    u gotta relax. but ur right on one point.

    when teams do try to front yao, we shouldn't even bother looking for him b/c it does bring the shot clock down to single digits.

    however, if yao gets normal single coverage, he should get the ball. he's 7'6 and he usually gets the best shots.

    yeah, you're right. but how can we expect to see our big lead disappear every single time?

    We're getting destroyed by Bonner. Bonner, Okur, Murphy. They're Rocket killers.

    no, i remember distinctly that many many games when they kept playing Yao ball and rockets are winning too. some games Yao gets over 20 shots too. you are basically a Yao hater. if we win, it's a team effort, if we lose, it's ONLY YAO. that's all from reading your comments so far.

    Thank God for Ron though...he's the reason the Rockets aren't sitting on a one point-lead or deficit.

    It's only going really bad in the past year or so with new members with "love" in their monikers.

    It's frustrating but when you're playing a team like the Spurs don't expect for a big lead to last long especially when you're playing without one of your main guys.

    No, you build a lead and then maintain it. If you shoot lights out you are up 60-80 by the end of the game. Going up by 20 and giving up the lead happens all the time...one of these times we are going to keep it between 10-20 until the end.

    A lot of big leads go down especially when playing good teams like the Lakers and Spurs.

    at least in the 3 games we blown big leads, it's cuz we palyed yao ball. It's NOT yao's fault. It's team's fault of not adjusting to the other team's strategy to deny yao the ball.

    let's see what happens in the 2nd half.
