in the 4th looked like it was working fine. Get Yao involved. Get Yao to play aggresively on offense.

    Who is going to stop Stackhouse? Why isn't Wesley stepping up? They really need to stop celebrating and try to win out this series.

    Yao needs a monster 1st and 2nd half instead of just a 2nd half in this game.

    Win, whatever it takes, just do it. Play your best, if it's not good enough, then you take it and roll with it.

    If another mavs player goes in to try and steal another rebound from us, someone has to elbow the **** out of him. Seriously...

    My strategy is to find out who is officiating and what the Vegas line is.

    Pick and roll, Pick and roll, Pick and roll, Pick and roll.... with Tracy and Yao, Tracy and Yao, Tracy and Yao, Tracy and Yao.

    The Rockets probably ran that play 8 times in a row in the 4th quarter of a game 5, and they still couldn't figure out how to stop it. They can defend the p&R when Tracy runs it with anybody else other than Yao.... but when Yao is there (and actually sets the pick on the defender, and doesn't let him slip around it)... the play is darn near unstoppable.

    At the least, it should give them some easy buckets... and if Dallas tries too hard to stop it, they'll leave their weak defense even more vulnerable.

    We expend so much energy on offense some time.... get some easy buckets, and save all that energy for the DEFENSE that was nowhere to be found in that 4th quarter.

    What can you do if it's a conspiracy?

    Should we play Bowen more instead of Padgett? It was kind of weird that JVG didn't give him enough time to play.

    Rockets 2-0 when Bowen starts in the playoffs and 0-3 with Padgett. Let's go with the Germinator.

    Padgett didn't start game 3.

    Nor was he out there during the 20-0 run (and maybe he should have been).

    Regardless... we're not losing because of the presence of either of these players, or because of the lack of either of these players.

    The best one was when Yao faked the PnR and went back to the post. Completely ruined the Mavs defense. Ended up with the and-1 dunk. That was a thing of beauty (until the missed FT).
