    Rox play such a slow ball. Stand and wait to move the ball. It's not like Rick's typical ball

    The guys are just making shots, Yao defense has not been bad.

    yao is a good post defender....but the opposing bigs DO NOT post up on yao,(only shaq posts up on yao) they try to take yao off the dribble.

    Landry was great on offense but can Hayes learn him to play D ? Maybe they can help eachother out, Landry shows Hayes how to shoot (FTS!!) and Hayes shows Landry to play defense.

    We don't have the players to run Rick's offense.

    Sacramento big men were much different from our big men. Divac is one of the best passing big men in the History of the NBA.

    that's very true. that's why yao struggles v. these guys. and that's why we lost the utah series b/c boozer did the same thing. had we played tim duncan, yao would have slowed him down.

    the comeback is from not settling for the 3 and taking the ball into the paint. Still not happy, we should be blowing out this team, the Wiz aren't playing that great.

    Agreed, even though we were favored that series, that was a bad matchup for this team because of How they attacked Yao.

    Yao needs a breather. He got beat up by their scrub centers.

    Why is T-mac taking the last shot when he hasn't made a shot the whole game ?? We're down against the worst team in the NBA, the hope for a blowout was a long freaking shot. Looks like this is going to be another Spurs / Blazers ending and we lose.

    Blatche is not a scrub.

    Do some people watch basketball outside of Rocket games?

    We played better offensively in the 2nd quarter. But I can't believe our defense has been so bad this season.
