    The last play. I'm sorry. I don't think the Rockets HAVE EVER, in this year, had a good last play.

    This was more WTF then ever. I'm hoping at this point that Adelman just says, "playas do your thang" because there was nothing more embarrassing then that.

    At least McGrady made his clutch shot.

    Man I dunno about you but I wouldn't want the last play to be a fadeaway by a 7'6 center.

    You guys have a faster response to posting on game threads than hitting fastballs.

    Adelman should have let the team that brought us back try to win the game. Yao should never have been given the chance to take the last shot. He did nothing tonight to deserve it.

    In these situations, it is way better to go for the three.

    You probably only have a 40% chance at a 2. Then a 50/50 chance in overtime which gives you about a 20% chance to win the game.

    You probably have a better than 30% chance at a three.

    But dumb coaches like Adleman don't understand. Pop against Phoenix the other night does understand.

    Can't believe you guys blame the last play.

    WE SUCKED THE ENITRE NIGHT. Notable standouts:

    Yao Ming: 4-14
    Tracy McGrady: 6-17
    Rafer Alston:3-10
    Aaron Brooks:0-4

    i don't get it, why not drive in the final play? 2 points or get fouled. simple as that.
    fans can do better on this than the coach a does

    Yeah, Yao choked on that last one.

    But, it should NEVER have come to that. The loss is on the entire team. Just a disgusting performance. Flat, no energy, no defensive intensity at all.

    Adelman.. what the hell were you thinking putting Tmac& Rafer back in the game, as soon as those two were back, the flow of the game came to a screeching halt!

    Having Battier and Alston on the court at the same time is like playing 3 on 5 on offense. Mike James outplayed Rafer tonight by the way.

    I'm an avid Houston Rocket fan, but today's game was a POS.

    The squad showed no energy and the Wiz built a lead that based on talent level, they should've never had.

    WTF?! Does this Rockets team think that sub-performing opponents will just lay down and let the Rockets beat them?!!

    What an embarrasment.
