    We got away with it the first half. fine. But Rudy puts Steve Francis back into the game not to replace Moochie Norris but Shandon Anderson. This is not a smart move. Moochie Norris takes control of the ball on offense while Francis becomes a mere spectator.

    Where The hell is Maurice Taylor? i don't care how many fouls Maurice Taylor has theres no excuse for him to be sitting over on the bench this long.

    Go Rockets!

    It seems to be working, thank god, but I get a little nervous whenever Walt is forced to play the power forward postition. Our interior defense and defensive rebounding go to hell when that happens.

    What is the reason to have moochie Norris in the game? We all know whats going to happen toward the end of the game -- Mobley or Francis isolations. So why not keep our interior rebounder, Kenny Thomas, in the game? i mean how many guys do you need to bring the ball up the court?

    Go Rockets!

    Lack of defensive rebounding killed us in the fourth quarter. Kenny was benched while Mocchie was left on the court. Thats the ballgame right there!

    Like I said, it was a team loss. Every player, including Rudy, was trash.

    Well, I'm sorry you don't recall calling Rudy trash. They aren't trash every night, just when they need a win against a good team. Then they are trash.
