    I did some number crunching, and T-Mac is currently #13 on our all-time list at 6662 pts, 22pts off the #12 guy. Here are the #9-12:

    9. Otis Thorpe 8177
    10. Cuttino Mobley 7448
    11. Steve Francis 7281
    12. Allen Leavell 6684

    So if T-Mac does his job, he will be #10 at least by season's end. Interesting to see Cat ahead of Franchise on the list also...Ya think Steve wants the chance to beat (or better yet tie) his old teammate?

    Because this is a Houston Rockets board....maybe everyone should do like the big classy Yao Ming and speak English.

    C'mon,no big deal,just a few words. :p

    I heard that more and more people embark upon learning Chinese as their second language.That's not bad though,actually I didn't see that much chinese across the board.

    THAT LAST SHOT BY YAO IN THE CLUTCH DID SEND A DREAM FEELING THROUGH ME...... it was just like when you knew he was going to score when you needed it.

    AFTER THOUGHT
    I hope that all rocket fans, of any capacity continue to use this bbs as a forum of expressing their opinions (FREELY and RIGHTFULLY within the rules) and their passion for this team or its players.

    IMO if we want inclusion here we should NOT (not singling any person out)toast new people,single out people who do not live in H TOWN and don't know the complete history of the Rockets before Yao Ming, or slam homosexuals with innuendos and treat women as objects. But those things happen here and nobody sticks up for them. So if we can't practice including every one here with respect then we can not get upset when we feel that we have been disrespected and isolated from the conversation.

    Since we are now on the topic of what is socially acceptable, I am 100% Scottish Sicilian Caucasian American and I'm not offended by this or when people use slang that I cannot understand.

    IN ALL REALITY THIS WHOLE SITE SHOULD BE IN COMANCHE BUT ITS NOT AND NO ONE IS UPSET ABOUT THAT....... :(

    Yao: I think #4 on the list is his most likely landing spot. 3 to 4 thousand points left. If his injuries don't show up again, #3. Calvin's out of reach, IMO.

    Mandarin: I agree that it is annoying and intrusive (and rude) in most threads. I'd have no problem with chinese threads in the hangout, or even the occasional dedicated Mandarin language thread on the hangout. But otherwise, it hijacks threads.

    hahaha.... I didn't know how bad it is until I back translated the sentence from Chinese to English. The translator thing is good enough to help me understand basketball related articles.
