    Nope, first we didn't have Landry and Scola to rebound and second NO does not have Okur to bother Yao.

    No but the Rockets made the mistake of thinking like that - i.e. looking towards the next round when they hadn't closed out the series yet. Idiotic. Fans who think like that are likewise idiotic.

    this is awesome.

    we've held on to the lead through most of the 3rd... not just held on but extended it.

    now lets keep it up in the 4th!

    the rockets allways scare me in the 4th.

    Anyone else annoyed with the PA announcer doing a Ric Flair "whoooooo" every time CP3 scores? What the **** is up with that?

    uh, did we have landry finishing around the rim last yr? did we have scola last yr to match up with okur? did rafer play like this last yr?

    tmac and yao could have played better but they did their part for the most part. the role players were just awful.

    if tmac and yao even played the same way last yr and we have this group of role players, we would beat the jazz in 5 or 6.

    haha, good point. No stutter steps for the guys in the red, but if you play for the hornets, 5 step allowed.

    well, we did not have Landry and Scola for that series. Rockets are much better at the 4 now.

    This game shows that the "bad" trade the Rockets made may have been genius all along. Man AB has hit the wall hard. Alston can't play 48 mins every game and MJ wasn't the man. SF got hurt so a good vet PG, no matter how old is what this team really needs.

    Screw that. These guys aren't the #1 team for nothing. Put them away.

    I was/am a fan of JVG, but I think Aldeman is better at creating matchup problems so hopefully we wont be out-coached this year!
