    Why did Rockets management clone Joey Graham? A Charlie Villanueva clone or Chris Bosh would have been wayyyy better.

    It seems the Vegas trip did help everyone except Yao. So next April let's do it again :D

    I am not against Tmac's taking a lot of shots, but man slow down. We had 10 -12 pts lead with 4-5 minutes to play, there is no need to rush the shots, especially when you are not particularly on rythm.

    Real test starts now. If we win 3 out of next 4, we are back in business.

    Foul trouble? Frankly this game could have been lost if not for Portland's poor FT shooting.

    Damn, this blazer team is bad. I almost fell asleep. Probably the most boring NBA game I've watched in a long time. Even during many of the lead changes in the first half, I didn't sense any excitement.

    MVP of Rox vs Blazers game

    Of course it goes to TMac...but Deke added some D and toughness. The bench did okay. Yao did um...umm...ummmmmmm

    Seems like EVERYBODY was in foul trouble out there...

    Ugly game--at least we came out of there with a win

    Are you going to do this after every game? It's um, kinda trivial, no?

    Investing in the future has nothing to do with it. Trying to win this game does. If Stro's brain stays in the arena, he merits 4th quarter playing time. Hopefully this trend continues, he improves and becomes what we want him to be for this team. My concern is he will start spacing out again later on in the season. Hoping for the best.

    Is this right? We kept the ball for 1:23 straight of the last 3:28?

    (2:05) [HOU 87-77] Swift Tip Shot: Made (11 PTS)
    (2:05) [HOU] Swift Rebound (Off:2 Def:3)
    (2:08) [HOU] Wesley Jump Shot: Missed
    (2:26) [HOU] Mutombo Rebound (Off:4 Def:4)
    (2:27) [HOU] Anderson Jump Shot: Missed
    (2:38) [HOU] Team Timeout: Regular
    (2:40) [HOU] Anderson Rebound (Off:3 Def:3)
    (2:42) [HOU] McGrady Turnaround Jump: Missed
    (2:54) [HOU] Mutombo Rebound (Off:3 Def:4)
    (2:57) [HOU] Anderson Jump Shot: Missed
    (3:28) [POR 77-85] Khryapa Layup Shot: Made (6 PTS)

    That's almost Parcells-like.

    Tmac was the heart and soul of this win...anyone who says otherwise is delusional. :) Yao was a huge disappointment, good lord, has he ever had a worse game? Ugh. Wake up Yao.

    Thanks. he is a monster indeed. if the blazers persist with him and teach him how to play solid defense, he could turnout to be a somewhat descent asset.

    :confused: I don't understand how you could think a 'ummm' is a yao bashing. The dude fouled out in 25 mins. and shot 40%. 1 block, and only 5 boards. HORRIBLE game by Yao...what game were you watching?

    It is. during that period we were attacking the boards like shawn kemp would attack a burger king whooper with cheese burger. it was great to see.

    MVP vote after any Rockets game should exclude TMac, or may be Yao too. We should vote who is the 3rd guy here.
