    That is no excuse for not playing the bench. If JVG would've groom the bench throughout the season crap like this could be avoided.

    battier- 29
    hayes- 30
    mcgrady- 37

    THANK YOU JESUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was seriously hurt when T-Mac went down. I am too involved with this team....

    How the hell do we blow a 25 point lead? For real...we need to stop blowing these damn leads.

    How come these million dollar coaches can't figure out that when ya need FT's to ice a game, just throw it up to the 7'5 dude who just so happens to be the best shhooter on the team. Are the coaches idiots, or is Yao to blame for never wanting to take the freebies???

    Crikey!

    WTH happened. I look at the score online in the 3rd quarter and we're up more than 20 and I check it again with 8 seconds to go and we're hanging onto a 2 pt lead. :confused:

    Ok, forget everything you've witnessed for the last 2 hours.

    50-win season!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Who would've thought this after Yao went out? Team deserves major props in spite of this evening.

    Yes he should, if he hadn't the Rockets have to inbound at the baseline, and it's almost impossible to get the ball to Yao there. Much easier to move hte ball to the halfcourt line where Yao can operate easier and get fouled.

    McGrady, Yao, and the starters shouldn't even have been in there with 5 minutes left if the Rockets could have held onto or extended their 25 point lead! Bah ...

    The Rockets really have a ability to turn a loose game into a close one. Great!
