    Good job on the passout from Yao to Rafer that ended up in a Rockets 3. Rather have the 3 than have Yao get embarassed by trying to take on Doleac 1 on 1.

    T-mac has a bad vibe out there,no defense, he just looks at his man shoot and then on offense if they don't swing the ball back around to him he has a look of disdain on his face and he trots back down court on defense.

    He's been getting in the lane all game. I don't know how our guards are going to stop him.

    The only Rocket out there playing like there's anything on the line is Scola. This was so predictable. The T-Wolves are on the upswing, trying to win games. They come out in the second looking to play ball. The Rockets coast in the first half to a little lead and come out like zombies in the second half. How many times has this happened?

    Rockets struggling against a mediocre team? Same old, same old. YAo and Mac better wake the hell up.

    He's hiding his heart. Everyone in Clutchfans is wondering where it is and I'm sure the rest of the Rockets are wondering the same thing.

    When tracy play's there is no designated game plan to get Yao the ball, they consistently go away from him.

    yao played balls out and was player of the month for jan dude

    there's no ifs ands or buts. shoulda coulda woulda. yao's played fatigued he's played SICK. what are you crying about

    what are you talking "shouldn't get fatigued." fatigue is a physical condition, im pretty sure there's nothing yao can do about it, it's not like the dude doesn't bust his ass 365 days a year to get in the best condition he can

    anything would help. 17 of thier last 22 shots were made.

    we need to go with all defensive players for 3 minutes to mess them up.

    deke, chuck, shane, tmac, aB.

    This game is just like the series vs Utah. Yao can't guard an athletic power forward that can shoot jump shoots (like Boozer or Jefferson). Maybe last year we didn't have much choice since Okur can shoot 3s and we didn't have Scola. But I don't understand why we still use Yao to guard Jefferson in this game :mad: .

    Yao further proving that he is USELESS unless he's scoring.

    Damn, Doleac is doing a great job on Yao. Jefferson is playing like a real bigman tonight.

    Scola, fast as hell with all those spins fun game so far.

    Then Yao should rebound and defend. He is doing nothing on the court. T-Mac scored any way.
