    They aren't giving Yao or Artest the ball...

    It's been the McGrady-Alston show for the entirety of the quarter.

    it's fine if we're missing open looks, but we arent even getting good shot opportunities.

    Might be a wise idea to hold off on the championship dreams with Rafer as the starting PG, considering his shooting.

    This team will only go as far as Rafer's shooting takes it, as long as he gets most of the minutes.

    Rafer bricking, Yao being soft and bringing the ball low after making a good move to the rim, T-Mac jacking up long jumpers, ball movement as smooth as a rusty chair leg.

    Where Rockets basketball happens.

    Defense is doing it for us though.

    Gasol plays better than Yao, but Luis is the difference maker here.

    Please take out Rafer, TMac and Yao. Let's see if Barry, Head and Landry could make some difference.

    Huh...didn't Adelman mentioned that he would take it easy on Yao this year? 28 mins already...it's a bit disappointing that he's not using more of the Rockets depth.

    As expected, this offense resembles nothing close to a "motion offense". Tracy does move without the ball, and there's way too much iso.

    Adelman has A LOT of work to do to achieve a motion offense.
