so far at halftime the Suns lead the Rockets 48-42...in the battle of the trios the Suns' are getting the better of the Rockets'...Marbury has 22 points already with two assists compared to Stevie's 12 points....Amare has 9 points, 5 rebounds, and 5 blocks compared to Ming's 8 points and rebounds...Mobley is at 3 points with 2 rebounds and assists....Marion (struggling from the field at 2-6) has 6 points, 8 rebounds, and 4 assists...should be a great second half...
Suns lost another game 90-85...Marbury ended up with 33 points and 6 assists....Amare just doubled his point production from the first half and other than that did nothing more (ended up with 9 boards)...JJ had a nice all around game, no numbers were too big in any one category (12 points, 10 boards, 6 assists)...Marion ended up wtih 14, 9, and 4...Ming and Francis really picked it up in the second half and pushed the Rockets to a victory....interesting tidbit I heard on ESPN, the Suns as of right now are the only Western Conference team with a losing record...
The Rockets got beat in the 1st half but really performed well in the second. The key was that they were able to make crucial stops when they needed to. The Suns really had no answer down low for Yao. Marbury won the point guard battle between the two however Francis was able to get the win.
