    The best thing from this game: Rocket defense can kick up another notch for playoffs. They are ready.

    TMAC and Yao might not have been spetacular by their normal standard. but this is playoff against a very tough team. Offense doesn't come easy.

    Finally this will be a tough series. Utah is a very tough team.

    Yeah.. Maybe that's why home court is so important. I have
    to agree Yao got some nice calls tonight. And we were lucky
    to win this one. :)

    We as a team need both stars to do well to win, and that worries me just a little bit.

    Tmac IS the X factor. I know what I can expect from Yao but Tracy is a little :confused: sometimes but as we all know, when he's on, he's downright unstoppable, it's just that we never know when he will be on.

    btw, so far in his career Playoff Shane <<<< Regular season Shane.

    Yao was huge for us during this game. He was a consistent presence and played a great game.

    I have a feeling McGrady will be our problem dueing the playoffs. His inability to get going early could be a factor. plus, there is really no support from the others when he is not producing.

    Great win but t-mac is going to have to wake up and play. Next time he tries to prove a point about it being his team and he should be the MVP could result in a loss.

    Great post. Give some to Jeff. I don't know why I still feel he is over coache by fre king sloan. Our O plan is not good it too much count on players' personal ability.

    Good grind it out win for us, especially considering that it looked like our guys were sleep walking in the first half. Let's really beat the crap outta the Jazz on monday and leave them demoralized on the way to Utah.

    BTW, Tmac is AMAZING!!!!!! :)

    Wow this game was great!! Although fishers threes at the end kind of ruined the sweetness.

    Good win rockets, show them that toyota center isnt a place where the jazz should be;)

    What was huge was the Luther Head 3 pointer at the buzzer...
    FIsher missed lay up and Yao going for the dunk to take the lead....
    and at the end ROckets going after 4 OFFENSIVE REBS....
    and the Biggest thing of all was TMAC owning them SUCKAS in the 4th quater baby!!!


    CHEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA LETS GO ROCKETSSSSSS!!!!!
