    Yes he could shoot at the other basket to get us a more convincing defensive rebounding edge.

    Calm down, guys.

    This game is in the bag.

    Rockets can't throw the ball in the ocean from the 3pt land, we're only down 2.

    Houston will right the ship in the 2nd half, just like last game.

    most of the 3s ive seen have been wide open, other than the ones tracy does on the pull-up (but he's allowed). if the guys are wide open i think they SHOULD shoot it, why pass it up ?

    once again, i wasnt worried when we were down 9 at the half last game, and im certainly not worried now. boozer is playing the best he can, we are shooting horribly and still only down 2. i have faith that our shooters will knock down their shots eventually and pull away.

    Only if Yao stays on the court.

    Rockets looked fine, they just need better luck on some of the shots. At least the D and the rebounds are there.

    the way chuck is going it might not be so bad... we might go 2-17 with 15 offensive boards!

    i am not saying Yao is playing bad, but he needs to play as confident as Tmac, come on, you are the allstar player, sent those jazzholes back home with two losses.

    Well, you were saying he was not clutch. I was merely disproving that fact :rolleyes:

    He's horrible? lol. You sound like we already lost the game because of Luther. Make sure you shut your face when he goes 3-6 from 3PT in one of our playoff games.

    Rockets are not choosing to shoot all those 3s.

    Its what Utah is giving them and they have to take it, especially considering Rockets lack drivers to the basket and even Tmac (our only driver) is settling for jump shots.

    This will be the story for Rockets in playoffs.

    Teams will usually settle for Rafer and Battier taking 3s rather than let Yao and Tmac go berserk on them.

    Does that make you feel nervous?

    Luther is being exposed for his lack of skills in the playoffs, team's don't leave him anymore and pressure his dribble....

    He is good during the regular season, but if he can't get open or dribble, or protect the ball, we may need to look elsewhere.

    Pick and roll on one side involving only Yao and Tmac. Double threat attack.

    That does not involve role players.

    Its 2 man isolation.

    Even if they send someone to help, Yao will still get good position.

    I think we need to get Tmac going on some screens...just let him catch and shoot, we need some quick easy points to start the second half.
