If we lose tonight I wonder how this board will react.

This is just that type of game. I don't care if its the Knicks or the Spurs...its hard to beat a team 2 times in less than a week.

This tells me all I need to know about you.

I KNEW Robinson was going to make that. We had 5 players just watch him sprint for the 3 point line and let him shoot it. Why we did that is beyond me.

With about 2 min left, I was watching double and triple teams on Yao, and no one was within 20 feet of Hayes. Scola needs to be in then, he can make shots.


Hey, do you really think Battier's defense is that good? I'm not so sure. And that's not only about tonight's game. Battier is pretty good at team defense but much worse at 1on1 defense.

With his game like that he really sucks. He cannot make shoots, open shoots and his defense ain't that great as you think.

A lot of people thinks he's great defense cause the other people say that. No, he is good - hustle guy but 1on1 he's not that great.

Right now he's not helpin' the team at all.

He isnt on Bruce Bowen or Artest level like some attempt to say, but he is very good. Look what he did to Jamison and Butler last night.

Shoot, he has 3 blocks in the first half of this game.

The shooting is another thing. He kills me some games with that lol.

And that's why he's on the team, he's able to make some stops, he will die for the loose ball, he will get you that great energy.

But he's still not as great on defense as people think. He's got a nice footwork, he's a solid boy. He can quard Kobe and Nowitzki.

I like this guy but he is just kiddin' with his shootin'

Rockets has no idea about Lee.

Come on, Luis, Bozi and Luther. Chuck is a good guy, he got rebs until now.
