    Do any of you guys have any post game quotes. I usually love to read those, and hear players and coaches from both sides. Thanks in advance.

    What a blast tonight's game was especially in person. From when I hit the red carpet to when I left the game, it was awesome. The Rowdies really did a good job of getting the fans excited and pumped before the game. The new PA announcer was pretty good, and the starting lineups were pretty sweet with everybody having the red glowsticks.

    Great way to start out the game with the 12-0 run, and it was all Rockets. Yao is just flat out the most unstoppable scorer in the league. You get him the ball and all he has to do is turn and shoot, and he is damn near automatic. He was putting up those numbers the whole second half of last season, I don't see why he won't average 31 or so a game and 10 rebounds.

    The team played great defense overall, even though we were getting raped by the officials. Dallas used to kill us posting up Stackhouse and others on our small backcourt. They couldn't jo jack against Battier and Snyder. Battier was very good defensively and he played Dirk very well.

    And what can you say about Rafer Alston, 2 rebs away from a triple double. Hitting his threes, distributing, didn't turn it over at all.

    But the whole game had a cloud over it because of the familiar sight of T-Mac going to locker room, coming back out, playing a few minutes, leaving with the hands on the hips and sitting on the bench with the towel around his shoulder. It's pretty evident that Tracy is hurt again, he probably was never healthy. He can't even shhot free throws. Not having McGrady playing well is going to hurt this team, regardless of the depth.

    I know EXACTLY what you're talking about. I HATE HATE HATE HATE those people! WTF are they doing there then? Sit down and cheer with a cut of tea? PFFFT...

    I'm sorry you had to sit in front of one of those. They should have another set of rowdies in front of the expensive seats so those crappy fans will have to stand up.

    Oh man.. don't say that. That's a really scary thing to say. I hope TMac is alright. If he gets injured again, I hope it has nothing to do with the back.. or else I'll be in denial the whole season.

    I hope it was just a lack of motivation since his teammates were spectacular tonight. He'll be back when the Rox are down.

    Everything went so well - can't be happier :D :D :D :D :D

    Still, one thing to wish for: Wish we had gotten Cato.
    O well, we just have to pray hard that Yao stays healthy: There is no backup plan for Yao.

    This was my first Rockets game, and I had an amazing time. My section (403) was loud all game, and the standing ovation for Bonzi was great.

    Highlight of the game: Deke shouting "AMINA" in his cookie monster voice :D

    You guys are so lucky to be able to watch the game in TC. As a fan in Canada, I have to say, that's a heck of a game! Alston is amazing! I love his AND1 stuff in the 4th quarter. His shooting is not terrible any more. Man! He is the right point guard Rox needs.

    And YAO! Yao is a monster! How can such a big guy has such a great touch!!! With the help from Rafer, he now can deal with front defence now. Other team just have to double team Yao now. That gives role players like Snyder, Head and Novak so many good chances! And they didn't disappoint us!

    Snyder is such a good weapon for fast break! He is definitely a finisher! He is exactly what Rockets needs. Young, fast and athletic!

    All in all, really look forward to more Rox game.
