    James has an unbelievable ability to "stop on a dime" as Worrell would say, he has amazing body control.

    sidenote: Davis just had a sportscenter posterization of Mike James.:eek:

    They definitely have to go inside more.

    Rockets are not making a SHOT (literally), and they are being run out of the building.

    On the other hand, the Celtics can't miss.

    I guess it is just one of those game.

    Ya well, here to the next win streak!:(

    Great, now after TOs and bricks by perimeter players, we are down by 13.

    Its a good thing that "tonight" is still 2 1/2 quarters longer.

    I expect a nice verbal barage from JVG in this timeout, and at halftime as well.

    we lost barry?


    guess the overconfidence factor is sneaking in and we might lost this game.

    It wouldnt be one of those games if we stopped the outside jump shooting and attacked the rim.

    I don't like the Celtics.
    It's okay if we lose this one.

    Only way we can get back in is if we run plays for Yao. Screw the Celtics.

    Shots are not falling tonight, wide open ones.. I hope we focus on getting Yao more touches. This is his night to shine. I expect a different team after halftime.

    Or it could be that the Celtics are flamin hot right now much more than the Rockets are, and it's showing.

    Nevertheless, if the Rockets had made some of those completely wide open shots, they would still be in the game big time!

    Yah well, you can't expect us to be hot forever I guess.

    The Cletics are destroying us now

    i don't like getting beat but i can accept it. what i absolutely can't stand is when the opponent bullys you around and then dances off the court into each timeout.

    i want to see someone knock one of the C's out like steve would do. let them know where they stand.

    Its all Yao all the time right now... a YOF's wet dream.

    EDIT: But, Al Jefferson is abusing him big-time on the other end.

    That's what I'm banking on as well... get to halftime w/ a marginal deficit... and hopefully Gundy will light a fire under them.... especially on defense, which has been horrid thus far.
