    Enjoyed that win (although I like the Warriors as well). Nice to see them hold onto a lead against a high scoring team at that.

    I was so expecting Davis to hit a few long distance 3s in the final moments to pull off a shocker.

    Pretty sad to actually expect that with a team like this.

    Hey stown, what's with the empty seats at the Toyota Center (there was a game on TNT about a week ago, and it looked like half of the lower bowl was empty in the middle of the 2nd quarter)? There are some fans in Oklahoma City who would LOVE to support a team like the Rockets.

    The section you saw is part of the social scene. They go up to the bar/food court and mingle while their $175/seat is empty...

    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but the Rockets aren't going anywhere image

    Oh yeah and while on the topic, we've won 17 of 20, including 8 in a row.

    So we made a trade.

    Link

    Um, if I'm reading this right, we get Bobby Jackson and "Adam Haluska and either their own or New Orleans' second-round pick, whichever is greater" for Bonzi, Mike James, and then somehow Memphis gets involved with Marcus Vinicius and "either a second-round pick or the rights to former Rockets draft pick Malick Badiane and the rights to an unsigned player from the Hornets."

    Uh....

    Reason #1,937 that the NBA salary "cap" is complete and total BS.

    Hey Carl Landry is looking good, I watched him at Purdue the last few years (wifes school) and he was a monster, almost single handidly beat Florida in last years tournament.

    Landry and Scola have turned into some great pickups.

    I really liked Chucky Hays but these kids have just blown the doors open and deserve more minutes.

    .
  • yao is out for the season with a foot fracture. That;s three straight seasons...three straight major injuries. At least Bill Walton had a good run before the foot injuries started to limit his game.

    Just heard it on the local radio and was hoping it was a joke.

    Guess not.

    Funny you mention that.

    When McGrady was hurt (allegedly) earlier this year, fans were crying saying we should trade him... Yao was the future and it was time to get something for Tracy while we could... He gets injured too much, soft player, cant get out of the 1st round, etc, they all said..

    Think/hope/pray he has nothing to lose and shines for the rest of the season, including playoffs (crosses fingers).

    Problem is, though, that we play in the superior Western Conference...

    Having said that, maybe resting Dekimbe (sp) for 80% of the season was a good idea.

    The dude is still money. He's good for a couple of blocks per game.
