    damn, Hayes starting C again!

    Surely this isnt going to continue into the RS if Yao is out any longer than hoped for/incurs another injury.

    Our big man situation is a farce.

    Cant wait again!! Is this game being shown on sopcast??

    a few clutchfans told me about SopCast and everyone who uses it has given positive feedback on it but for some reason i cant get it to work When i open it and click the channel that i want a error message comes up saying "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The file is either corrupt or the player does not support the format you are trying to display" Im guessing that its a codec issue but i know near to nothign about computers and was wondering if anyone could give me any tips on how to correct the error. Im a pretty desperate Rockets fan from Australia and need a source to watch the games from. So any help would be great!!

    Thanks, Matt.

    Chuckie did a good job against 7'2" Big Jake....what are you afraid of?

    Dont let his meager 6'6" height fool you...he plays much bigger than that.

    dude...I think you like to be negative just for the hell of it...cause I dont see any just cuase in alot of your comments.

    i am hoping our bench guys perform better this time around. honestly chances are we will lose the hawks and other loser teams tend to play starters heavy minutes in preseason because they actually need the practice to get better and gel. the second half i expect there to be a huge disparity in talent level and the hawks probably will win

    If I'm up, I'll try and catch the play by play radio from NBA.com and appear in the chat room to see whats happening, look forward to a big win for the Rockets with the rookies showing some class, atleast more then they did in the 2nd half against the Grizzlies.

    JLIII and Billy own the second half, Novak hits 3 threes and shows more of the IQ we are looking for, and Snyder throws a nasty one down.

    Go Rockets.

    on that note does anyone know what hayes' wingspan is? it certainly seems like it is 7 ft or something very long for his height. it would be pretty sweet to see hayes bulk up like ben wallace he would really be a monster on the boards then...but i doubt that will happen.

    If you have a standard pair of rabbit ears, the signal on KNWS-51 will be much better picking it up over-the-air then watching on TimeWarner or Dish. At least it is for me. Just an FYI for anybody that cares.
