    one thing surprisingly that jvg was better at than jvg is drawing up plays outta timeouts. i'm never impressed with adelman's plays after timeouts.

    u run for the game for 40+ mins and banging inside, then let's see how tough u will be at the end of the game..

    that is always the problem i had with coach A, yao is playing way too long for his size.. i would rather have him play 35mins and be productive than just put him up there and run the floor..

    OT!!!!!! Go Rockets....you can do it! Show the national audience that you're a team, not a one (or two) man show. GO!

    This has been a good game for the Rockets regardless... we haven't been down 15-20 points like we have in the last few games.

    The Nuggets are a good team, they're leading their division

    Finally rockets are playing some gall with heart...

    I can't remember when is the last time I get this excited about the game. Even when we were winning.

    Go Rockets! 5 more minutes. Do you think Idleman rests Yao?

    I wouldn't have gone to Yao there. certainly he's our best player on the floor, but Denver has done too good a job here late in disrupting his rhythm.

    Bonzi was feeling good, maybe something off a nice screen for Head, I don't know. But I think everyone expected to go to Yao, and with the way they've been defending him, that's not what you want to give to the Nuggets.

    Tough shot by Yao at the end.

    I wonder if a Brooks ISO in that situation might have resulted in something closer to the basket. Oh well, nice job by the Rockets to force overtime. Have to appreciate the effort from this group.

    I thought Karl made a mistake putting Camby back in the game. He hasn't been impacting the defensive end, and he's doing nothing on offense. Najera was doing a fine job defending Yao. They should have stayed small.

    Both Camby and najera should foul out now.
