    Griffin is good, he just got an offensive board and drew a foul out of Duncan.

    His blocks seem to have disapeared.

    could somebody help Yao out when he tries to make that turnaround fadeaway 10 footer?

    right. He also missed 2 FT in the last 4 attempts. Now Yao is out, Rox will finish 3rd quarter 18 points behind.

    EG not only bad on defence; he is ugly on offence. Same could be said about his FT.

    :(

    Griffin is playing better than Mobley who is 2-10 from the field
    all he does is shoot from the outside, i have a real hate for him.

    I agree, Mobley and Posey are still sleeping. How Rudy put Posey on court for so long.

    Give Hawk more time.

    Acrophobia is right: EG hasn't done much of anything for the Rockets . I mean its not like he is batteling a Tim Duncan to get good stats on his own team. His rebounds are down alot because of Yao, but where is his points, assists, and blocks?

    Yao almost never gets the ball when he is in good position. When SF or Cat or EG pass the ball to him, they always fake first and then pass. It is like telling the opposing team: "be prepared, I am passing the ball to the big fellow, push him out!".

    EG would be a Jr. in college this year, so people believe he could still turn it around. It takes a while for the young guys to get it going usually, aside from guys like Amare.

    If Rudy is not stupid enough, he should put Yao in at least 10:00 left in the game, otherwise the game will soon beyond reach.

    is the rockets substitute patern pre-determined? Yao made a great play (the most aggressive dunk i've seen) to help the Rockets and the fans get back into the game then he get benched yet again.

    The way Posay and EG holding the ball on offense, I wish they fall on the floor and break their noses. Cat is not better.

    What really has EG done since he's been a Rocket? We're not talking about this game (even though he's not doing nothing), we're talking about since he has been in Houston.

    Look at T-Mac, no I'm not saying that Griffin is, or will ever be as good at McGrady, but it takes a lot of these young guys a few years to develop into solid starters. Do we really want to be like the Raptors and give up a future star, or at least solid player, just because he could produce when he was 20 years old?

    You can develop, but not as starter, why is so hard to understand?

    Is there a quick fix for Yao's lack of energy? If he doesn't have to sit in 2nd and 4th quarter...

    He has 5 offensice rebounds, 2 steals and 1 block
    5-13 from the field is not too bad and has only attempted 1 three.

    Not bad in my books
