    I just dont see any justification to starting Chuck, Rafer and Battier when we have so much offensive talent on this team. Our bench has plenty of players that could start and give our starting lineup more offensive punch.

    But keep in mind that James did play more than Rafer did.

    Is Rafer your new whipping boy now that Juan is gone?

    Does anyone notice Rafer's body language and motion when he is guarding Williams? It's like he knows he will get abused no matter what, so he just make haphazard random guesses as to which way Williams will go.

    Just hold your ******* position Rafer!

    Williams is definitely in his head.

    There were no Bonzi, MJ and Scola off the bench. Otherwise Rockets would have beat Utah easily. JVG's mistake was put Yao on Boozer instead of Okur.

    what did you expect about the refs? too bad it's yao that's getting the brunt.

    daaaaaamn tmac is back no? the problem is he always has good games against the next few teams we play but he didnt play like this last season.

    that dunk... :eek:

    his elevation on the shot... :eek:

    EVEN THE FTS? :eek:

    :D

    I wasn't a member here while u said that so I don't know... but I did see the series and I don't think JVG had a choice... NO ONE else could score so Yao had to be in the game or else we would've been blown out badly.. but I agree... Yao doesn't do so well and now we can hold him out and still score.

    Who do you want to be the spark plug off the bench, Rafer/Hayes or James/Scola? There's your answer.

    At this rate, we might even see Francis in the next game.

    I expect Scola to move to the starting lineup much quicker if he can stay out of foul trouble.

    we gotta have some offense w/ the 2nd unit. unless james starts for rafer and francis replaces rafer, then i keep hayes in.

    he's playing great D on boozer.
