    Second that, nice job by our point guards. Yao looks like he is really learning the game, nice repetoire of shots, baby hooks, short jumpers, reverse dunks. Liked the competitiveness of the team without T-MAC. Its going to get better, sweet.

    Tmac was shown smiling and clapping on the sidelines a couple times, too. I think he was pretty damn happy to see a team do that well without him.

    You know, I feel good about this game, but I'd have felt alot better if the ref didn't make that horrible call. Even if we didn't make a shot, it would have just felt better to know we didn't get robbed the chance of it.

    I think he was probably more happy (or relieved) that Yao recovered from the bad first half. :)

    I'm pretty satisfied with the game, hopefully T-Mac will be back on Saturday for the Lakers

    It was nice to see Yao be aggressive and step up towards the end and nice to see Boki hit some good shots, same with MoT! I was bit suprised

    Except maybe the Wolves shouldn't have the 3 pt lead if those mickey mouse officials grew some backbone and called the travel on KG on the play before that. KG caught the pass from Sam with left foot on the floor, right foot off. He then changed the pivot foot to the right one, step with the left then put the ball on the floor before he made the shot. It's simply pathetic!

    Man Sounded like an intense game Boki shouldve gotten more shots it seemed like from watching the game chat. We played a great all around game. 6 tos in the last 3 quarters and Mo hit 2 3's I will watch it tomorrow but sounded good. We will get them next time!!!!!@!!!

    Both Lue and Ward are clueless on how to pass inside to yao even Yao gets some good position. What a shame!

    My feeling is that Yao is always worried about foul trouble.
    Therefore he is hesitant in the first half. If he is not in foul trouble in the first half, he will be more aggressive in the 2nd half.

    Just my 2 cents.

    lol I agree..we stayed close that was good...too bad that was a BS call..looked like Hassell used his hands to push Jackson..that was a nice shot by Yao..good job by everyone..I like Fox Sports..that thing they had on Rudy before the game was cool. Yeah, considering Minnesota is one of the elite teams..wow lol. Were they trying lol..we played well..we came out shooting on fire..i'm glad we didn't get blown out..like the Heat :p Eddie did good too. Nice try GO ROCKETS!!!!

    Is there a NBA point guard that can get the ball to Yao :rolleyes: This is the same argument for years. Yao isn't going to touch the ball every time down the floor, not even Hakeem did when he had Barkley and Drexler with him(ok Hakeem got the ball 95% of time he was on the court during our first championship but did you see how Hakeem played that year?).

    Terrible when the ref interferes with the outcome of the game like this. If this is the real Minny team, then we may be a better team than we think. Yao-5 boards..........sad. Boki, great 1st half, disappears 2nd half.

    Wow awesome game!!! Since T-mac was out, Yao was basically doubled and their defense focus mainly on Yao -- demonstrated by his FTs. I Love tonight's game. The efforts the team put out. EVEN WITHOUT T-MAC. WOW!!!! It is unbelievable. With last year's team, we would have lost by at least 12. There I said it. I'm so happy with the team so far.

    Our team needs some time to gel on court. We can see that by our early struggle in the past few games and we came through in the end. The important thing is, Yao stepped up. This is the game that we can safely say that the refs costed us. GOSH I HATE THEM!!!!!

    UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

    %#%$#% U REFS!!

    BS calls!
