    Yeah, his ballhandling was terrible, but he looked quicker. He even got past LeBron on one drive (it was then poked away by Hughes as the help side defender, but still). he looked quick, looked active, and seemed to be moving really well. I was impressed.

    Hear hear. They were still solid contributors despite off nights. Our role players stepped up. I couldn't be more happy. Some people's only purpose on these boards is to Yao hate or Mac hate.

    Jazz are blowing off Warriors. Offense vs offense, Jazz are just too efficient and have more varieties and inside scoring than Warriors.

    Celtics and Nuggets are having a close game. Hard to predict on this one. slight edge to the Celtics.

    So, the Rockets are going to be No. 7 tonight.

    It's gotten to the point where I was Rafer to shoot more than T-Mac...

    You guys are nuts. That was a great win. Great team ball, attacking, ball movement, hustle plays, crushing defense.

    It was one of our best games this season.

    Man the Jazz just woke up on them! This is looking like the playoffs last year when Golden State tried to run and the Jazz just proved to be to efficient. It shows you how much the Rockets have improved, to be able to pound the Jazz on the road and almost beat them at home without Yao. Utah is a VERY good team. We need the Jazz to hold on, and for Denver to lose. The further behind the Nuggets are the better the position the Rockets are in.

    Anyone still think Adelman can't coach? 9 in a row and a road win against a decent Eastern team. Like others are saying, we wouldn't win this game last year. Our stars can't hit a bucket to save their lives and our depth takes the game. Too cool.

    I guess Yao has not recovered from the all-stars-weekend yet. I laughed when he missed that easy stupid :D slam dump in the fourth quarter.

    Exactly! A win on the road against a good team. People are crying about the offensive execution yet the Rockets scored 93 freaking points, on the road, on a night both our superstars stunk up the joint offensively.

    Cavs' announcers praised the rockets' defense, and said that is the best defense they see in that building this season! :D

    You are not assuming we are Detroit ;) , Scola wont get as many shot opportunities as T-mac & Yao does, even Rafer.

    And I dont really thing it's a good idea to give Sola many opportunities to play one-on-one. I do not really think he could create his own shots like Yao& T-mac. He is more comfortable with the shot opportunity created by Yao&T-mac. His ability of shooting mid-ranged is better at OPEN spot.


    About the game, WIN is all that matters. 9 in a roll, how sweet. I am expecting 10 winning streak.

    We may freeze the Heat :)

    You mean glass half empty.

    Wow, its 77-64 for the jazz-warriors game at HALFTIME. Super high scoring..
