    Novak's shooting is great but he hasn't been so great elsewhere. He's got a lot to learn in terms of passing and defense.

    I'm sure he'll get there though, its just preseason

    T-Mac will be Novak's best friend by the end of the season.

    Oh, and JVG, I don't want to see T-Mac on the court the 2nd half, I am already convinced...he's in mid-season form.

    I'm just repeating what others have said, but Steve Novak has played very poorly in this game, outside of his three pointers. Porous defense, no rebounding, poor passes. He's not going to be a rotation player if he doesn't improve in those areas.

    You can tell Gay is trying too hard, forcing most of his shots. One can see why there was so much hype surrounding him. He's long and quick for size. If he can ever develop a consistent shot he'll be a really tough matchup. I'm happy with Battier and our team in general for now though.

    Novak's job will be to spread the floor for Yao and Tmac and make shots, he is going to be fine.

    No problem here.

    I am not sure, maybe it is a codec issue? Maybe it is a firewall issue? Check everything.

    Dang that McGrady behind the back pass to Hayes was SICK. I can't believe he missed it, he's in the freaking NBA.

    1. i'm impressed with hayes at the 5
    2. novak and padgett should be the backup fowards!
    3. tmac looks great.

    on the -

    1. snyder looks to be struggling
    2. jacobson needs to make a difference somehow if he wants to make the team.

    Rockets need a new pair of announcers, If I had a nickel for everytime Glyde said "consummate" and "professional" in the same sentence I'd be rich by now.

    Also did anybody hear Worrell towards the end?

    "Last year was a season from heck!

    damn anyone see tmacs face after the 2nd quarter while walking to the locker room? He said "****" and was walking off like something was bothering him.
