    I had a feeling that Mr. Mean is very mean to Yao, since Yao's time has been reduced significantly recently, now even less than Kato's. Whos is the starter?

    Mr, Mean must go.

    Any possibility that these last few games are auditions for next year in that the veteran players who don't hustle or play with intensity in these meaningless games are gone?.... This could also mean that the bench players are pretty safe bets to return next year.

    dude your way off, the last two games are two more games for his players to learn, gel and get all that funky chemistry working.

    It doesn't matter anymore. The probability of Mr. Mean having any sort of meaningful decision making power next year is slim to none, and slim just left town. ;)

    Mr Means a control freak. I bet he's a backseat driver.

    This was a great game. 2 winning seasons in 3 years are not bad.

    Oh well, I miss the old days where 35 wins gets you into the playoffs. 2 Winning seaso in the last 3 years is nothing to hang your hat on.

    Maybe Mr Mean is trying to increase Cato's trade value? ;)

    Ok-- First off where did all the lamo's go? We get out of the playoff hunt and tehy stop posting?

    Second-- Why did we not play T-Rock more this season??? Oh, yes Mobley was too busy sucking.

    Ok, that is all, let the offseason posting begin after Denver!

    Turbo the mascot got hurt in the game. He was trying to jump over a ladder I think.

    I wish we could play like this all season. great game by Posey. And TMO, 8-9Fg, 17pts, in 18min! Awesome. 19pts, 9 assists for SF. Good game by Cat too.


    Too bad we lost trashy games like this (crap opponents) through out the season.

    If you were at the Game you might have noticed Yao Ming sitting on the pine for long periods of time. His demeanor was of a player either disgusted or just plain fed up. For me I would interpret it as someone who was depressed about something. If the Rockets love affair with the coaching of Larry Brown is an ongoing marriage then there is a good chance that Yao Ming might want us to find him another pasture for him to develop in ! Guys I think the Rockets are not taking care of their new player from China.

    Actually Yao asked to be taken out, face it the Rookie is completely out of energy.
    And now he has to fly back to China to practice with the national team.

    Turbo hurt his hand doing a dunk but not over a ladder.

    Nice video package the Rockets put together after the game.
    As for the Yao Ming bobble head doll, It looks cheap and looks rushed!
    Notice the one advertised the base is totally diffrent than the one they gave out.


    Thanks Rockets for giving us a decent halftime show for the finale!

    QUICKCHANGE rules!:p

    Not to question you, but how do you know that Yao asked to be taken out? I don't get to watch the games but Yao has fallen off a cliff since Smith has taken over. For those of you who are unfortunate enough to watch these games, what seems to be the main reason why YM has just plain sucked under the Smith regime?
