    VERY rusty Yao out there. And even more rusty D on Josh Howard

    Hell, Yao just committed his 4th foul. I guess we won't see him play again until late 4th quarter.

    McGrady looks HORRIBLE out there, can't shoot, can't hit free throws, can't get to the rack...he looks disinterested.

    Ugly, ugly game. The entire Rockets' starting lineup is out of sync or disinterested in this game for whatever reason. Yao is hardly breathing out there...he doesn't have his legs back yet, it will take a few more games/training sessions to regain his old conditioning form.

    The bright spots are Baklava, Head, and Snyder playing well.

    It's cool, just a pre-season game.

    I believe I saw #2 Head on him. Then the last possession I saw #1 Tmac on him, so i'm not sure, maybe a loose zone D?

    Yeah I'm sure it's a 3-2 zone. They are kind of penetrating at will tho. Not too effective.

    Looks like they were working on a zone for much of the game...

    and the zone looks like it needs much work.

    McGrady is struggling at the FT line...the whole team really is. Of course, we're missing lots of outside shots as well, so it's just an overall bad shooting night for the Rox.

    Everybody is still trying to adjust to yao... It will be a process. It is also the first game we've played against a quality team. It will take time. As much as I want them to do well now, and feel disgusted with the way we're playing at times. We have to be patient.
