    We got lucky with that charge against Amare, but with Nash on the bench we should be up by five at this point...

    If we don't make our shots when we have them we're screwed!!

    Still, we've withstood the first onslaught by the Suns, unfortunately, with these guys their will be several more!!

    Huh? Did you not see us kill them in Phoenix last month? The Houston game was ages ago.

    Man, when you compare their speed to ours, that is the difference between the oldest team in the league and one of the youngest.

    Sooner or later, the Rockets must begin a youth movement as far as our role players are concerned.

    We need SPEEEEED man!:cool:

    This NBA thing seems like a gimmick

    What difference does it make? We were a different team when they played us in Houston, so the comparison to the more recent game to judge the speed is probably a better one, right?

    I'm not shocked by that call on Yao... he move's on picks all the time and rarely gets called for it!!

    We need T-mac to take over!!

    Man, another thing I don't like about the NBA is the way they call the offensive foul now.

    Van Chancellor hit it right on its head.

    But ya well, 2 fouls on Yao.

    Now the refs are just stopping play to give them back the ball for no reason?

    Well, I guess at least we are forcing them (so far) to play our kind of game: slow and a bit low-scoring.

    The key word here is "so far":)

    Or, we could just do the last one only and stop this dumb conversation... ;)

    The key to keeping up with them is simple... just make your shots.
