    Hope Yao continues his double-double. And I hope he get 30+ pts and 15+ rbs. That's all I am hoping for.

    Yao 30-11.

    Bogans dramatically improves on his shooting percentage to go for 4-12 (from 1-12 and 2-11 from the last two games). Howard continues his solid shooting by going 3-12.

    Rockets 75 Spurs 88.

    JVG ripped Yao: "Why didn't you chase Barry at the 3 point line and stop Parker from dribble penetration?" He then faints.

    The only thing I watch Rockets for these days is Yao's play and stats. Yao scored like 20 points before anyone else did, never heard of.

    #5....Maybe Yao will have watched enough film to be able to solve anything the Spurs can throw a† him this time around. Then again, what does it matter when no one else can make a shot or play when it counts :/ .

    Yet...Rockets win 90-88.

    i HATE the spurs sooooo much, man i HATE them, with a passion!!!


    do u remember spurs fans when The Dream used to shake your great center mrs. robinson? do u remember when mrs. robinson was the mvp and scored 70 pts in a game, but yet your pathetic spurs team got skunked in the western conference finals? do u remember???? :confused:

    (i hate saying this but) We'll get you next time!!! We'll get you again! :mad:

    Yao 34 pts 16 rebs
    Duncan 19 pts 9 rebs

    I'm hopeing that shot T-Mac got in his back is the same stuff Barry Bonds is taking!! T-Mac would be back tonight hitting homers all night long! :eek:

    I think it is pretty sad we haven't beaten anybody in our division yet...0-11.

    Hopefully we win but I doubt it.

    Man how are we going to win this one?

    Rockets lose, but Yao keeps up his stellar performances.

    Ok, I'm calling it right now.

    Kobe's 81 will be a distant memory of the 2005-2006 season as Yao proceeds to break Wilt Chamberlain's heretofore unbreakable record of 100 points in a game.

    Kevin Garnett...inspired by such a dominating performance will demand a buyout of his contract, and he'll sign for the vet's minimum for a chance to play with the future most dominant center of all time.

    Tim Duncan, after being thoroughly embarassed by his and his teammates' inability to stop Yao, will retire from professional basketball. He'll realize that he has an undiscovered aptitude for medicine, and graduate from Johns Hopkins medical school in a matter of months.

    Afterwards, he'll find a miraculous cure for Tracy McGrady's back, thereby allowing him to come back and play at full strength next season.

    I thought Yao would break his own career high last night the way he was scoring in the 1st. It's entirely possible that he gets close to Kobe's 81 in the remaining games if we decide to tank the rest of the way.

    I think we have a shot at this one.

    Spurs learned their lesson from last game. This time they will come with a triple and quad team at Yao from the very beginning of the game instead of waiting till 3rd quarter.

    Game over half way between 1st quarter.

    For pure comedy, watch Juwan get raped again. He is so scared to make anything inside. Timmy scares him. As does anyone for that matter.

    Don't forget Yao's career high was achieved playing against an Orlando defense in which Juwan was a big part.

    How long has it been since Juwan actually made a contested inside shot and didn't get blocked?
