    Got a lil nervous at the end but it was good to see the Rockets hold on for the win. It was even better when the Sun's announcers were suugesting the Rockets started celebrating to early after halftime.

    That's a good win, but I wanna ask:

    How come we got 20 assists in the first half but only 3 in the second? our passing game has gone in the 2nd half?

    (Correct me if I am wrong)

    shots won't fall.

    The real problem was bad defence.

    Man, that was pathetic....30 points in the second half??

    How the heck does an NBA team score 30 points in one half of basketball? The Rockets were lucky that the Suns ran out of gas after that big comeback...

    WE GOT LUCKY.

    WE WERE LUCKY THAT STEPHON MARBURY GOT HURT AND MISSED THOSE TWO CRUCIAL FREE THROWS. :)

    And Steve didn't foul him.

    Marbury ran into Cato.

    By the way...CATO HAD A WONDERFUL GAME!!! Fabulous!

    And so did Yao!!!

    Our two headed center.

    Yao did have 5 turnovers though...so did Marbury.

    Francis had 1. :) And only took 9 shots. compared to 22 by Marbury.

    Glen Rice did pretty good on Marion.
    Amare was screwed. He couldn't score. For now on....we should always put Cato on him. They match up well...

    ANYWAYS. GOOD WIN.

    Now we just have to win a couple on the road.....

    Maybe Starbury ran into Cato on another play, but it wasn't Cato when he hurt his hand/wrist. Francis pushed him into Tsakalidas before Jake had a chance to pick Francis. I used to do that all the time. It's brilliant in its simplicity.

    that was an AWESOME game!!!

    This was probably mentioned earlier but their third quarter comeback was fueled by a few things:

    1. Rudy stopped assignning Cat to slow down Marbury.
    2. Rudy's starting lineup combination. He waited till like 4 minutes left to do any subs in the 3rd. This was when they cut the lead to single digits. Horrible job on Rudy's substitutions (or lack thereof) in the 3rd quarter. This starting lineup is really going to hurt us against playoff teams on the road. I see slow starts in the 1st and 3rd quarters on this road trip again.
    3. The suns stepped up their defense.

    Why are you so serious with him? He's a Suns fan in disguise. Look at this posts, it's too obvious.

    Before Yao's 9 points in the last 4:30 Amare did look like he had the better game. With Cato playing so well, I was surprised Yao got a chance to come in and redeem himself. If Cato had not picked up so many fouls, Yao probably would not have been put back in the game after 6 straight misses, turnovers, and his shot blocked 3 times.

    Get off Yao's nuts and look at it from the perspective of what time I posted that. Moron.

    Your post was almost as dumb as your "Yao getting dunked on" thread.

    'Nuff said.
