    Only TMac is acting as a playmaker now. Sura obviously believes that he is poor man's Kobe and just keeps shooing. That kind of star spirit certainly caught Howard off guard and he is now acting that he is poor man's KG. There is no shot that he does not like.

    On a night that Yao clearly dominates, he got the least shots attempts among starters.

    Name Min FG
    T. McGrady 30 5-14
    J. Howard 26 4-11
    Y. Ming 21 6-6
    D. Wesley 27 4-8
    B. Sura 30 5-11

    We're leading by 12 heading into the 4th and people are still complaining about Yao's shot attempts.

    Do we even need that? I see us being able to get any shot against this paper-thin Orlando defense.

    Its Francis and his uncanny ability to seemingly walk in for a layup, un-touched, that I'd be more worried about.

    this game would've been better if everyone but francis, turkoglu, and hill for about a half hadn't forgotten to get off the team bus and play like they have a pair. you expect this from orlando on the road, but orlando at home?


    and how yao got one freakin shot in the 3rd is beyond me. though i guess with the lead increasing can't complain too much.

    Save your words. I am a fan, can a fan judge a public player? Who give you the right to judge what I am talking?

    I'm not judging... its just that you said that Sura cares more about stats than a victory... when its clearly obvious that his near triple double is a big reason why we have a double-digit lead on the road.

    Thus, I thought you were joking... I guess not.

    Dangerous time and Gumpy took both Yao and TMac out of the game. If we lose this game, fire JVG and trade Sura!

    I like how when the Rockets are losing and Yao isn't getting touches, all the YOHs blame Yao for not getting touches. Now that the rockets are winning they want people to shut up that Yao isn't getting touches. Then the YOHs go on to say that this rockets team was built around Yao and that Houston's woes are due to Yao not putting up numbers. Gotta love the hypocrisy.

    Trade Sura because:

    A: He's 5-11 for 15 points.

    B: 8 rebounds from a PG

    C: 8 assist

    D: I don't know what I'm talking about, but I love Yao
