    actually, all 3 of scola's 3rd quarter fouls weren't on defense. an offensive foul and 2 loose ball fouls i think.


    man, that was a very nice run to end the 3rd. just the opposite of the 2nd. and did they just say we're 17-0 with a lead after 3 on the road? that's fairly amazing.

    This is what we were doing during the streak, great defense and a couple transition buckets

    it comes from defense and hustle - the things that generated our streak. if we play defense, we will win against most teams and have a chance to win v. the best teams.

    Not out of nowhere, those plays are coming out from our defense...if the rockets regain their defense they are an incredible team!

    Man, I loved that line. "Houston took this game by the throat AND squeezed!" Such a graphically overpowering description.

    Here is to hoping they keep it up in the 4th.

    yeah something tells me that the knee isn't right.

    i'm sure he was almost back to normal when he returned form the injury due to a very good first game back, but since then it's been down hill. looks like it's going to be a nagging injury through the rest of the year.

    he needs a few more weeks to rest it and now is not the time.

    His inability to jump as high as normal really takes away most of his game.

    What's funny is i would like to say that tmac/bobby/battier made that run great but it was more so some stupid decision by McMillan to put Aldridge on McGrady. That was a mistake.

    if tmac just gets 2-3 calls that any regular star would get, he would be in a good rhythm more often. c'mon refs, give the dude some calls.

    Phenomenal finish, we gave up at the start of the 3rd but now a great finish.

    Tracy is just the man, he was 1-5 to start and now he is 5-6 2/2 from 3pt line. I hope he will attack the whole 4th and he will keep it up, he will find his calls around the rim.

    Defense, we can outplay Blazers every time we want.
