    RA did a good job sitting Brooks. But why doesn't he have the guts to sit Artest as well?

    All the years I seen Worrel he has never singled out someone on a consistent basis, wonder why he has a bullseyes on Artest when this team has gone thru the Francis dribble times infinity and T-mac no drive jumpers?

    Wish Artest was'nt missing almost everything besides free throws. Could have had an 18-20 point lead instead of 12 at halftime. Or shoot a few less shots and give them to someone else.

    It would be...but then Ron would punch RA in the jaw and his whole head would disintegrate.

    3rd quarter is going to be the Yao Ming show.

    I like when they showed a close up of Artest after that..um...play.

    He has this look on his face like he was looking at a math problem, and he pumps his chest and says, "my bad"!

    I have a love/hate relationship with this guy, he is seriously out of his damn mind, truely is a scary individual.

    Pause.

    Just because Ron "Spurs Killer" Artest in the playoffs and I will be content with your...skill?? :confused:

    Artest is really stupid and since when did he become our point forward a la Tracy ??? The Rockets need to trade this guy in the offseason for a real SG because the guy is not going to get us anywhere. He is not that good and he's bringing any toughness to this team like some people would think.
    If it weren't for Artest, we would be up way more now.

    Also I do not want to see Brent freaking Barry getting minutes anymore, he is too old and cannot even make the threes. His defense is poor and is out of sync, might as well kept Novak because he at least did what he was supposed to do.

    Since Ron is such a Math Master you'd think he would see that 1/9 is not good lol

    Do not let Artest handle the ball with time running out. He is not a point guard. Why is this so hard for Adelman to comprehend?

    But by virtues of the least evil, Artest is much better than Barry today. He is basically useless and caused big hole in the defense end. What is Adelmen thinking by putting in Barry?

    Heres the thing

    I like the old Ron, the Ron in 2008, a little bit of 2009. The Ron that shoots the open 3s and create and not dribble dribble dribble TO.

    Comparing this Ron and the injured T-Mac. This Ron is not injured, his brain is set up to have him think like a warrior, think hard, which cause craziness to happen. The injured T-Mac, holds the ball, BUT he still finds our guys open and create, instead of turning it over (forget the part where he can't dunk anymore). At this point, if Ron doesn't stop this madness, i'd rather play the injured T-Mac.

    I don't think Ron is selfish, just extremely overconfident. He gets in a mode were he thinks he has to make the shot for the Rockets, because no one else will be able to. That is why he is totally different on the court than off, he really gets into the game, and that effects his decisions.

    Well, at least Francis looked good when he was dribbling the ball away.
    And T-Mac just holds the ball forever before he shoots.

    Artest just looks out of control. I'm impressed he doesn't turn the ball over more than he does.
