    The Twolves halftime show is a feature on the subject of Dunking on Yao.

    Tmac- 1-8
    Rafer- 1-8

    Someone please dropkick Rafer on the side of his head.

    Of course, Rafer could go 2 for 20 and make a "game winning" three when we are up by one already and fans will go, "Clutch three by Skip." :rolleyes:

    I will be looking to see if this team can do two things without T-Mac on the court:

    1) Get the ball to Yao effectively and often

    AND

    2) Be able to knock down shots without the luxury of being dished a perfect pass at the perfect spot and having all day long to take it. We will be able to tell McGrady's real impact on this team -- even without scoring -- through the way his teammates play without him.

    No more easy shots, guys, so be smart about it...

    Yao has 7 attempts, and Rafer is shooting 3's? This offense sucks!

    Yao made a 5-7, all other guys 9-39.

    why Yao only took 7 shoots in half time. why can't feed Yao!!!

    I almost fainted. I saw T-Mac grimacing holding his mid section and for a second I thought it was his back.

    It turns out he has a bruise to his left abdomen area and his return is questionable for tonight.

    Hopefully this is nothing, the Rockets were just starting to get going too...

    How are we winning with two players going 1 for 8?

    Rafer and Tracy are not smart players. All this stuff about Tracy being a good decision maker stop when he decides to shoot. He's great going to the hole, but doesn't go there. I would excuse Rafer, but he's getting shots inside.

    What a bunch of crap. Maybe we're finally getting to be one of those teams that can play poorly and still win. That might be a good sign.

    our D has kept us in a lot of games. an ugly win is still a win. we need to put away this team in the second half.

    None of our guards can finish a layup :confused: Every time Rafer tries one, he throws up a preyer. Every time Head tries one, his layups are like those in WNBA.

    And where the hell is Bonzi? I didn't even see him on the bench.

    Only 3 TOs. Normally it means 10+ points lead.
