    I wouldn't count the Nets out yet. Rockets have the tendencies to slack off, like in previous games when leading by 15 or more.

    If Scola made his FTs, we would've led by 25+ after the 1st half.

    Everyone is talking like the game is over. Let's see if we have a killer's instinct or if we'll see the Rockets of old.

    We have outscored the nets both quarters, badly as well. So the Rockets haven't given them any signs of live so far, so unless the Nets can catch fire, then they have no chance.

    The Nets are pretty good, better than the clippers and Grizs.

    Giving it to the Nets, but I expect a surge from the Nets

    if one thing needs to improve, its free throw shooting, at only 58%, come on.

    2nd quarter wasn't as good for the Rockets as it could have been. I think they didn't play much defense, not nearly as much as the 1st quarter. But starters were resting....

    Nets
    Quarter 1: 13
    Quarter 2: 27

    That was whack. He wasn't even close on 3 or 4 of them.

    I knew he wasn't as good as the way he started the season, but he isn't this bad either.

    They're not that bad. Harris got in early foul trouble and they took away the lane from VC making him a jump shooter, he's not making his shots. Take those two away and u have a bad team.

    definitely on track for another 100+ pt night win. then we'll be 13-0 when scoring over 100.

    i agree with what someone said a few pages ago: if we put away the nets early, we can rest our starters to take on le bron tomorrow night.
