    boki is a beast. he didnt get to flush that jam because of hamcakes miller, but it woulda been nice. i love his aggressive attitude take it to the hole. if only he would have as much confidence on his jumpshot consistently

    Damn, when they are on, the Rocks are one of the most entertaining teams in the league.

    Poor Boki though, he was trying to look like the Boki from the highlight clips we saw before the draft.

    Wow, Yao is super aggressive. 6 boards already with super D. Francis is more assertive. We rock, and the Timberwolves sucks in the 1st quarter!

    Nothing wrong with that first quarter. Since the new year, I'm definitely seeing improvements on this team. There are a lot of things about this team I've been critical about, but one of them has not been Jeff Van Gundy. If the Rockets are going to continue to be one of the top defensive teams in the league, they only need to break 87 points a gmae most nights to win and lately they've seemed much more capable of that standard than early on in the year. This is an impressive offensive team they've held to 13 points in the first quarter.

    If only Yao can play like this all year!

    13-10 in 16 minutes with 6-7 from the floor.

    And his D on Garnett is superb.

    This is so amazing. I can get used to this.

    We are playing suffocating defense and outrebounding them by a hefty margin (26-12). Wow.

    Yao has his double-double before the half. :D

    Cat is just ridiculous...
    he blatantly ignore mike wilks, refused to pass the ball to the poing guard...
    Just completely run over steve francis and forced steve to take a timeout.. though I have to admit it was funny watching the replay of that...
    In a 2 on 1 fast break.. 2 wolves.. one mobley.. just handed the ball to fred hoiberg... handed it to him.. :rolleyes:

    On another note.. boki needs to do a better job hiding the basketball when he drives to the basket.. and not be so obvious on what he is going to do... there was enough time for o miller to read thoreau's "walden" before he jumped to block that shot...

    I hope they played better in the second half
