    I'm just joking around at this point. I've accepted that Yao is going to get some extra protecton that Greg and Joel wont get against him. So to deal with this I make bad jokes that all must suffer. Sorry.

    I agree. I notice this regardless of who is setting the pick. I worry more with Greg because he is called for so many ridiculous ticky-tack fouls. I think fixing this should be a priority over the summer.

    That's quite alright. I understand.

    Battier's so well-spoken. I've got a fuckin' man crush.

    He is and he's such a savvy person and player. I guess I really can't complain about fouls since the Rockets have caught up almost in fouls but there is one on Greg alas.

    But now they make it up with the first three second call on Yao this series. These refs are odd fellows.

    Foul on Oden for fighting for position. It's clear he just needs to let Yao go where he wants--that's what the officials seem to be saying.

    Awesome. Yao comes down, throws his arms out as he shoves Oden. Then Oden tries to establish position.

    Foul on Oden. Bullshit.

    Wow, then 3 in the key on Yao. Bout damn time they pick that up.

    I've had a long-time man crush on Shane. I love the way the guy plays basketball and I love that he graduated with a 3.8 from Duke.

    Shit, I've got a queasy feeling in my stomach. Rockets' offense is in now in disarray.

    Big time hustle by Joel to get that offensive board.

    Portland in the regular season (I know doesn't mean much in the post) was one of the best fourth quarter teams in the league. As long as Blake doesn't like remove his brain for crucial parts of the fourth I think we'll see a really tough battle between both teams.

    Officials bailing out the Rockets again. What a joke. Scola with 4 steps. How about a travel before the body contact.

    Ball don't lie, bitch.

    Scola needs to stop being so hesitant and shoot the open mid-range jumper. The Blazers' shotblocking has done a good job of putting off Houston.

    Roy wants this game bad. Joel is getting pwned by the refs who don't know that he is AWESOME. : )
