Man, what did I say about making Sacramento our bitches? :mrpimp:

They lead for most of the game, lead by 6 at the end of the 3rd quarter, and then get totally owned in the last 6 minutes. KG had some huge shots/blocks/steals in those last minutes.

LOL... err.. I think u meant "the rockets would not be anything WITHOUT him"

just a minor correction... but yeah the final minute of the game was amazing.... just unbelievable... wow...

The problem with the Rockets is that their coach wants them to play a defensive style of basketball and focus on that but the players that they have are just not fit for that type of a gameplan, if Byron Scott or Don Nelson was their coach they would be a lot better imo.

yeah van gunday is a post oriented coach... he's always been that coz he has had great centers (mainly Ewing).
But I think he should try to have some more focus on Tracy... Yao just isn't dominating yet.... but yeah he's still 24 and big man 'usually' takes more time to become a force...

but as of right now I only see yao developing into a Rik Smits type player, who IMO is a pretty good center.... I hope he can be more than that

I still can't get over houstong when they traded away Cato.... he's the guy they should've kept and get rid of taylor instead... he played great with yao last year... and yao needs a rebounding/aggresive partner in the paint to be more effective...

the Raps desperately need a talented big man who can rebound... Donyell is great, but he's not tall enough :(

we need someone like Ben Wallace (not him, someone of his size though)

Again reminds me of how HORRIFIC a draft Rafael Araujo is... :-puke:

Should've drafted someone who can actually play and useful in a trade...

I think the problem with Houston is that they rely way too much on two players... especially since Yao is not that solid of a player yet. :p Nobody else on the team has confidence or consistency in making the shots, or even taking the shots. Houston's offence lacks creativity and they just can't find a way to penetrate to the basket. Normally it's just passing around and finally a forced jumper...
Last season there were Stevie and Mobley, also JJ and Taylor were playing better, and they had alot more sources for scoring... This season, it's basically just T-Mac...
I think they looked too much into a superstar or the swingman-centre thing, but they haven't made up a good team becuz there is no one to accompany or support T-Mac and Yao.

the Magic are scoring 100+ points in every game lately but they need to tune up the defense because we're giving too much points away.

Malone looks like he's going to Spurs... but nothing is set yet


"He's a legend,'' O'Neal said. ``And if you don't like Karl Malone, there's something wrong with you.''
- Shaq definitely knows what he's talking about... he's the big aristotle!!
