    Yao was forced to sit out 3 quarters, our team was forced to operate differently for 3 damn quarters.

    We did fine for 2 quarters, but the Refs just wouldn't stop, our whole game plan had to change, but we couldn't adjust to foul trouble like that. The rockets weren't prepared for foul trouble.

    I wouldn't say half-assing it. It's more like 1/8th assing it.

    Seriously. McGrady has disgusted me tonight, starting with not trying a SLICK on defense. It's 4 on 5 when he's out there, and I'm usually a homer for this guy.

    This game is not over despite the atrocious refereeing. Cavs are 1 foul away from being in the penalty. Yao and the Rockets need to continue to be aggressive.

    Don't day dream, man, with refs defending Yao, you can't go through Yao. :(

    47% say Z is the best center. And the commentators say it matter-of-factly.
