    Right now Tracy is playing really well. That's the only positive side.

    Man they have had 22 ft attempts

    Expect them to miss some shots and it will be a close game at end. We are playing fine.

    Man, they are hitting everything so far... 76 % fg percentage and over 90% ft? Some of it is because of matchup problems, but man they are hitting some tough shots as well. Playing like this, there isn`t any team in this league they wouldn`t beat.

    Let`s see if they can keep it up in the second half, but even if not, I can`t see them missing so many shots, that we come back into this game. Although our offense was alright.

    Amare took Scola to school. I don't want to see that in the 2nd half.

    Maybe it was just the streak but I havent been paying much attention to the Suns recently. I kind of wrote them off after the first 5 of Shaqs games.

    I never thought I'd say this, but the trade actually makes them better for the playoffs (if Shaq can play at this level). Which team in the west has 2 quality interior defenders to guard them at the same time?

    ITs too bad for them Shaq is too old and can't bring it at this level every game.

    We are down 17 at the break. Hell no, we aren't playing fine. They are getting whatever they want offensively. It's not like their just hitting tough, contested shots.

    Well, at least it isn't a cliff hanger, but you know what, it would not surprise me if the Rockets come back and beat them. Crazier things have happened.

    Surely they won't continue to make 78% of their shot...even if they are playing with no defense making 78% for an entire match is unbelievable! Rockets are too short inside but Amare will miss a jumper if he continues to shoot the j...I believe we can do something tonight ;)

    Well you can't say fine. The offense is working pretty well, T-Mac got his rythm. But defensivly? There was no defense, 75%, I still can't belive

    Worst half of defensive basketball all year. We gave them 22 freethrows. Is it necessary to reach in on every posession? I guess this is our new defensive the slaphappy.

    Right, Novak will be able to play better defense on Stoudamire.

    In other news, Hornets just beat Celtics 113-106.
    NO is now #1 seed.

    Things are looking rather grim for the Rocks. At this rate I wonder if they will even make the playoffs.
