    Well, TMAC drove and made something happen. Yao to the line.

    the good thing, mac is not looking frustrated and not forcing shots. that's the good thing.

    he'll get out of this eventually right? ;)

    Yao got us close, and these past few possession, the team is really going away from Yao until that last McGrady possesion.

    If the refs officiate Yao like this, which is the right way, for the rest of the playoffs, the Rockets are going to win the whole thing.

    Seriously, even Yao has this look of astonishment, like hes saying 'yall are actually going to give me a fair shake now. Cool. '

    Utah is flopping so much that its almost comical. Good thing the refs aren't putting up with that bullsht that they got away with during the regular season.

    fisher is such a tough matchup for tmac because tmac can't drive past him.

    fisher forces tmac to shoot jumpers and honestly, unless he's hot, he's a bad jump shooter.

    Just curious, would Rafer's 2 point FG% count as one of those 'capabilities'?

    refs are calling it tight right now, we gotta keep feeding yao and getting him to the line.

    Problem is, all this flopping will work in Salt Lake City. So Rockets better not drop any home games.

    Our D is very physical on Williams, which is nice to see.

    True. T-Mac with 1 point, the team is shooting 31%, yet we're only down 4.

    Rafer's 2 pt FG% can be renamed his Teardrop %, and that isn't really high.

    when they D the pass to Yao, our Guards need to shot some 3s.

    Yup yup. Add to the fact that Tmac doesnt have a post up game and this is a bad matchup unless Tmac heats up from outside.

    The way to kill Fisher would have been via post ups.
