    Never give up!

    Never! :mad:

    Many games have been won, that shouldn't have, by NOT giving up.

    trade yao?????

    are you nuts????

    unlike francis OR AI, he's a player you can build a team around. he's unselfish, has crazy learning potential, and will be the next dominant center in the league

    wow, a team with AI, francis, and mobley. ha ha ha. that's hilarious!!! i'd pay to see how many ill advised pull up threes they hoist up. it'd be funny. spread the selfishness around will be the motto.

    Getting into a run-and-gun game with the Mavs is plain stupid. Rudy probably should have called more timeout to slow down the tempo.

    It's also obvious that too much running kills Yao's game. :(

    You mean millions of bricks? Or do you mean turnovers?

    Why Yao not in the game now? Ready to give up with 8 minutes left?

    I wouldn't go so far to say the defense was bad, it's that we couldn't get a rebound. The whole three point barrage occured because of a second chances. They missed, they hustled and got the rebound. We played good defense although all the Rockets went to get the rebound they just got out hustled.
    And since our players were in the middle, all Dallas had to do was throw out out somewhere to catch anc shoot the 3. This triggered the 3-point barrage. Worse yet, LaFrentz (a good 3 point shooter) gets hot making it harder for even Yao to go inside to get our rebounds.

    Amazingly, the Rockets have found a way to reach a new low. I thought it couldn't get any worse than last week. I am ashamed to be even a casual follower of this team.

    It is amazing. You have a big guy who is shooting over 70% tonight: the guy who got the opponent's centres in foul trouble, the guy who force the other team to shoot from outside the 3-point line, the guy who got most rebounds on the team; but he got the least touch and the least shot among all starter.

    :confused: :confused: :confused:

    Are the Rockets the laughing stock of the NBA?

    Well, this game sure went south quickly...

    I don't think anyone could have stopped Finley in the 3rd but we took some stupid shots that led to only 16 points. Just poor play by us and unbelievable play by them. I'm not sure people can blame Rudy for any of this.

    Silver lining...Yao's got the ROY swing back in his favor. Amare's currently 1-11 against the Lakers.
