    scoring more than 0 points in the 4th might help... were not asking to do everything, but score atleast 2 pts in the 4th :mad:

    do the rafer haters see that we're not better off without him? not that rox would win tonight, but they definitely would have had a better chance.

    Against the team the fouls the most in the NBA (the Jazz), we have to take advantage of that. Unfortunately, we have players like Scola, TMac, etc. who can't even shoot 70%. Most decent high school players shoot > 70% from the line ... it is just practice.

    Tracy was great for 2 3/4 quater and since than he's been slowed down. We have made several mistakes in a rown and now we see rhe results.

    But we should say thank you to Bobby, Luther, Aaon and the whole bench. They PLAYED GREAT

    DAMN IT

    Rafer wouldn't have changed anything. We lost because we allowed them to muscle us around down low and we couldn't execute on layups and free throws.

    Any team that *relies* on Rafer is done. It is like relying on Chuck (I'm useless on offense and only mediocre on defense) Hayes.

    we shouldve left Motumbo in when he wanted to stay that was a turning point.

    dallas would take the rockets easily and did you see the suns today?? houston would have no chance vs them either.
