    Yao has a monster game. Not only he has a double double 20 - 12, but also only 1 TO and that comes with 3 blocks, 3 assists and 70% FG% 100 FT% and had KG down to earth. What else could we ask for.

    :D

    Yao will definitely get ROW for sure. He is back!

    23 points on 8-12 shooting, 13 boards, 3 assists, 3 blocks, 1 steal against only one TO.

    This is definitely all star number.

    Yao has had 3 good games in a row...........

    How sweet it is. Up by 20 in the 4th, I could get used to this. ;)

    Most assist and points, over 55% shooting.

    It is so great when the Rockets are clicking like this, everyone should realize that they have to learn to play like this every night. They are getting experience. Don't freak out the next time we lose... BTW it won't be to Sacramento on Sunday.

    Definitely, especially after recent frustrating losses

    71 points for our BIG 3 now.

    Posy played well too.

    And I just CAN'T believe Taylor is back. He has played the way he did in Clippers!

    How come Kendall Gill is grilling our second unit? :confused:

    Hey Boki, don't you know if you keep playing sucky b-ball, you will be planted on the pine?

    Garnett is a real dirty player. After grabbing Francis feet from coming down from a dunk was just uncalled for. I lost all respect for him after that. Franchise could of really injured himself.

    This is Yao's first back to back 20 point games in his short NBA career!! Let's see him make it 3 in a row and have a great outing in the All Star game! :D

    his first alley oop for the Rox (maybe in his career) came off Franchise, if I recall correctly, vs the Mavs back in November '02 :D .

    WOW

    Talk about a positive influence from Dallas. 30 assists??? Three players with double digit points??? What on Earth did Rudy feed this team yesterday? By golly, for all the soul-searching and identity-finding, I think we found something here. The Rox should just watch this game over and over on replay. Gotta love not only the execution, but the great ball movement too. Shot selection was sweet. Patience was pretty good. And utilization of Yao was excellent.

    That losing streak is fast fading in my memory.

    :p

    SageHare6,

    Damn, you beat me to it. Just checked the line score and 30 ASSISTS :)

    Shot selection was great and very few forced shots or shots that didn't come within the flow of the offense. Several times you could see Cat or Steve begin to do their usual 1-on-1 and reset, rethink and post feed.

    Maybe Rudy is finally getting through. This season is one helluva roller coaster.

    This is just a taste of what can be if we play smart and use Yao correctly. :)
