    I hope the Rockets pull this one out...in blowout fashion! They can do it if they just keep playing the way they're playing now. That gimik defense of the Warriors won't work when Scola is in the lineup. Yao just has to be aware that the Warriors want to strip the ball from him when he puts the ball down. He should take one dribble, then hook shot or fadeaway. They can't stop him anyway. They can't even bother the shot

    does that style work in the FOURTH QUARTER?

    we all know this team can sustain what they need without tmac for 3 quarters.

    instead of giving Yao the ball and standing there watching Yao shows, today, I love how our little guys drive to the basket today.

    Rockets aren't used to getting so much fast breaks..they keep chucking up 3s instead of driving

    Man, i can't seem to understand why we don't do this fast pace action more often when t-mac is in the game....Even Bill just menioned it just now.

    most importantly he can finish strong around the basket to take pressure off of yao instead of haye's offensive incompetence

    DAMN, Landry may be my favorite Rocket.

    Hope he's not too hurt and comes back.

    Finally, this is what the Rockets needed someone who can make teams pay for the fronting and keep the double teams to minimum....well I am wrong we have two players who can do that.

    Wow maybe this forum does make a difference. There's a post complaining about crowd noise and the crowd seems to be very lively today.

    i do admit tmac does not want to run as often as we all would like and hopefully the coaching staff and he himself can change that. tmac is our best finisher and it will make us that much better if he runs.
