    I think I could get out there and play better than Cook. I don't get him on any team

    We need to play like it's the last 5 minutes of the 4th quarter NOW- take all THREEs and pressure the ball, hack Lamar Odom, etc.

    Haha, if they could cut the lead, I would stay with the group on the floor. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

    You also said the season was over before game 4. Why don't we let them finish the series before making declarations?

    great points.. that's why i would prefer artest post up and try to make things happen down low rather than jacking up contested jumpers.. we need pg to penetrate to at least force them to work on defense, maybe get their bigs in foul trouble.. k low is really good at drawing fouls.. let's go Rockets!!!

    For rockets, the 2nd half, just play hard basketball,be more patient on offense, play good defense, forget about the score.

    Seconded. I am still hoping for a miracle second half that saw wafer, ron and battier on fire and get us back in the game, but the fact that we just don't have enough body to go to battle with, and we delivered such an ass whooping last game, has made this season great for me.

    25 point lead at the half 19 of those are off of fast breaks.

    No miracle unless we cut out the turnovers and defend the perimeter and the entry pass into the post better

    Plan for the Second Half:

    1. Attack the rack.
    No settling for even open jumpers until they pound them inside.

    2. Stop turning it over.

    Bynum is terrible.

    He tried to dunk that ball from underneath the basket, going up.

    LOL

    That might have been most pathetic post of 2008-2009 season.
