    Artest gotta take it to the rim. All the j*zz will do is fall down all around him and he'll get layup's.

    take Ronny out the game and make him realize this and we win.

    He'll heat up, . . . hopefully. But 9 shots in the first quarter is waaaaay too much

    Ha, it's like they build off the momentum of a bad call. If you ever notice a play where Yao or anyone on the Rockets gets hammered and there's no call, they almost always seem to go down and hit a 3, or get a big basket.

    On that note, game is being ref'd pretty well so far.

    I hate the j*zz so much that its literally hard to watch this game cause I can't stand to look at their faces. This is where you superstar (Yao) needs to step up !! So far Artest is not on but its early !!!!!!!!!!

    Wafer was fouled. Artest jacks up WAY too many shots. He needs to do what Okur did and go back inside and work his way out.

    they were all jumpers too, did artest forget all the damage he did to the spurs posting up and taking it to the hole?

    Off?? Off is his team who ignores him.

    Artest & Wafer again can't pass the ball. That's how we lost with them.

    We need to stop settling for jumpers and attack them. Utah likes to foul a lot and the only way we are going to take advantage of this is if we attack towards the basket. The other thing that we need to look out for is second chance points. We've done good job of not allowing second chance points so far and we need to continue doing that.

    Exactly. I do this in my backyard all the time. If I'm missing long range jumpers, I always mix in layups or putbacks around the basket.

    Lowry had the advantage last year by driving and always getting fouled
    he needs to do that again

    36% and only down two gotta take it. The Rockets will be in this game throughout let us hope it turns out as a W in the end.

    Here's a fun game to play: spot a black or mexican in the Utah crowd.


    Let's just say that I have lost.

    hey man, ive argued that tactic around here for a couple weeks, now.
    most folks around here will call you nuts.
    i agree tho...bench him when hes out of control...just enough time to let him 'think about it'.
