    I have seen Rafer run call his own number several times this season with the clock winding down.

    I don't remember him converting a single one of em.

    Ok we have 12 pt lead which is great, we finally understood that Suns play no defense. Now if we can stop Amare.....

    T-Mac looked out of shape, he neds to get his jumper rolling, he needs to get his rythm back, hopefully he will bounce back in the 2nd half. We need himin the 3rd cause it is gonna be a tough test

    Defenders of the faith stand up and be counted. I was pi$$ed with all the Suns would beat the Rockets by double digits posts. I just knew the Rockets would pay back the Suns.

    I think we are going to see Shaq explode on somebody with a punch or an elbow.

    If Shaq and Chuck were to get into a fight my money is on Hayes. Shaq has shown throughout his career that he has no idea how to fight.

    Better yet, Chuck, don't fight back and maybe Shaq will still be suspended for the playoffs.

    Huh? He is playing with the offense, not being the offense. The team was on fire just now, a smart leader would keep going with the offense, instead of taking the last shot for himself.

    true that

    short rotation = scared coach
    long rotation = coach willing to take risks to reap rewards

    You guys kill me. One busted play and you can do is dwell on the negative. In case you haven't noticed, they're up by 12 at the half.

    give me a break. Tmac got the ball with 8 seconds to go at midcourt and gave it to Rafer with 5 seconds to go. Boneheaded. It's one thing not to shoot well, but he has to play smart and at least get in the paint and pass it to an open guy.

    Without Yao they have to play perfect ball. They have to outhustle and outsmart people, because they're obviously inferior talentwise against anybody in the playoffs.

    Yes, so have you played in NBA before?
    The last time I checked, there is a 7-1 big ass guy and 6-10 muscle man. If im right charging into these 2 big men would result in a block or an offensive foul. And If im right t-mac is recieving the most attention and would obviously be blocked off the paint.....

    No thanks to Alston and McGrady. They were 3-15 (20%) from the floor, and the rest of the Rockets were 23-32 (72%) from the floor. If they don't show up in the second half, things will turn quickly.
