Yao and Tmac both score 30 or more. Mike James comes off the bench to score 22. Rafer Alston will miss more than he makes.

I really think Mcgrady should be the one bringing up the ball to avoid being double/triple teamed/ trapped. He's also the most intelligent ball-handler we have so we need him to handle the ball in critical situations. Granted, he did f up on that last possession in the third quarter
If mike james scores a less 15 ponit, then the rox is going to lose it again. This is a very simple fact so far. By the way, Wells can take a three, and miss it badly, and Francis can not be on the floor for a min, a total different year.
To be really honest, I think we will lost this game... I just hope we keep it at a very close loss and learn from it.
I think the Rockets need to get Scola involved in the offense. He would be perfect to run screen and rolls with T-Mac. He can pick and pop and hit the mid range shot. That would open up the offense. I think he is still trying to find his comfort zone and get the other players to trust him. Right now he is only scoring on garbage plays. Wells needs to find his groove as well. Once these two players get in the offense, we will be tough to deal with. Right now it is only Yao and T-Mac doing everything. M James had two hot games. Not enough against the elite teams. I look for the rockets to try and establish Yao early, BUT just like the Mavs, the spurs will send the hard double at him immediately forcing others to do something.
please don't put luther in. He is such a defensive liablity. He can't even create his own shot. GO ROX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Keys to the game: *Yao has to DEMAND the ball and MUST REALIZE this is his TEAM. He has to understand that he is the best player on the team and SHOW IT. I want to see the same guy on the video saying "you can't @#$% stop me". He has OWNED Duncan in the past, so he needs to do that AGAIN AND AGAIN. *McGrady has to become more like Magic than be like Kobe. If he has the ball the majority of the time, he has to make the RIGHT basketball plays, be it taking it to the hole or passing it off *Establish 3rd scorer *Have Scola be PHYSICAL on Duncan
we need Bonzi to get more touches, but Yao hurts Bonzi's effectiveness because theyre both low post players. hopefully the bench gives us a spark tonight. we're gonna need it since its a back to back.
Spurs fan checking in. This is NOT a game in November the Spurs EVER win. Contender on the road as defending champs? No way. Funky rotations between 3rd and 4th quarters will make this one a laugher. Rockets 104 - Spurs 88
