    What the heck happened to the most feared division in the entire league? Its insane, I think we're still first despite this loss. If someone told me the mavs, spurs, rox and NO combined would hover around 50% before the season started I would have thought they were crazy...

    yeah dude.. some people just don't know what it's like to play hurt.. i'm not saying i do but it's probably something that the majority of us couldn't deal with.. i'm not a professional athlete and i'm not saying i know what it's like to be tmac but it seems like he's struggling big time and it's painful for him.. so big ups to him for at least trying.. tmac at less than 100% is still better than a lot of good players in the league

    Could have team shown any lesser effort than the Rockets did tonight? I mean even D-Leaguers have more effort than these guys did tonight. So what if Yao was out, does that mean we couldn't win the game? God, I'm so pissed off with this team, I mean T-Mac, if you want to play, play to your FULLEST, if you don't then don't waste the team's minutes. Luther could have contributed more than T-Mac did tonight.

    we played decent defense considering yao was out and hayes and landry was in foul trouble.

    tracy scored 16 pts, playing decently well.

    and yet everyone blames him. we lost this game b/c ron missed 3 straight layups and 3 straight fts. it was a 6 pt game when he did that and dallas didn't score then. that's where the game was lost.

    seriously, what's wrong with that Terry?



    No layups and not making any layups are different


    another sad and dumb game.

    Can't the rockets flatline the win loss streak?

    Even though we lost, Mark Cuban is still a criminal. Don't drop to soap, Cuban!

    Agreed... While Yao is out, the offense should run through Mac in the high post... Even with 1 leg hes close to unguardable from there.

    We lost this game due to two reasons...

    1. Shots weren't falling
    2. Jason Terry.... He kills us everytime out..

    You win some, you lose some....

    yeah, the rockets did. and it felt like 13 in 35 after tmac made the first three. if only the other two didnt rim out
    story
    -cant stop terry(EVER)
    -miss open shots/layups
    -they hit difficult and contested shots
    -the rims are stupid
    -our big 3 was injuried and yao didnt even play

    hopefully yao will be back against the wizards. aren't they injury plagued as well?

    Terry was very hot tonight. Dirk hit some tough shots. It isn't the end of the world that we lost the Mavs. Yeah they have a losing record but they are a tough team to play against especially when your 2 of your best players are playing hurt and the other 2 are not playing at all.

    Head is the last one we may rely on in a tough game. Wafer can shoot some 3s at least. But honestly, Barry is really lost.

    Are you kidding me? They are like the No. 5,6,7 guy of the team and you expect them to outscore Terry? It's already a bonus Rafer+Brooks scored as much as Terry. It's up to TMac and Artest to step up and lead the team.
