    MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!

    Franchise came through in a big way when it counts. A lot of you can say that he delivered something that really means something because he's going to taste the second season for the first time. We can throw all the "playoff scenarios" and Magic Number to Clinch" threads to the archives, because we're in for the first time in the 21st century.

    I'm astonished and delighted. Steve was fantastic. It was his best performance in such a crucial game. Congrats to the Rockets.
    I hope we will knock the Jazz out!
    We are finally on our way to the playoffs!

    Finally, finally, finally. What a long and twisted road this has been. I don't know if I really believe it has actually happened. I have often been critical of Steve Francis' game (and I am sure I will be again), BUT this night he was the man, he came up big and he deserves the credit. JJ has been special all season. You guys scared us to death, but congradulations to the PLAYOFF-BOUND HOUSTON ROCKETS!!!:)

    BOOM! Playoffs baby!

    Well the first half was tough to watch, but the 2nd half was amazing. Francis was incredible.

    The Toyota Center was rocking like I've never heard and the 200 level suites are awesome.

    :D

    I'm proud of him. I've been critical of Steve, and I'm still not sure he's right for this team, but he deserves a ton of credit for this win. If he played anywhere near this level on a consistent basis, we'd be hard to beat. Yao had another off night. But if both are on, not many teams can keep up.

    ESPN again seems so biased against the Rox.

    On the highlights at halftime of Kings and Suns, they showed 3 plays of the Rockets game:

    1. Francis turning the ball over near the sideline.

    2. The play where Denver tips the ball 3-4 times before Nene puts it in.

    3. The last play when Miller steals the ball and puts up the 3 at the buzzer.

    I'm still pumped that we won.

    agreed.

    :eek: I can't believe my eyes. Look Francis...is he our 'FRANCHISE' I've ever know?! Our backcourt duo bail Rox out!

    well, Yao disappear in the game. He seemed kinda nervous in the game. It maybe has something to do with his coach Li Qiuping who sat in the low stand watching him :p
