    lol...Wouldn't you love to be the Mavericks? Just dominate!!!

    Anyways, it was a great game to watch. If we lost, it would not be. But we won, so MEOW!!!!!!!!!! What can you say about Cuttino Mobley?

    What made the pass spectacular when you think about it is the timing involved in something like that. Really a fun play to watch over and over.

    I'm so relieved that we won. I thought the Hornets were going to win when the 3rd quarter ended but fortunately we got it done. We are such an inconsistant team,but the guys showed a lot of heart tonight. I think Cat and Cato made a big difference tonight.

    SLA, please please please stop talking about your darling Mobley again. It's true. He had a great game, but he had been playing so bad for so many games. We want players who are consistent. Mobley is not consistent at all.

    The best thing about the play is that it got MoT off the court. The guy is way out of shape and a step slow. He needs to get some more strength back in his legs and lose another 20 poounds.

    What a game! Hopefully this is the turning point of the season. It is definitely a confidence builder. It just amazes me how the Rockets can play so well against tough teams and play so poorly against the easier teams. The Rockets are the second youngest team in the NBA - so they are still going to have some tough spots during the season. Have faith.

    Steve is really starting to play like a leader and sound like one on the post game interview. That was huge when he stole the jump ball that lead to the dunk which put the Rockets up for good.

    Great games for Mobley, Cato, Griffin, Steve and Posey.

    Anyone else going to join Posey Posse Outlaw's :D

    They run the same play for Moochie and Francis almost every game. It just the way Yao delivered the pass that was so beautiful.

    Dynasty's been playin basketball 24/7/365. He needs to rest for a few weeks, the guy went from CBA to World Championships to NBA. He's not superman but he's pretty close. I think fatigue will start to show a lot more in the second half of the season unless the dude gets some rest. Mobley haters go suck a rotten egg with maggots and shat.

    this is one weird game. we scored 31 points more in the 4th than in the 3rd. is that a record?

    glad we won though.

    Good win tonight. Mo Taylor still looks terrible. Robert Traylor is the new Two Sandwiches.

    That was ugly. I hate to say this but I am starting to dislike watching this selfish brand of basketball. How about one extra pass? How about players understanding what their strengths are? I am sure glad we won!

    We broke our record : Houston's seven points were its fewest ever in the third quarter and matched its franchise low for any quarter -- the fourth quarter against the Los Angeles Lakers on November 15, 1991.

    Well, but we win finally. haha :D
