    Ok, I don't want to Jinx it but, Rafer is expected to play. That leaves nobody out, even Wafer is back. Steve Francis and Dorsey are also ready if needed, so we are going to be FULLY healthy against the Cavs barring any injuries from the trip or something like that OR the end of this nets game. I am so happy!

    No! That's a lie. I didn't see it in the post game interview...

    What a luxury to have such a deep team. Maybe this is the year. This team just needs to close games out early like they did tonight so everyone's legs will be fresh in May.

    I too hope Rafer does not start. We're playing well with Brooks off the bench, if he stinks it up we can go to Alston. But giving Alston the starting role will cut Brooks' effectiveness with our first unit.

    That really isn't a good thing that Rafer is back.

    BENCH HIM!

    ORLY? You doubted this team a lot earlier.

    It's easy to kick someone while he's down.

    I don't think RA will put Alston as a starter anyway. He JUST came back from injury.

    Lets teach Cleveland a lesson about what the good team really is! ;)

    T-Mac and Ron only played 29 and 25 mins respectively,Yao played a lil bit more mins,mark at 34 mins,which is acceptable for me. :D

    Look out Cleveland!We're back at full capacity.

    I doubted the depth of the PG position and the overall health of the team. Of course, health isn't guaranteed but this team has shown it can be very competitive even without everyone healthy. Now it's showing that when healthy (or almost) the pieces really fit. You can see the chemistry forming.

    That sure will help. Next game will be extremely difficult, since it will be a 8 on 5 game for sure.

    Oh not again,don't jinx it.I hope it's just a lil bit sore on his ankle and he felt fatigued at the time.

    He played the most minutes on the court amongst our Rockets,hope Rafer readies for Mo Williams and Cleveland.

    Like many, you were worried the Rockets were never going to get it together. It didn't take too long to get it rolling with the big three healthy. You were more than doubting T-Mac.
