    Is Barrett for real? What do you think? It was good to see Ming come through, TMac appeared to have an off game. Don't forget Howard, outdid himself on bobblehead night!

    I'll take a win any way we get it but if we have to rely on Barrett to get us out of trouble instead of T-Mac or Yao we have some serious difficulties.

    nice contribution from the people not named Yao or Tracey

    PG - 22 pts, 5 rebs and 12 assists

    PF - 26 pts, 18 rebs and 5 assists (yeah i know some of Padges mins came at SF)

    nevertheless some nice numbers from what so far has been our weak spots in our rotation

    Everyone knows that our main issue is outside shooting. You won't win many games shooting 4-18 from 3s and Yao's game will also suffer at the hands of our brick layers.

    We can devote this turnaround to Barret and his hustle.

    Barrett has great offensive skills, but his defense is pretty bad.

    No kidding! All a team has to do is implement a zone defense and we're screwed! Did JVG ever go over this in practice, because the guys look absolutely lost trying to score through a zone.

    A win is a win, all though boring as hell! I couldn't believe that a 1-15 team with CBA scrubs was actually in the game at the end of the 3rd. I'm slowly going over to the dark side of JVG as coach.

    NO can go away, but CD needs to make sure PJ stays and maybe Wesley with him.

    You just realized that?

    It does not take a man with mediocre IQ to realize that any team can stay with the Rockets with the offensive strategy by JVG. I bet Kansas Jayhawk can give the Rockets a game, maybe losing by 3 in a triple OT thriller.

    I thought we weren't going to make it. Good thing we did though.

    Our offense is a joke. NO would have beat us if they zoned the whole game.

    Since we never zone ourselves, how do we pratice against a zone? I mean, our zone can't be that great if we never use it. If we practice against a weak zone, how are we supposed to beat a good zone when we face it? It seems every time we see the zone, we end up with shots barely beating the buzzer.

    Man, we can sure use Eddie's outside shooting touch. Dude is shooting 49% from the 3s, nearly doubling TMac's outside shooting percentage.
