    Hey, we're back in the game now, it could be worse.

    Yao is still shooting poorly but at least he's getting to the line, and he's creating for others.

    we need Bonzi, Battier, and James to all play a strong 4th quarter and we could take this one

    Man, I was one of the biggest Mike James supporters before the trade, but his game seems to have really gone downhill since he was with us in 04-05.

    somehow, if Steve Francis were to dribble out the clock like James did, he'd get scolded so much more. it's the Steve Francis double standard.

    So in other words, a Steve Francis TO is a lot worse than say ... A Rafer Alston turnover.

    Mike James is too small to drive into the freaking lane and try to take a fadeaway shot

    when james isn't hitting his shot, he's a detriment to the team.

    where's steve? we need all the scoring we can get and who cares if it's 1-on-1? rather than that than rafer chukcing up shots from yao's double teams.

    You gotta admit though, Steve Francis and even Kirk Snyder finishes those moves more effectively than James.

    And Francis was putting up 20 points, 7 assists and 6 or 7 rebounds to go along with it. Mike James, at this point, is just eating up 24 seconds on a shot clock.

    Great job by the Rox responding in the 3rd...another 'rejuvenated' effort like that and we might just pull this one out at home.

    We're gonna need the Great Wall and the Thick Wall (Bonzi) to really buckle down and pull this one out for the Rox. Oh, and take Rafer out and try to draw more plays for Battier where he's left open for the corner 3...that is your calling card, Rox.

    What kind of a guard is MJ?? :mad: Always shoot first, pass last !! 0 assists, and screwed up those crucial shots/layups.

    75 vs 71....4 points behind entering 4Q.

    The Rockets need to bite their teeth, and grind this out a W without TMAC !!

    That we all know, it's what's the final prognosis we are wondering about.
