    Hey, I'm the #1 member of the Eddie House Fan Club. He'd be a good fit for Yao just by virtue of being able to knock down a shot.

    I realize he has flaws. But I like him. I damn sure do.

    we should have a slim lead instead of a slim deficit.

    if only we didn't turnover the ball so damn much.

    Our starting guards are not taking care of the basketball and they both seem a little nervous.We are playing to not lose instead of playing to win. We get settled down second half we win this game PERIOD POINT BLANK.

    Let me guess, if Luther Head scores 31 one time next year, you'll say you'd rather have him run the point? yeah makes a ton of sense.. :rolleyes:

    that's what LA does. long bodies get into the lanes and create turnovers for transition points

    it's okay everyone relax. LA will get those.

    Houston had some bad bounces including Landry missing that dunk

    lowry had some wild drives and wafter jacked some shots

    if Houston plays like this in the 2nd half and continue to get calls they'll win

    for some reason i'm not totally comfortable with the scola - walton match-up. Walton's 3's can really hurt us especially late in the quater.

    overall, rockets doing a good job. rockets should be up by double-digits if not for the turnovers. careless passing and careless ball-handling is killing them. need to take care of the ball in 2nd half or they'll end up losing this one. keeping feeding yao the ball!!!!

    lets go rocketssssssss

    Scola is playing well on the offensive side, but his lack of defensive prowess is showing tonight.

    I believe even though he doesn't have the speed of Walton or Ariza, he should still try and stay a bit closer to them on defense. Neither one are really attempting to take it to the hole, and Scola is giving them too much room to shoot a long jumper.

    Are you stupid or not? AB got pocket picked twice, Kobe stole the ball on inbound play, Artest passed out of bounds to AB, Chuck travel, Wafer offensive foul. That's 6 right there already. 

    And I'm sure there were more had nothing to do with Yao.

    The Refs are on making the call for us and we better take advantage of it.

    But I fear we are one of the worst team in the second half during the regular season. I better be wrong.
