<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Martin:</div><div class="quote_post">OMG! Yao had 41 points,16 rebounds and 7 assists </div> This is the result Yao gets when they pass the ball to Yao. The game was awesome going into triple OT.

The game was simply amazing to watch. Yao played like a true All-Star last night and I hope he can start playing like that every night. He dominated on both sides of the court. I really liked his agressiveness on offense last night as he fouled out Rebraca and Pryzbilla. I thought it was a well rounded offensive attack. Jackson had 15 shots and Yao, Mobley and Francis had above 20. One thing that surprised me was the low turnover numbers. The Rockets committed 20 to the Hawks 16. They both did a great job of taking care of the ball. For the Rockets and a 3OT game I would expect the turnovers to be in the 25-28 range. I am really happy the Rockets pulled through with the victory however I was scared to death that they would lose it when Jason Terry hit the three pointer in the 2nd overtime to put the Hawks up by three. The three for those of you who didn't see it was at least 8 feet beyond the three point arc. He didn't junk the ball either, he shot it. Once that went in, I honestly thought the game was over. When you are able to make that type of shot, you are "feeling it" and when certain players are "feeling it" they are unstopable.

One thing you mentioned that really stuck in my mind was the turnover numbers. 20 is acceptable in 68 minutes, and for a 48 minute game it should be 15. If the Rockets can be like that each game, I'd be really glad.
