    Our defense was much better this time. But we still struggled to beat the Yao-fronting problem.

    Kyle Lowry should really play more - he drove to the basketball everytime he had the chance. And his PnR with Yao was pretty effective.

    I feel that the next game won't be easy as well.

    It was so close into the final seconds of the game but glad we pulled it off!

    Good win by the Rockets,it's meaningful and I think we can hand 'em a second straight loss at Toyota Center.

    Get ready and prepared for the next tough game!GO ROX. :D

    Man I really hope Tracy isn't on the bench the next game. I think the team tried to choke that one away in his honor!

    Because he's used for specific moments, as solid as he is, he's not going to create offense unless he can run into someone and draw a foul, you still need AB's speed to get Portland scrambling, even if he's missing some Portland is out of position for rebounds

    Huh? okay... or if you are Portland you can be demoralized because you shut down Yao and Artest and STILL lost.

    You called it a loss before the game was over. A win is a win is a win.

    I almost had a heart attack. That was so close. Phew. Now I'm relief enough to say "good game". However, we got to find a way to get Yao involved. He's been invisible in the offensive end since the first quarter.

    if we are not going to do anything about fronting, we should either trade him or turn him into big Z. Id rather adjust than using the previous two options...


    good thing other players stepped up
