    The Nuggets are shooting 60%, have a 16 to 6 free throw advantage and are out rebounding the Rockets. If it weren't for the turnovers, the Rockets would be in trouble. I haven't seen Kenyon Martin play this well in a long time.

    It does not matter.

    Did you see the block Yao did on KMart in the first? Clearly all ball...not even close. Salvator who could not even see the play called a foul on Yao. Other end of the court Denver rakes Yaos arms as he tries to shoot and no call.

    Just examples in this game.

    In the LA game stats showed Houston had scored just as many popints in the paint as LA but did not get half of the free throws as LA

    bullard said it. if yao was getting those same fouls called on his side of the court he'd get 20 free throws a game. call it on both ends.

    It took Battier some years, but he finally realized he can drive baseline when they're playing him close.

    don't blame the refs. This kind of defense won't win Rox many games.

    Our defense is so horrendous. We're a layup line now.

    This is just pathetic. I mean how many dunks and layups are they going to allow?

    This game would literally kill Jeff Van Gundy. I haven't ever seen this many layups in the Toyota Center.

    I don't care what the offense looks like now.

    I don't care who is injured out there.

    This is lottery-bound defense.

    wafer just got hammered directly in front of the refs.

    adelman just stands there while our defense gets abused by the same exact play 5 times in a row. that's embarrassingly bad coaching.
