    Last time when Rockets played Bucks at home, the total three centers of Bucks didn't get ONE sigle point or ONE assist. What they did in the game was just pushing YM.

    This time I expect a good game for Ming.

    But I am a little worried about the subsitution style of Larry Smith. He likes to take the "hot hand" off the court. Yesterday Ming complained to a reporter from Shanghai in their dialect "I was like a brick to be moved back and forth."

    The suns won last night, and now we have to win.

    NO playoffs, unless our guys show up.

    I agree with this and would like to provide an example.

    Yao Ming was amazing the the first quarter against the Nets. but, yet did not get back in the game until there were 6 minutes left in the first half.

    Whem Yao is hot like that, he should have only gotten a little break and came back in the game with around 9 or 8 minutes left in the 2nd quarter.

    u know, in the first half of the season, i thought we were maybe saving yao for the stretch run, where he can get more minutes maybe. Well, this is the stretch run, so i was way wrong!! I would like to give Larry a chance, but he is giving Moochie more minutes than Yao:eek:

    Huh, I doubt Mean would pound Ming at low post whole game. Expect him to
    bench Ming and play Cato for half of the game.

    We will lose because Larry sucks. I expect to see lots of Mr. Mean is useless & stupid posts here after the game.

    ATrain, I just did Houston Rockets vs. Milwaukee Bucks and it said that the Rockets would win, looks like either way googlefight.com will be wrong for the first time.

    End of 1st.. 30-20 Houston. Ming has 12 points, 4/5 shooting. Griffen is playing well. Let's do this for another 3 quaters guys and we'll be almost in the 8th spot!

    I smell a victory unless Larry benched Yao too long and let Bucks come back

    Team is hitting shots and making too many TO's. Good start.

    Was this game going to be a loss according to board predictions?
