It's like people wants us to lose so they will have something to complain about.

Some peop;le will never learn to not get too high after a win or too low after a lose , especially not in November.


I think it has more to do with the fact that yesterday's game was on ESPN and this is on NBATV. Not everyone gets to see this game.

Dude, I don't know how old you are but it's the weekend. Here in the U.S. there's plenty of nightlife especially on the weekends.

Plus, the game was on NBA TV and not many people have subscription to it.

Yeah, I actually went to the game and then hit a couple of nightclubs dowtown afterwards. I just made it home about 10 minutes ago.

I somehow found the night life in US kind of boring. Maybe because I was on vacation when I was in other countries.

I think we're screwed anyway. There's no way Brooks (or anyone on our team, for that matter) can keep up with Paul.

He's dropping 40 on us tonight.


Thank God you were wrong. Aaron and Luther held Chris Paul to 2-10 shooting and 12pts.

I know! I don't understand this team. We lose to a bad San Antonio team, but blow out a good Hornets team on the second night of a back to back.

And how could we have predicted that Paul would not destroy Brooks and the entire Rockets team? Anyone who did so prior to the game is an idiot, IMO.

In that situation you bet on Paul 10 out of 10 times and he comes out on top in 9 of them.

Anyway, I'm glad we won and we're getting this "Raefor" character back next game.

give credit to our coaches for the defense strategy
Yao and Hayes did a great job for help defense
Scola and Landry did a great job for rotate to cover for Yao and Hayes
we actually shut down their 3pts shooting
as a team they avg 20 3pts a game and shooting 40%
last night only 10 attempted and made 3
