    What's with the Rockets bypassing so many layups to kick it outside? Weird.

    Damn, what a sucky way to end the first half. Trailing by 3 we better step it up in half number 2. I'm heading to get a bite but will be back before the start of the second half. GO ROCKETS!

    if we can't create a large lead without both howard and turkolo on the court, i dont think we cna't beat the magic in the second half. :mad:

    I'm still trying to figure out how has Brent Barry earned minutes over Von Wafer this season?

    Damn it, had to give up that 3 at the end...Too bad.

    We start clicking, that is a great news. Offense looks very well.

    But defense is pathetic, it was especially in the 2nd quater. Gotta damn PUT A HAND IN THEIR FACES

    not quite understand why Tmac left the last chance to the Magic, with 20 seconds left, just shoot a jumper? :confused:

    The Magic are such a horrible team.

    They are based around contested 3 point shots, yet they get lucky enough to hit them.

    Apparently we play better when Howard's on the court. So no worries? :confused:

    I really question Artest's IQ at times and why did T-mac take that three ?
    Why are we behind when Howard hasn't been effective and Hedo is out ?
    We're in the top 5 of:
    - ugliest offense
    - low IQ players
    - players who make the most touch fouls
    - centers who get their shots blocked
    - having a stupid coach
    - ineffective offense
    - help defense
    - terrible decision making
    - having the most women on the team

    why we're behind?

    1) barry played. dude is 0-4 and really killed us b/c if he made some of his shots, the momentum would have been ours. he literally killed us out there.

    2) 3pt defense. we're the best 3pt defense team and they're shooting 42% from 3s. gotta put a hand up.

    we're fine. yao and tracy are doing a good job of keeping us in there while some of the role players are struggling right now and the defense is non-existent. just gotta play better D and we should win.

    Good first half though...some really kinda sketchy choices though (Barry playing more minutes then Landry, Yao not playing for a really long time etc. etc.)...and the Rockets may have gotten a bit lucky when it comes to fouls on Yao and Dwight. Still, solid effort by everyone.
