    I would rather see the following starting lineup against Dallas:

    McGrady (point)
    Yao
    Battier
    Head
    Spanoulis



    Wells, Alston & Snyder should be the first guys off the bench.

    Just feed the ball to Yao and the Rockets will win. If TMac shoots too much, the our Rockets will lose. Yao is the first option, TMac is 2nd fiddle. Go YAO and go ROX!

    Utah just beat the suns in phoenix. well, as i said before, utah is a good side. had we had a better shooting night, we could have won. were not in that bad of form. if tracy gets aggressive and attacks the Rim, we can win and win well.

    The stupid yao homers keep bashing tracy. :rolleyes: . when tracy gets more into it, he will start attacking the rim. when he attacks the rim, there is no player on the planet better.

    Hey stupid TMac nuthugging homer couch potatoe, guess what? Brokeback TMac lost his athletic abilities, he's not the same athletic player anymore. He just just watch more Magic Johnson video clips and study them, and be a playmaker. Feed the ball to Yao and our Rockets will win. If TMac keeps shooting those stupid ugly bricks, we'll lose. The last game, TMac lost the game for us by hogging the ball and shooting those pointless jumpers. (pun intended)

    Just get over it! Yao is the first option for this team, NOT TMac.

    well as much as I hate to, I do have to admit that tmac isn't who he used to be. hell, I'd be surprised to see him be a top 10 player again this year. it's yao's team. it takes 5 baby.

    This is really what i fear in my nightmare too. Quite scary but it can be a reality within a day's time. I dont know why JVG basketball is lacking in confidence and starts off bad all the time..'chemistry' 'intensity' 'teamwork' is preached but the result is what u stated above!
    Phil Jackson? Damon stoudemire, Derek Fisher..these legit studs were all available to the rockets once

    I just got done watching the Cavs game against the Spurs and have to say that Tmac is going to have to play like Lebron did tonight for the Rockets to win against the Mavs.

    But maybe Yao and Synder will bring their A game and it will lift the Rockets to a win over the Mavs, which I think maybe required in the Southwest division.
