    rafer and his damn floaters.....I don't remember seeing him make one of them. I consider those as a turnover. :)

    What a coach! Let Yao play extended min in the 3rd and beginning of 4th quarters, then bench him in the end. So Yao will never play the crunch time! Good!

    yeah, but he would give up 20pts to the guy he guards. The team seems to play better D without TMac.

    I think dementia is kicking in for those announcers.

    Its frustrating because this game is right there for the taking. Guys are gonna have to play smarter and tighten up the D.

    I don't like that dude either but you kinda took that out of context.

    He was saying it was impossible to guard that shot. It's up to Yao to make it because no one can guard that shot.

    Last offensive possession of the third quarter gives me little hope (Rafer's teardrop) for the rest of the game.

    These ticky tack shooting fouls called in favour of Boston is robbing the Rockets by about 6 pts or more.

    Brooks is horrible, too. Why is he not yanked after something like that.

    really? 60% to the hawks?
    50% to the celts?

    both on backs to backs?

    yes, they do play better D without tracy. your standard of better defense is high.

    That is the only positive. We still have a chance. However, we need to drastically change our tactics.
    Alston needs to use his brain and Brooks needs to sit. WHen his shots do not fall his crap is exposed.
