    yea.. remember when yao had 24 points in the 1st half shooting 9-9. lets see howard do that. Heck lets see Howard make his fts on a daily basis.

    2 of them nonsense fouls.. C'mmon Yao.. you should have learnt something by now..
    That foul on pick is bad.. if they call those.. Yao will foul out in 6 plays..

    3rd foul is not really Yao's fault. But the 2nd offensive foul is a little stupid.

    How come refs never call offensive fouls on Blazers numerous moving screens?

    Did Artest purposely not take any shot attempts? Very unusual. Anyway, I'm happy we're leading.

    because our reb advantage is on def rebounds, they are shooting a lower % so it doesnt matter if they shoot the same attempts as us, they're making less

    You want two games which Yao scored 30 points and we lost? You're a moron if you want like that.

    If Avery Johnson inhaled helium only dogs could hear him speak.

    What an annoying voice.

    Good half by the Rockets. Not great, but good. Artest is playing under control. Way under control. It's almost creepy. Wafer and Landry were a big boost off the bench on the offensive side. Were it not for some lapses on D (probably concentrating too much on Roy) that led to some 3s, we'd be up big. Let's fix that at the half, shall we?

    Has Howard ever been doubled away from the ball? Yao, by not even touching the ball, is allowing scola/landry to have wide open jump shots.

    wasnt much of a screen since Lamarcus pretty much kept going, those shoud be no calls, didn't give houston any advantage and he barely got him on the shoulder...

    The second foul is legit as well. He was setting a pick and moving. As for the first one, it is arguable

    Hey, Ronny can take a hundred shots, or dip into negative territory, and when we're up double digits I'm cool with it.

    Why do we talk about every match at halftime report other than Rockets vs Blazers?

    I really don't know how I feel about Artest not shooting a single shot.
