    The Rockets played like GARBAGE against Indiana and still won the game easily. How? Defense and rebounding. They outrebounded Indiana by 26 and had 25 offensive rebounds. You can do pretty much anything you want when you put up those kind of numbers. Atlanta is much worse than Indiana defensively, and the Rockets should be able to shoot a higher percentage against them. I see a double digit victory for them again tonight.

    A-Train,

    Don't you remember how pissed off you were when you cursed out ZRB because of his excessive negativity? Take a step back and look at yourself bro. Its like every post with you now.

    Hehe, yeah, A-Train's damn annoying, but I THINK most of the time he's just kidding... and I hope. Please correct me if I'm wrong A-Train.

    Anyone else think that Ming is trying to put too many moves on Ratliff? Shouldn't he just step up and stroke his shot, instead of messing with all that fluff? Also, Ming flashed into the paint twice on early possessions. Rice jacked a shot and someone else chose a jumper. Seems like the only time the Rockets look to pass him the ball is when he is covered and posting.

    I think somebody who's keeping score today at ESPN doesn't like Yao. So far No updates of his stats at all!

    This team is just killing us off the glass...already 7 offensive boards for Atlanta. Maybe it's time to put Posey in to give Big Dog a change of scenary!

    -HOUSTON, TEXAS. COMPAQ CENTER

    ROCKETS ARE DOING GREAT...and then Glenn Robinson is always open and shoots perfectly. HE IS NOT BEING GUARDED. Finally one minute before the quarter ends, RUDY REALIZES THAT HE SHOULD PUT JOAQUIN HAWKINS IN NOW because Glen Rice cannot guard the other GLENN. WHY DOESN'T HE PUT JAMES POSEY IN? He likes to take is slowly and patiently...

    MEANWHILE......................

    -Philly

    SHAQ is too big for KT to be able to play. But Larry Brown is nice enough to let him play.......AND HE LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE WHEN HE WAS A ROCKET except he is NUMBER NINE. HE still does his spinning and rotations driving the basket. And he makes a layup over SHAQ!!!!!!!!!! That's KT. Then he loses the defender on the next play following the pass from KEITH VAN HORN...that's great respect...and he is wide open. But he can't make the shot. The philly crowd is cheering for him...


    AND AT THE COMPAQ CENTER. We are losing to a losing team.

    MAN...Theo Ratliff blocked Yao...lol Yao had 2 consecutive blocks. NICE DUNK.
