I guess our defense is bad b/c both Battier and McGrady aren't in there. But there just is no excuse for not getting back in transition. Step ya game up Rockets.

LOL at Yao palming the ball as he sets up his position. I dunno..can't ever remember him doing that in the past.

lol i think someone told AB to stop being a point guard. Greatest advice ever. seems like a weight has been lifted off his shoulders no responsibility to get others involved.

Still miscommunication and poor timing on post entry passes. Been a problem forever. Yao has his man sealed, pass doesn't come, far too often when the pass does come Yao doesn't have his man sealed anymore.

Scola looks awful.

The offense looks better , we are moving the ball from side to side.
Players making effort to be active and move without the ball , I hope when T-Mac comes back he will do the same.
