    Welp, 1 of 2 things Rockets fans dread: Kevin Martin having a great 1st half the other Yao Ming Falling.

    It's not a carry, it's the Euro dribble.

    Martin has always been a great 1st half scorer. The second half is where he disappears.

    Lowry with 9 points, 6 reb, 7 ast, 1stl at the half. Needs to pick up his FG% though.
    Martin 21 pts, 7-12 from the field. He kept us in when the Wolves were closing distance.

    The bench is sucking again. Minny have been good in the 4th quarter. Their FG% can only go up. To be this close isn't a good sign. The bench needs to step up or the Rockets lose.

    SammyD played most of 1st quarter and we hold them to 19. SammyD hardly plays in the 2ndQ and they score 28.

    Why does McHale dislike SammyD so much?

    exactly why it's a point of dread by Rockets fans. An excellent first half doesn't mean he will have a good game.

    Is Chase Budinger out of the rotation?

    Ex-Rockets center Jim Petersen. He likes the Rockets.

    Anyone else impressed with the classiness of Minnesota's commentators? They haven't been whining about the no-calls and physical play, they actually seem familiar with our players, and they're just generally well-spoken.

    Typically I only notice other local commentators when they're obnoxious, ignorant homers (looking at you, Memphis/Milwaukee/Tommy Heinsohn).

    Yup, I love it though it wouldn't hurt for them to focus more on their wolves than how the good the rockets are ;) We have terrible homers, Bullard has turned Bill into one now too..

    They said Budinger was outplayed and did not even try to fight to get his spot back and they are now questioning his competitiveness or lack thereof.

    Patterson made a new record. 3 fouls in 1.29 min.
