    I'm stuck at work(as usual) and can only follow the game on Yahoo. But considering the Rockets are being outshot, outrebounded, and already have 6 turnovers, yet find themselves down only 2 points has to be a good sign.

    Plus T-Mac and Yao aren't exactly shooting well so far.

    if sura didnt give josh howard an open dunk, bowen didn't thow the ball to the bench, weslen didn't thro the ball behind padgett on a fast break....we would be up 26-22.


    mistakes like that cost us close games: like games 3 and 4.

    Bad play in the 4th quarter cost us that game... not 1st quarter plays (we were actually trailing in the 1st big, in both games).

    James got 3 assists, which is one more than MAvs total assists.

    He is stepping up

    Illegal screen... Yao.... his 1st (to the refs credit, that was pretty obvious... as long as they don't call that in the 4th).

    Notice what JVG did for the team!!! Usually Yao would have 2 fouls by now. He has NONE!!! Now that everyone is watching them, the refs can't blow their whistle as often. It's so obvious they change their calls depending on the media and Stern. Damn you NBA!!!

    JUST TOSS IT UP THERE!

    Haha... Dallas has no defense for that... Yao will have 30 FT's if they continue this type of defense.

    Mcgradys on the bench in foul trouble, Yao has to understand this and stay in the game. That is key right now.
