    Those were good open looks and in rhythm. He had one wild heat check that went in and out.

    I won't even say we played the whole 4th qtr, more like the final 7 minutes.

    Regardless, get the ball to Yao.

    WTH!! I couldn't take it anymore and stop watching in early 4th quarter when we were down by 10 pts+... I checked Yahoo sports for final scoring and expect Houston lose.... but Houston wins by 12 pts... wohoooo!!

    Didn't Yao averaged double figure rebounds last couple years? His foot is obviously bothering him at this moment, or he simple doesn't want to jump, so he can protect his foot.

    Mcgrady is not paid all that money to just stand on the perimeter and shoot. He has to attack also. We will need him to create from everywhere on the floor.

    Tonight Yao created due to the matchup, but there will be nights when tmac has to carry that load.

    tracy's leg is not ready for that right now. he'll do the playmaking when he gets healthier. just now he just gotta take it easy.

    and yes it's due to matchups. there was no way mcghee could stop yao. he looked like a toothpick. but yao DOMINATED. that dunk oozed aggression.

    It feels like we steal a game from Wizard. Yao and TMac really dominated at the end. Alston, please stop shooting.

    I rather have 3 quarters down, 4th quarter back, not the reverse. Hehe..

    i think the comback started after that emphatic dunk by yao ming.
    the dunk sent a message from yao to the rest of the team.
    great win houston :)

    my friend.. you are incredibly wrong.. we do not need Tracy creating everywhere on the floor.. once again.. " speed and leaping ability are not what they used to be"... noticed the threes he was draining this game..? noticed anything different from Tracy's usually outside shot..? that's right.. less elevation.. but more arch.. even JVG noticed it.. it's no coincidence.. because that's what Tracy has to become now.. a perimeter spot up shooter.. as well as a low post playmaker.. other than that.. no.. let it go.. let it be..

    we are here to play to win.. not to justify Tracy's annual salary..

    I GOTTA GIVE IT UP TO BROKE KNEE WHO PAVED THE WAY FOR THIS WIN!!!

    AS ridiculous as those first 3 quarters were i didnt think TMAC would pull it off. Landry all day puttin it in their faces. Started off sloppy as if they didnt care but still managed to win. Shout outs to Earth Wind and Fire.


    WIN!!!

    I think if thats what we expected mcgrady to be, we would have traded him for an expiring contract and a much lesser player. Trust me, the organization expects more from mcgrady.

    Kind of like what most of the fans who attended that game four years ago did (left early) that featured T-Mac's 13 points in 33 seconds for that seemingly improbable win? A game in which it had another ugly Rocket loss written all over it 47-plus minutes into that one.

    I'll agree, it was easy to think that the way you saw the Rockets playing at the time you quit watching the game, the Rockets would just lose this game silly.

    definitely agree with you, right now, because of t-mac's health, he can't play the same type of game that he used to. he has to adjust his gameplay. maybe when he gets healthier and stronger, he can use his strength and quickness to create his own shots but right now, he's gotta use what he's got
