    Freaking young PGs... Had a wide open shooter in the corner. Ah, well.

    Only down by 7 even after some atrocious turnovers and poor perimeter defense...

    We have a good chance to win this game

    The point guards will get acclimated, just give it some time guys. Is not the end of the world.

    Just remember that Lowry got to Houston TODAY and he hasn't played one game or practiced with them. I think he's doing a fantastic job.

    that was a boring first half.

    We are lucky to be down only 7pts.

    Yeh I agree... Brooks has struggled keeping control. Lowry at least seems to be able to get the dish out when he knows hes going to get in trouble... although maybe the one to Hayes wasn't wise.

    Yao is hurt, check him out please!

    Winced three times and landed funny right before the half.

    If he is hurt, sit him in the 2nd

    I have to say Lowry has more PG qualities than Brooks.

    Brooks is not a starting PG as I have been saying. Lowry > Rafer > Brooks for STARTERS. Brooks is probably better than both as a player, but we don't need a scorer in the starting lineup. We need someone who can be a floor general, pass-first PG and attack. Kyle Lowry is the answer.

    Did anyone noticed he looks like Jay-z?

    Not bad first half of action. Could be better, but there wasnt definatley some rythm in the second quarter. Figure out the defensive matchups and this is a very winnable game. Loving Lowry, I imagine things will be alot smoother once he knows a bit more about his teamates.

    Go Rox!

    Our season has been done since McGrady hasn't been anywhere close to healthy, and that as the start, and that is really sad to say. If we can't beat the Mavericks tonight, I feel so bad.
