    T-MAC'S TEAMATES NEED TO STEP UP.

    RAFER'S BEEN DOING A COMMENDABLE JOB...BUT WE'LL GET OBLITERATED LATER BECAUSE T-MAC WILL GET DOUBLED ALL GAME AND GET TIRED and Rafer can't carry the team...right?

    PLEASE Houston Rockets outside of T-Mac/Rafer...STEP IT UP.

    Hey, look on the bright side, Lakers lost and Spurs lost, we're playing the team with the best record in the league on their home court, and we don't have Yao. Is anyone going to be terribly, terribly disappointed if we lose? Not really, unless we get completely blown out. It's Friday, people- time to party!

    That is the only thing I don't like about Battier. His offense game is so limited.

    The Rockets would be winning if they could hit layups.

    Tmac, Hayes, Synder, Howard all missed wide open shots inside of 1 foot.

    Good 1st half for us. We reduced the game to basic slop, which is why we only trail by 4 despite everyone besides Tracy shooting 10/33.

    Off topic: Did someone see how the Spurs lost? It must have been spectacular. Also, the Lakers lost a close one in Toronto.

    I don't see it that way. They are still playing lock-down D and getting good shots. They will stay in the game and have a good chance to pull it out.

    Snyder is definitely rusty. Went up for a dunk and just didn't get a grip on it. Seems short on a lot of stuff, but nevertheless has a ton of athleticism. Very useful on the defensive side.

    Were down 4 and our bench is 1-9. We need some help - It hurts bad losing to the Mavs :(

    Yea i was kinda expecting a performance like that...oh well. I guess we have to give it a few games before he's up and running on full cylinders.

    Thanks for the heads up.

    The odds are heavily against us, yes, but this is the NBA...any team can be beat on any given night.

    Moreover, the way this game is going, it might only take one guy outside of T-Mac/Rafer stepping up big to get us over the hump.

    This game would be a GREAT confidence booster if we win, and I don't think anyone would be too disappointed if we lose as long as the effort is there.

    Regardless, we can never know just how good this team stacks up against the "Best in the West" unless we have Yao and Bonzi out there playing.

    At least we crushed them mercilessly early in the season with Yao out there. :)

    By the way, Hubie Brown just gave us props on ESPN (Miami/Cavs game), said Houston, Spurs, and Jazz will bet "teams to watch" in the playoffs, that you can't count them out just yet.

    I hope Battier,Howard and Head can score more in the second half to make things easier for T-Mac.

    If we win this game (I wish), will we tie with Spurs in the standing, or overtake them?

    I got to see the end of the Spurs game DHoward had an inbound allyoop pass for a Dunk to win the game with .02 left on the time clock. It will be on ESPN as one of the top 10 plays of the night.

    Guys...

    Lets look at the positive!

    Our defense is SO GOOD...(EVERYBODY!)

    (How good is it?)

    Its so good that without the best center in the league, we are shutting down quite possibly the best team on paper in the NBA!!! Shuttem DOWN!

    I love this team! Wait til the Big Guy comes back!
