    The rockets are playing well because McGrady came to the party. With Yao and Tmac both playing well, WE....ARE.......BETTER.
    Tmac was Tweak at the start of the season.

    I think it was easier for Tracy to find his game without Yao in there and upon the Return of the King we will be unstoppable.

    When Yao was playing, Tmac was not shooting the ball like he is now. I just hope we don't change our total gameplan.

    Bayless compared Yao to KG in that he looks to play more on the perimeter and has too much of a "small forward mentality".

    LOL Yao ming playing more on perimeter??? where the hell that comes from? x.X

    Don't worry about Dallas. We did that on purpose just to prove him wrong.

    Ok if you still think rockets are better with yao ming, then think again... winning 6 of last 7 is nice but prior to that lost to pheonix dallas denver and dallas again today. This is when yao ming will be most beneficial to the team: against quality teams. If yao is present in the middle tonight, atleast rockets will have another option when the mavs are harassing tmac the way they did tonight...

    Garnett alone cost 20M,

    That is the way how to trade YAO, other team get YAO, Rocket choose whatever they want/don't want from both team.
