When win becomes habit, everything is easier.

i start to think tmac's horrible fgp is ok, as long as we win. he can sleep for 30 minutes a game and only be awake for 10 minutes, that is ok if we win....
but please wake up early in playoffs!!

 

Yao should really have sat out the end of the 4th quarter. Scola and Landry had it under control and Yao was just out of it.

Why does it seem like we have an entirely different rotation every game?

I guess we are trying to keep the other teams guessing or something.

 

Be eeaasy man... it's still really early.

 

Jeez, you scared me. It's only a 7 point lead in the 1st Q.

 

once again rafer aka skip-2-my-lou came through

 

OMG, it's a beautiful dream

 

It's a 6 pt game in the 1st quarter. Too early to be calling blowouts.

 

It's way early in that game. I expect Boston to make that a barn burner. Then again, this is a payback game. Earlier in the year Boston completely humiliated Denver so the Nuggets are looking for some payback. Also, they're battling for their playoff lives since they're not qualifying for the playoffs right now.

 

I wish Rafer can keep this performance on a daily basis.

 

Maybe loose time...sometimes fans are a little too hard even to be hater

 

Exactly. Denver was blowing them out in the opening minutes but there's a reason why Boston has the best record in the league. And why they'er 16-0 vs the West.

 

CLASSIC... don't hurt em skip

 

tmac 6 for 21 and 0 for 4 from three pt. but yao 3 for 17... has he ever shot so terrible... cant remember but anyway it was a win so its ok 9 in a rowww

 

Amazing performance by the Rockets (with Yao/McGrady 9/38 combined), especially defensively (4th quarter of course). 9 in a row baby ! Rafer player of the game, 6 threes !

GO ROX !!!

 

Rafer had a great game for us. Tmac did not shoot well, but he played within the system, and was a big factor in our win tonight.

 

Garnett is playing tonight, too. It looks like he only played a handful of minutes though in the 1st quarter.

 

Yeah!! Good game. If only our main two (or even one of them for that matter) had a better game, this game could have been a blowout! Now, Miami. We can win this game, for sure. Whether Miami was 15 + games under .500 or not. Thing about Miami, and don't quote me on this, but I think what they plan to do is play hard for their fans, and basically tank the game at the end, sort of. I'm not sure, but either way, we should win!! Hopefully we go into the New Orleans game with a long time before precedented 10 game streak!! I'm just glad we have won 8 and 9 in a row. This is the first time this has happened since I've been a fan (which was about when the rockets took the lakers to like 5 (or was it 6?) in their most recent playoff meeting. Gg.

 

One day someone is going to write a book about the TMac/Yao era: it will be titled "Winning Ugly."

I can't think of another group of Rockets that have won so many dog ugly games. Dog ugly.

First, the Cavs are awful. They are absolutely going nowhere in the East.

Yao and TMac couldn't hit the side of a red barn with a brick bat. TMac kept shooting, and chunking, and chunking, AND chunking. The boy can't spell DRIVE.
Yao was off, off, off, and looked like a statue around the basket, like his feet were glued to the floor.

Rafer, had the best game. He must have read all the reports about the Rockets looking for a PG. That does it for him every time. Six threes, a personal record. Congrads Rafer.

Landry and Scola should get more minutes.

Bonzi should never take another three point shot in his tenure with the Rockets.

Dog ugly.
