    Haha who says my days are ruined when Yao has an off day?:D Like I said in another post Yao is only my second fav player in the NBA behind Steve Nash. Basketball is also my second fav sport to watch.:D

    A few final thoughts from me here in MN on this great game.

    The last few times I've seen the Rox play the T-wolves either in person or on TV the Rox have lost. So today I decided to wear an Astro jersey over a Rox T-shirt figuring since signing Clemens some of the Stros good luck could rub off on the Rox.

    Lo and Behold!

    I highly recommend this to all Houston fans.

    Also I just saw on the news the NBC affiliate here started out the report on this game showing the old Rocket's logo, the one with the ball not the cartoon rocket. A mistake by the graphics dept? A subtle commentary on the Rox graphics? Or a recognition by the T-Wolves hometown news that this current Rox team is looking like the great Rox teams of old?

    Who knows I'm loopy with joy to think straight.:D

    There, I put my sig back in for the benefit of those people who think I'm hiding or defending myself from being a YOF. If Clutch chooses to delete it again, then that's his choice.

    Hey now, there's no need for that. You wanna crow about the Rockets win (and who doesn't) and stick it in the face of the doomsayers, how about a nice, civil "neener neener neener".

    So you already know that the owner of this site deleted your sig because doesn't like the fact that you called him out in your sig, yet you do it again.

    You really are dense. lol

    Unless he shoots jump shots. A lot of his scoring is either dunks, or close lay-ins. His perimeter game is what is the liability, or rather his mid range jumper.

    It wasn't calling him out. Maybe he deleted it because he got that impression, which wasn't my intent. The point was to make it clear to everyone that I'm a YOF instead of having people say you sound like a YOF or you're defending yourself from being labeled a YOF.

    Codell & Xenogears,

    Enough is enough! This is Cltuch's website for Rox fans to discuss Rox b-ball, not your personal feud. If you guys don't like each other, why don't just ignore each other. All of us would appreciate that.

    Great, great win. Fabulous win. Finally.

    BUT, since I have to be a hayta...

    ...why does Steve always have to take it on himself? Why does he have to force the action so much? Why do he and Cat trade off having to get the spotlight firmly fixed on themselves? Yao gets wide open and they continue to ignore him. Who knows what kind of game Yao would have had if The Cat and Steve Show would continue to feed their starting center?

    That's true, I usually don't get into this kind of stuff on boards cause there's really no point in arguing over the internet. So Codell can be the 17th YOB on my ignore list.:D

    Sometimes I really wonder if I'm watching the same game as some of you folks. Seriously. What do you guys want? I just don't understand it.

    Even though Houston had a great game, I don't like Mobley's decision with the ball today. He forced too many shots when there is nothing there, that's not fundamental, and I hope JVG yell at him for doing that. Whenever he gets the ball, he rarely look to pass at all. That's why he turnover the ball or forcing shots cuz he has no 2nd option which is to pass the ball. He has no passing in his mind AT ALL!!! When Yao is doing pick and roll with him and he was being doubled and Yao was opened, he forced the shot against double team instead of giving it back to Yao. He's such a ballhog and this could kill Houston's chance of winning if it comes down to close game situation.

    Cuttino Mobley has 5 assists tonight. Pretty good for someone who doesnt pass the ball or doesn't even have it in his mind don't ya think ?? ;)
