    Rudi is very comforatble with 11 points behind to keep Ming in the bench. What a Coach!

    We lost all close game in 4th quarter because Francis there. Look at the statistics, he may bring us 1 or 2 big win, but waste 8 out 10 close game.

    Kobe is out and Yao is in. If we can't tie the game, we definitely have serious problem.

    Great job Mo! He's hogging the ball a little bit, but he's hussling non-stop and getting a decent number of rebounds and making good buckets!

    And a big way to go on that charge!

    I don't know what the hell is wrong with this team. I don't even know where to start. I just hope they get their sh*t together fast or it's time to stay home in late April.

    Either way, it is an ugly play because of SF and Rudy. We just need Mo+Yao on both end. If they got the minutes, we would won big.

    we isn't rudy starting Mo? Mo and Yao together creates so manh more opportunities for our perimeter players. Griffin is a perimeter player as of now. Let him develop his game,until then start MO

    shooting 37%, francis is 1-12 and the rockets trail by just 5! as bad as things have gone in this one, with just five good minutes they'll win it.
