    Great game by the Rockets. Carl Landry was beast. McGrady played great in 10 minutes. I just love the whole combination of our players. I know Adelman is happy with the players in this team. Adelman can create mismatch with any team by going to brooks for speed or Scola for experience or Lowry/Landry for strong play. I LOVE THIS TEAM>

    T-Mac dominated the first quarter.
    Landry dominated the 4th.
    Scola and Lowry dominated the 2nd and third.

    Bad games for Ariza (nice Block I guess) and Brooks but we still won.

    yup, they are bench players who are starters, hence the best bench players evar.

    63 I guess, excluding T-Mac's occasional 10 points in his limited minutes, our bench players still pwned and outscored the Clips 53-12, which gave us a huge boost down the stretch. :grin:

    Tmac: a big step to back to his old form.

    Talyor: I am impressed. I think he has a bigger potential than Budinger and Wafer (do we really need to sign Wafer?).

    Lowry: Brooks should thank him. If Lowry wasn't here, Brooks would not be able to handle the starting pg position.

    Landry: If he didn't win the 6th man of the year, this award should be cancelled.

    The Rockets' PF tandem of Scolandry is starting to really blossom. I can't wait for next year when Yao is back, CBud has a year of seasoning and a significant player is added. Go Rockets.

    Great team effort tonight. It's ironic that this is the highest scoring season Rox have had in a while after everyone thought they'd have trouble scoring.

    Nothing going to stop Landry! He is the man.
    Lot of props to Luis too,tonight. Scolandry at it's best!

    I love Kyle,what a tough guy he is. Don't forget what Tracy did,he looked really good,and played within the team concept.
    Battier,Andersen and even JT pitched in nicely too.

    Ariza needs to work his shooting and his FT's,but I think he will get better.
    Hope that C-Bud gets healthy soon. Waiting to see what Wafer can do,but he needs to outplay Taylor to get minutes. No freebees.

    Rick Adelman for coach of the year so far.

    Damn Ariza is morphing into Rafer Alston: 2-11 FGs, an 0-fer from 3 pt land, decent defense and 6 assists. Man Alston's gotta be the real inspiration of the Borg: just when you thought you got rid of him, he assimilates a player and comes back stronger than ever :(


    Good thing Scolandry played really well, our 1,2,3 starters played like crap. IMHO Battriza should never average more than 30 a game, esp. now that Tmac is playing well and we signed Von back. Tmac probably won't see extended pt until next year (if at all), so I'm hoping Von will get 20 mins of play at Battriza's expense. Good game over all :grin:

    He'll definitely be in the final two with Jamal Crawford....he had another good game off the bench with 26 pts.

    I wonder who averages the most assists out of the back-up point guards.

    I thought I heard Clyde say that the team was going on a "3 game roadstand"
