    TH, you just have to purchase the Sports & Entertainment package. It's $4.95/mo. Call 1-800-COMCAST and they'll flip it on immediately.

    Weak link tonight = Outlaw

    Ballhog on offense, lost on defense.

    and the point guards have been terrible as well. where's that vet experience and stability that Blakey was supposed to bring to the playoffs?

    Watching Mutombo on the floor was rough. I feel bad for the guy, but he shouldn't be playing at his age.

    LOL @ Payton. He's giving grief to Brooks for being a Duck. Bobby Moore responded with a bit of Duck pride right back. It's like a Civil War in the NBA Halftime show.

    We really need a point guard. We need someone who can keep their man in front of them at that position.

    The Blazers' doctor told the NBA reporter that he thinks it's a ruptured knee tendon.

    Roy 19/6

    LA 16/7

    Yao 5/5

    . . . and we're up 2??

    Our bench needs to step it up. You can't ask Roy and LA to go 16/23 again in the 2nd half. Travis & Rudy need to step it up. Their bench is killing ours.

    The Twin Towers expriment is no good when the other side hits all their jumpers. That was unreal.

    Yao is playing like a guy afraid of collecting fouls. If I were him, I'd play like a superstar who the refs would never dare to foul out. He has committed several this game that were NOT called, including the blatant one on the Roy drive.

    So the signs are good, if the Rockets would just cool off a bit on their jumpers!

    I think Outlaw has a negative BBIQ.

    Sergio was absolute garbage. At least Blake digs in and scraps tooth and nail - I can get behind a guy that is giving 110% and just getting beat.
