    Francis out top, 9 seconds on the clock, he gives a no look pass to Cuttino Mobley, 4 seconds left, Mobley passes to an open Langhi in the corner with 1 second left! Langhi at the buzzer.......YES!!! How Sweet It Is!!

    I agree with the fourth quarter performance of the Rockets.

    The Rockets lost a lot of close games last year that they probably should have won if they had more experience in clutch situations.

    They have shown a winning habit in the fourth quarter from the three wins that we have from the preseason. If this continues into the regular season, we have a very significant shot at the playoffs.

    Then again, it is the preseason. However, I like what I have seen so far.

    Tybrave,

    You have got to be a young kid, or are disabled in some manner. Post ahoy, but please try to be insightful.

    Don't let the slamming by other posters get to you too much. I mean, only Caveman deserves that [​IMG]

    But as to the fourth quarter plague, I think that we haven't shaken that disease yet. Francis will IMO never stop turning the ball over like the ball is an offering plate at church. Sure he can go nights without turnovers, or few in relation to his assists, but his style of play = turnovers under the rules. It would help if he made better passes, and his teammates will get used to him eventually, but he still thinks highlight reel with every move.

    Good point Tybrave! The Rockets do not look intimidated by the fourth quarter anymore. If these kids learn how to close how games when they are young, wait until one more superstar joins the team. We could be talking championship again!
