    I don't think anyone posted it, I don't even know if its on their site, but the Chronicle reported Sunday in their "Rockets Summary" that T-Mac's missing this game and the Dallas game and won't even be evaluated again till Thursday.

    Matt Bullard is a great announcer. He's improved a great deal.

    Anyone else have a terrible picture on Fox SW? The court seems extremely bright, but I think it's just the main camera. The rest of them seem to be fine...but it is killing my eyes.

    This doesn't normally happen so I don't think it's my TV.

    I have to listen to the Hawks broadcasters (who are rather partial to their ex Hawk Mutumbo I might add).


    ps: Lucas for three!!

    Rockets leading after the first 21-20.

    Mutumbo is the workhorse. He had 9pts and 5 boards in the 1st.

    John Lucas just put 'em 23-20 with a smooth stop and pop shot.

    23 all after a Salim Stoudamire triple and 25-23 Atlanta now.

    That dude is a money shooter... I think the Rockets had a lot of interest in him at draft time.

    giving him more rest time doesnt prove that we are "tanking" the season

    Yeah but there is a difference between shooting jumpers in practice and playing all-out full contact in a game. Anyways, if it turns out the Rockets are giving him excessive rest time that would be good IMO.

    I can't see the Rockets being able to Spur-style tank this season given that Yao Ming makes millions for Stern & Co. and is their only real ticket in China. Though given that the Yao-led Rockets are 0-8 without Tracy it may not matter.

    I could see them shutting down Tracy for the year though if they didn't feel like they had a shot to make the playoffs.

    LOL... I was thinking the same thing.

    its not excessive rest,


    T-Mac's quote from Sunday's chronicle


    "I'd like to tell you I'm fine but I'm not........I'm not getting re-evealuted till Thursday, so that's it"
