    T-Mac with two consecutive mistakes on that position...He's cold tonight

    EDIT: And the turnovers machine has started...

    Someone needs to tell Yao that when you put your hands up, you lean straight up, not forward and bump the shooter and get a foul called on you...

    I agree.. also is'nt it plainly evident the yao, Swift partnership seems to be more cohesive then with howard?.. yao is looking way better with Swift. swift has his back on defense.

    Why does Olokowandi look like a homeless chump despite making millions?

    They did not just ask that trivia question. When was the last time Houston won a playoff series?

    Totally agreed. We should see more Swift Yao combo, electrifying combo.

    Unbelievable. 3 TOs in a row, 6 points plus 2 fouls.

    Swift goes off and the side crumbles.

    Hell, I'm mad because it wasn't called on KG! :mad:
    And that second foul on Yao at the 3 minute mark was total BS. I will now return to self-flagellate myself watching TV with LP. :(

    I think so yes, but it wasn't the case early on in the season when Howard was hitting, but now that Swift is playing better, I am sure JVG will realize that and give him more PT with Yao or Deke (he seems to be better with both IMO).

    Back to the game...

    McGrady just had a very forgetable last 3 minutes in the quarter, he just looks awefully cold and out of sync on the court tonight, not sure why.

    Where is the supposed poise in this team?.. where is the leadership?.. howard is getting on my nerves.

    Swift goes out, Garnett sees Howard on him and his eyes light up. When Howard isnt making that top of the key jumper, he is as good as a pack of Dentyne gum to the Rockets, if not worse.

    What happend to TMAC with all the T/Os? Also, why is Barry so hesitant at passing to Yao now? He used to be really good at it, but now it looks like to he has to measure for 3 seconds before he passes it :confused:

    I'm having serious doubts about Yao.. I think he'll have plently of great moments in his career, but he will always be recognized as a streaky player (Big Z like)
