    What the heck was the "cleaning the shoes" part by Chuck Hayes on that last play? :D

    we want to make tmac and yao's job EASIER DURING the game so balance scoring is necessary. but down the stretch, you go to your bread and butter/best players and the 2-man game is required with 5 minutes to go.

    notice tmac started to handle the ball A LOT with 7 minutes to go.

    Great defense by Chuck!
    The 3-pointers shooting saves us. This year we are really poor behind the arc. Hopefully this is the sign our shooters are finding touch.
    Still don't understand why we don't let Novak or Yao shoot the FT.

    Jesus christ those Sonics announcers are f***ing TERRIBLE. Not only are they ridiculously biased (and seriously, who is a homer after a 11-and-now-12-game losing streak), but they insisted on calling the Sonics the "Supes" ALL NIGHT LONG. I feel sorry for Sonics fans that have to watch that all season.


    We blewout the Wolves by over 30... and they just beat Phoenix and Golden State, sooo...

    didn't deserve this one. on the plus side, landry is making a stronger and stronger case.

    My only concern is why did Rick not set a play for someone other than T-mac to hold the ball...regardless, we won and it was cuz of T-mac so i'm not going to hate on him for missing those freethrows. If he doesn't do what he did, those freethrows don't even matter.

    The sad part, half the people on the board will still say...he missed freethrows.

    How many true Rockets fans are left on the board?

    but he has a good stroke. he was stroking his jumpers fine. it's just focus. fts should be the least of his worries but it is. he has to fix this soon.

    wow ... i could have sworn right when i noticed it was durant that flashed open on that last play, that the 3 was going in ... instead it hit back of rim and oh my. can't believe it.

    say all the bad about this team for this game, but we stepped up in the 4th, something we've yet to do much of this season ... and last season too if I'm not mistaken.

    We all know this team needs to seriously practice on the free throws. It seems everytime someone goes to the line except yao, they miss at least 1/2 ... if not both.

    good game ... well not really, but we won so ya.
