    There are a lot of turnover machines on this team. Not just Yao.

    Howard, 0 pt, 3 TO. Head has 4 TO's. Common, take care of the ball.

    if the pace keeps up then we might see some jl3 and novak.

    i'd like to see novak out there against thier zone, but it's our rebounding that's keeping us in the game.

    Yes, I think this is the main shortcoming of him, he must overcome it.
    But he is the only guy who can shoot some scores.

    You guys will do anything to keep Reefer on the court soaking up minutes. :)

    Positives, bonzi and yao. somewhat luther too..
    The obvious culprits are forming the negative core. Alston and howard.
    I must say battiers defense on ellis has been pretty darn good.

    Bad news is they are on pace for 30 TOs this game.

    Good news is they only trail by 2 despite that.

    No wonder Rockets are leading in rebounds... the Warriors can't defensive rebound if the Rockets don't get a shot off. ;)

    first half

    dang, only down by 2

    Yao looked a little tired at first

    Alston was bricking shots left and right, he is coming back

    Bonzi made some good shots, congrats fat ass

    Luther earns his minutes

    VSpan great movement and positioning, horrible shooting, we all know that, he can barely hit the rim, hehe...he looks very scared when making a shot

    Hayes was solid

    Battier made some good moves, like drawing fouls like crazy

    one thing that really messed up this game are these two monkeys of golden state commentators! holy crap, one guy is almost crying about every little **** on the court, plus his voice is freaking annoying, horrible!

    If Yao needs Red Bull now today, he's REALLY gonna need something tomorrow

    well, I think all but two of Yao's TOs were caused by Warriors defence, so you can't really blame Yao, Warrior defence is very focused on Yao and rightfully so, since he is our main weapon.. He already has 19 or 21 points? Cut our All-Star some slack.

    As for some ppl's comments about Vspan and Novak... :rolleyes: Vspan's ball handling, dribble penetration, passing are already NBA caliber..he just needs to develop a longer range. For now he should just stick to layups and midrange shots.

    As for Novak, JVG has said he's a smart kid and has been learning the Rockets defense system fast.. I think as long as he's put on the court he just has to make his 3 point shot, the defense and other aspects of the game will come naturally with practice and training.

    Why in the hell Van Gundy keep playing Reefer big minutes, he's killing our team, give those minutes to VSpan or Lucas! :mad:
