    Haha good one :p The new Rocket's offense is ball-hogging until we start picking and rolling. We could've used Mike James right now, he's perfect for this offense. How about some Steve Francis, he loved to dribble 20 seconds and shoot at the last second. :D

    That halftime reporter is really ripping us apart.

    1. Ball movement is nonexistant.
    2. Player movement is nonexistant.
    3. Poor shooting , 38% so far this season.
    4. Poor defense.

    Yao is back to normal, so TMAC goes to sleep again. That's not bad actually.

    in other news, spurs and suns lost, the pistons lost with ai in his debut, and the hakws are still undefeated by beating the raptors with a convincing victory. Also, the hornets lost :D

    They missed about 4 plays where Yao got hacked or pushed on both ends.

    Yao came to play tonight.

    Landry having a strong game.

    Scola was a beast out of the gates. It's nice to have some depth so guys are rested on back-to-backs.

    Still not enough movement on offense.

    I'm waiting for a Big Yao explosion (in a good way-ie 30 points, 10 rebounds).



    Still waiting........

    I bet its been quite a few years since the last time the hornets/spurs/suns all lost on the same night.

    You mean another 30/10, right? He already put one up in the 1st 5 games.

    Tmac was looking to give it to luis when scola was hot. he was just being an unselfish teammate. whats wrong with that.

    Its hard to be optimistic about a team who've had five horrificly played games out of their first six.

    I don't think he's talking about the shots but the trend this season to not move w/o the ball.

    Nothing. T-Mac played fine. Some people just want big numbers.

    He just needs to keep moving on both ends of the court. Hopefully, once he is fully healed, we will see more of that. The problem is he has been like this for years. We'll never mistake him for Rip Hamilton.

    Maybe not wrong but 3 shots and 3 jumpers, bad jumpers and he hasn't been agressive. I mean, I don't wanna see him standing out there, I wanna see him being agressive. he is a scorer

    More touches for Yao and Scola in the second half please. Also move the ball and set some picks so Yao can get position in deep, he's getting the ball out too far out. Then we'll take another run like the first quarter and finally let Wafer show what he can do, book it !!!

    They will get better. New team, missing key players, hard schedule...and they still have a winning record. Remember last year when they were under .500? We still won 22 straight after that.
