    Yeah, some nice standup D by Channing. He just has to stand his ground and not go for his pumpfakes. He won't block it anyway

    Gotta get on those boards. Houston is too good in the half court to give them more possessions.

    It's rare to see Roy this aggressive this early. Guess he and the team feels this game is especially important. We need that 4th seed, dang it!

    We want LaMarcus to play more physical down low, but the referees will not let him. Every time he tries to back his man in, they flop and he get's called for the offensive foul. Just another example of favortism in the NBA. Shaq did that all the time and never got called.

    i thought drexler did all the rockets home games, but i guess not this one. figured he'd be good for this game.

    No......totally different. Scola was 98% flop, Joel was about 5% flop.

    Frye's D sucks. He either lets the other team get an open shot, or fouls trying to defend.

    Frye is killing us. Fumbling the easy rebound and then moving screen.

    Yao lowered his shoulder. No flop necessary.

    Let's let Channing Frye play Yao Ming straight up. Brilliant Nate McMoron.
