    We might need Deke to stop Haywood tonight.

    Scola needs more touches in the low post. I hope the Rockets consider this now that Yao is out. Scola can score down there.

    Alston, Jackson, T-Mac, Battier, Scola. Still a good team to win a playoff spot.

    Once again....this is now TMAC's TEAM!

    Time to step it up once more. Time to make this team fast, attacking the rim team. Time to be uptempo. Oh god...please make this season still work. :(

    Yes, I hope someone does step up. Hopefully this won't affect the rest of the teams demeanor. Today's game is the game that can make the rockets or break the rockets.

    To be honest, I truly believe the Rox can continue to shine. They dont have the passing be man but I think with the right chemistry, TMac stepping up as leader and renewed vigor on defense. This team can be make some waves.

    Our team has to play UP now...no more going through the motions; we don't have that luxury anymore...eveyone on this team needs to step up their game

    14 guys stepping up their game = Yao

    Landry and Scola go for career highs in points and rebounds.

    basically there will be no more open 3s for shooters as there is no yao for people to collapse on in the paint.

    It's good we are running Adelmans offense and not Van Gundys. T-Mac still has a good team to run with and Im confident they can make the playoffs...

    I am sure we will still beat the Wizards but any chance of us winning it all this season just went out of the window. :mad:

    Even before the injury I dont think we could have gotten past the Lakers.

    jeez, I was just hoping for a nice, relaxing rockets game to watch tonight, but now it's VERY important to keep momentum going with Yao out. Hopefully, T-mac can step up his game and the rest of the players can step up theirs as well and we can get this win.

    So the question is will Rick play Deke tonight? or will he go with Scola/Landry/Hayes as the bigs? They can certainly help play a new up tempo style being centers, but I'm worried more on the defensive end and if they can play good defense on guys bigger then them.
