    The Rox mental is just great: 6 FTs winning the game (Yao 2 DW2) from 14 sec. near end of play. This would help Rox in playoff games. Go Rox. Go home take a good rest and continue rolling on home court.

    POW so what? That doesn't entitle him to play brainlessly.

    YES..........SWEEEEEEP


    I hope Juwan's injury isn't too bad, didn't look too bad when it happened, didn't see James body bend or rollover his knee, James kind of just bumped into Juwan's knee. He is being examined tomorrow, so injury report will be tomorrow.

    Man, Juwan is important to this team so I hope it's just a minor sprain.

    I caught the tail end of the game and man it seems like the Warriors like to give us a run for our money lately. I can remember last year in our final game against them when they were raining 3s like tonight. Especially Pietrus who seems to really like playing against us. But the good news about playing teams that are used to losing is they give you a ton of opportunities to beat them just by their own mistakes.

    But that led Zarko getting his career night.
    Zarko is about twice the player of MD is, at least tonight.

    He's our MVP on the game. Without him, the Rox would've lost. :D

    wow, rox keep rolling through west, 5-0 now. And wait, there will be more, we will host Por and Bos in wednesday and friday, play at Min Saterday, three more?? Possibly.

    Next week , travel to Mia, Cle and NO, all easts. We will have a break from now on.

    Can we sweep the trip again, if so, we will definitely switch our position with queens.

    Go rox.

    He didn't play anywhere near "brainlessly." None of the shots he took were shots he couldn't make. Yao Ming was not having an effective offensive night either, all of our shooters had gone cold in the fourth, and Juwan Howard (who was our best offensive player tonight) was out from injury. There was nothing wrong with the shots he took.

    Unbelievable! 4-0 on an incredibly hard road trip, and people are b**ching!

    What did y'all expect in this game. All the signs pointed to an upset and/or a letdown, and they pulled it out at the end. I was actually surprised they had a double-digit lead for most of the game considering all the factors.

    It took career games by two scrubs just to get them back in it. Don't under-estimate Howard's injury cause it seemed the team got the wind knocked out of them when it happened,allowing G.S. to make that good run to get close.

    You people complaining about TMac, look at the all-around numbers he put up on the road trip and then come back to me. Fact is, his three at the end of the third, pretty much won the game.

    Get well soon, Howard! I'm not looking forward at the prospects of a Padgett/Spoon rotation.

    Where is the Pick 'n Roll between Tmac and Yao?

    Even though Yao's shots are a bit off today, they definitely need to find him a lot more.

    I actually enjoyed watching this game. Once again, our guys showed composure and kept their cool down the stretch. If it was at the beginning of the season in the same game situation, we could have lost. Warriors had a great shooting night. That happens quite often in NBA. When guys are hot, they are hot. They can shoot the lights out no mattter how hard u defend 'em. But our guys kept on playing and played like nothing happened. Very cool headed when the game was on the line.

    Yao didn't shoot well in the first half, but he fought hard for rebounds, and played good defense. DW was like he's playing in the backyard of his home when he stepped on the free throw line. no pressure at all. what a guy!

    I am worried about our PF position for the next few games. We could be badly out rebounded. It just doesn't look good to me.
