    I didn't get the game. Last time we played Denver, McDyess scored over 40. Was he just not trying as part of the Nuggets' tanking effort, or is KT's defense better than I give him credit for?

    It wasn't as much KTs D as it was that Mcdyess didn't get many touches...not downing KTs D at all because he played tremendous D.

    McDyess looked terrible. Is it just me, or does he look really small out there? KT looked big compared to him. KT had his way with McDyess most of the game.

    Let us not forget that Antonio McDyess is averaging:

    50.3% FG shooting
    19.2 pts
    8.4 rebs
    1.75 blks

    And, he's not doing it over a 10-game stretch... he's doing it over an entire NBA season.

    He had a bad game and we won. LaFrentz took 10 shots, McCloud took 14 shots, and Van Exel took 25 shots... there just weren't that many quality shots to go around.

    Any time Antonio McDyess wants to bring his 6'9" 220lb self over here to the Rockets, I'll be happy to welcome him.

    I have a dream.........his name's Hakeem.
