    GOAT said it best in the game thread: "oh yeah fellas RA had the balls to keep Rafer on the bench.......really big positive"

    That was a big coaching decision by Adelman. I honestly kept dreading every stoppage of play or time out in the fourth because I did not want to see Rafer make his way back onto the court.

    Oh yeah, oh yeah oh yeah. We were shortheanded and still beat the champions at pretty much full strength

    It feels GREAT. Hopefully it will turn our season around. Hopefully we will be healthly and start winning now. GO ROCKETS !

    It will also force T-Mac to play better ! YEAH

    good enough to beat everybody and bad enough to lose everyone. It's a pretender. Rockets has 70-wins talent. It's up to coach to bring it up.

    Maybe yesterday was the Philadelphia game everyone has been gasping for. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    Loved the defensive effort. Maybe all hope isn't lost. I want more defense!!!

    Yea BABY!!!! Go Wafer, Brooks and YAO!!!!! Great game by everyone tonight. Even Adelman did a good job by keeping Brooks on the floor for the end of the fourth quarter. Alston may start but I want Aaron Brooks finishing the game. Artest was good defensively tonight also-shouldn't have played that aggressive to foul out though. Hopefully, this is our turning point for this season just like how we lost last year to Philly. We can turn our season around now. LET'S GO ROCKETS!!!!

    10/13, with a clutch offensive board and 2pts, who is choking?

    Well I guess we ended their 13 game home winning streak with some good defense to hold them to their lowest scoring quarter of the season with 11 points.

    On another note: the BBS is going to explode!

    Without McLazy, everybody is playing harder.
    McLazy is a liability in defense.


    Kick the cancer away from Rockets :mad:
