    I'll gladly take the loss if it ends up being the catalyst to rudy going far far away. Anything's better than watching this BS basketball the rest of the season.

    Moochie seems to be a good thing lately. He's getting the players involved.
    Bill Worrell referred to him as a "true pointguard"......hhhmmm......hint, hint... :rolleyes:

    Rockets are pretty lucky that Miami has missed so many layups today..

    Sweet dish by Stevie to Eddie for the attempted slam/ foul

    Norris is really really a fan of YAO. You can easily tell that.

    Yippie Yao!! Sweet pass to Eddie who can't convert then BAM!!! The Yao follow up!

    Anyone notice that they're having success with the pick and roll against Yao?

    Yao gets beat off the dribble, Eddie is in place for the shotblock and Yao commits the stupid foul from behind. Why cant our players trust the shotblockers? Why do they always reach in and foul before they even get to our shotblockers?

    Everyone's forgotten about Eddie. He's coming on great! Yao should still get more touches... he's friggin' towering over Grant and being hacked like crazy.

    Love Francis, but there were a couple of outta control drives in the first half. Mooch had one crazyass one too. Sheesh!

    That Yao Ming video was pretty cool! World premier of the Yao Ming video to go along with the song. It's got that slap pass in it as well. :cool:

    Gotta feel good about the 2nd half though...

    Heat came out on fire (5-5FG), Rox have 9 turnovers in the game, Yao did nothing in the first quarter (not like he had many chances)

    But we lead by six on the road! Thanks to big 2nd quarter by EG (9pts 6reb 2blk) and a huge rebounding edge (27-14).

    Yao Ming got so few touches in the last two games we lost. It happens again so far. I hope we don't lose to a week team again. It is frustrating to see other players keep shooting and missed without getting the big guy involved.

    :(

    Typical of KT to not play the entire second quarter, then the first time he touches the ball, he shoots...and misses

    Problem with Rox is that we don't have ONE guy who looks for Yao first; everyone is out trying to get "theirs." PASS YAO THE BALL, DAMMIT!!!
