    Not a good win. I must have aged at least 5 years watching this game.

    Choke City.

    I agree, brilliant defense on Chauncey and great diving save!

    I just wish we could hold on to a 4th quarter lead on the road convincingly.

    A big improvement from the Chicago loss at the least. Go Rox!!

    That's the bottom line. I feel the same way as you do.A better team can blow us apart in the 4th.

    This was a Huge win, make no mistake about it. For those of you whining about Yao or FTs or how hollow the win was, you're probably the same people who would rather look good and lose rather than look bad and win. (White Men Can't Jump reference BTW)...

    Taking Artest out as soon as he went into chucker mode was a great move. He was much more aggresive when he came back in at the end.

    Lowry is such a stabalizing force when we have a lead, I love the ball in his hands at the end of games. Guy is stable as a table.

    Refs definitely favored the Rockets tonight, which is a rarity.

    What a game! Almost got a heart attack. I am a fan of Yao but I got to agree with the Denver's commentator about the reaching foul at the end:
    "DUMBEST FOUL OF THE YEAR!" - Almost cost us a game. I guess he was just so tired with this b2b game that his brain just stopped working at that time.

    BTW, our defense is really picking up ever since Mr. $20M was out.

    I seriously had to take a Zanex just to make it through this one...thank God we won or I really would've had an anxiety breakdown. Thank you Shane.

    Dear Yao,
    You must be ****ing kidding me? That was the poorest, dumbest, most ridiculous attempt at a steal I have ever seen in my entire life. I mean...what did you plan on doing IF by some miracle of God you'd been able to poke it out? Spring it down for a dunk? Please man...please never do that again.

    Hugeeee win. Ugliest all year....HUGE. We missed like 15 FTs what the hell was that all about? Good lord...

    BY THE WAY DID ANYONE CATCH DWAYNE WADE'S RIDICULOUS PERFORMANCE? SOOOO NASTY
