    Hayes led the NBDL in rebounds. Baxter has a lot of heart but we don't need an undersized 4/5. Dump him and sign Hayes for the rest of the season!!!!

    WTF was that Alston? A position ending up with one-on-five and it's not McGrady? :p

    Hayes has a double-double, sign him up. He looks for real. I am more excited than I have been all season. What a game.

    is tyson chandler the most underachieving player in the league?

    This guy just signed a monster contract, and is averaging 4.5 ppg. He is shooting 37% from the ft line.

    Barkley was also 'short'. Believe me, height is not that instrumental in being a good rebounded. Rebounding is about hustle, anticipation, and speed more than anything else.

    T-Mac makes another one...and we needed it since Deng just made a three to tie it. :eek:

    And how 'bout Skip and his 12 assists? Pass first PG? Check.

    We have a good chance to win but I wish Skip had scored more than 5 points to go along with his assists. I'm happy with T-Mac,JH,and pleasantly surprised by Hayes.

    Hayes is impressive defensively. He forces bad shots and cleans up the boards. Van Gundy having him on the floor in crunch time says 2 things.

    1. We are desparate

    2. The young man's playing has impressed even Van Gundy.

    That's saying something.

    Juwan's been terrible in the OT. missing 3 footers, getting beaten badly by Songaila on defense.

    He disappears when the Rockets need him the most.

    Give the guy a f***** break, he's played tons of minutes for an old dog, and he has helped keep us in the game duringn regulation. :rolleyes:

    Juwan being tired is NOT an excuse. If he's tired, get him off the floor.

    I want to see a win for a change. You Jho apologists make me shake my head.

    It wouldn't be the Rockets if they didn't make us sweat for the win. ;)

    Seriously though, I am more woried about the Bulls players outrunning ours and getting another easy layup. :mad:
