    My speculation was that we're using Swift to showcase him for the Knicks (Texas Stroke pointed out it might also be cause it's on national TV). Either way, showcasing to get SS outta here.

    No big deal if we're winning...but we def. can't lose at that expense

    That three point, in fact, 5 points and 2 fouls swing is just too big at the end of the half. Then, Tracy got too caught up with the quick shots. Well, we should and must and will win this game.

    considering the officials have practically trademarked giving yao a foul anytime he's even close to that circle thing, calling an offensive foul against him when someone is not only moving, but in the damn circle, is just horrendous.

    Is JVG trying to give this game away to his Knicks or what? I hope McGrady shows up in the second half. I can't believe Woods is doing a great job on him. The Rockets should be blowing out the Knicks by now. The Rockets better be up by double digits at the end of third or this game could be lost. :mad:

    Yao will be 20+ PPG if he gets 21 today. Hope his rebound figure improves to 10+ some time later this season

    After seeing the disparity between McGrady's home numbers vs his road numbers, I'm thinking they should make him move into a hotel in Houston. :D

    Wesley just made a run all by himself.

    Way to go Wes.

    That's why we need both T-mac and Yao.

    Our defensive rotation is very poor. The Knicks are getting easy shots. T-Mac and Wesley fortunately have kept us ahead so far but it's getting tougher.

    Tmac is feeling it!!

    Jalen Rose looks like the Jalen of old. I always knew he could play if he applied himself, he wasn't happy in Toronto.

    if we are showcasing swift we are doing a bad job, it seems like its all starters.

    Yao has been settling for the fadeaway and jumper far too much since the 1st quarter... and its hurting the team.

    He needs to get close to the basket... as much as he has the skills to be a jump shooter, its really not his true game.
