    I do agree the guards need to learn to pass better but Yao needs some work too. Its not entirely the guards fault. Cuttino had no problem getting the ball to Charles and Dream his rookie season.

    It is not possible. Remember what had happened after Rox won over the LAL with Shaq? W is good but how do they win is also important. Short sight won't bring you playoff tickets.

    Hey, I just realized something! We're on a multi-game win streak! How long has it been since that happened? ;)

    Stoudamire had a chance to tie the game in Chicago w/12 secs left and he missed his free-throw :D Bulls pull it out barely but who cares.Thanx Bulls:) The announcers kept talking about how Stoudamire is the rookie of the year,excuse but the year is not over and your team is playing like the old Roxs. Phoenix is sinking guys:D :D

    This is just what the doctor ordered. Not to get ahead of ourselves, but with Knicks and Wiz up, I see no reason why we can't be putting together... (go ahead, don't be afraid to say it)

    A WINNING STREAK!!!!

    Pardon me, but I'm gonna enjoy it anyway. I can see just fine.
    I see another W in the W column.

    Okay this is my two cents for tonight. Everyone keeps saying that their are 2 or 3 guys on Yao, so wouldn't that mean that their are 2 or 3 guys open? Just a simple thought:)

    SageHare, I agree that we should smack the Knicks up this time around, but don't doubt the ability of MJ and the Wizards...I watched the Wiz-Mavs game and I was damn impressed with how well the Wizards, MJ, Stack, and even Dixon are capable of playing. Not that the Rockets can't beat 'em...but I think something we've all learned this season is not to ASSUME that the Rockets are going to win.

    You're absolutely right, Ming1111, but those guys were Posey and Griffin...and we know how terrible a shooter Posey is and how inconsistent Eddie is.

    Something is wrong. Yao needs more attempts.

    Francis is a goddamned pg. He can get his big man more attempts. He has to, if we want to win consistently. I understand Yao won't have his game every night. But you've got to get him some attempts.

    And it's not like he has to get the ball in the low post. He's got enough range to take it in the high post.

    I don't understand this.

    Hey did you guys see the celebration after the game?! It was hilarious. It is so nice to see the players all getting together so well. Yao gave Cat a piggy back ride down the court to the benchs/entrance of lockerroom. Cat was soo happy after the win, he jumped onto Yao who was laughing, and he carried a screaming Mobes down the court with a big smile.


    So funny. These guys are great.

    GO ROCKS

    SUNS LOST. ROCKS are in 8th seed, and .5 games from 7th seed!!!!
    GO ROCKS!!!!

    ``They were double- and triple-teaming the big fella,'' Francis said. ``As much as we wanted to get him the ball, I think he understood because they had so many arms and legs on him that we didn't really want to force it.''
