    I wouldn't mind giving Novak another look either.

    Well Bonzi went 4-15 tonight so If we play like this again and Brooks gets more minutes I doubt we are in trouble.

    Bonzi's absence will definitely hurt the Rockets.
    Say whatever you want about Wells' shooting, but he is one of the few guys on this team who create mismatches on many nights, constantly attacks the basket, and sometimes even draws double-teams

    Yao might get burnt against Raptors tomorrow because Bargnani is starting. Yao has to crush him on the offensive end so he doesn't get a chance to launch 3's on Yao at the other end.

    Bargnani is in a slump right now. Hopefully stays that way one more night.

    Don't we have to play a zone against a team with a center that can shoot the trey?

    Definitely, its gonna hurt. He is the only one who has similar playing style as T-mac's. His absence forces us to have a new starting lineup. Too bad, we are short handed right now. :(

    No way. A zone encourages the offense to shoot and Toronto has six shooters that are 40% or better from downtown. Not to mention Bosh's mid-range game is near automatic and he also has 3pt range.

    lol, since it's Bonzi, they'll probably need size and go with Snyder. Who knows, maybe they go small?

    They said maybe he is out. Let's hope he toughs it out and plays tonight, cause we really need his style of play in the game. If he can't go, I would like to see Steve get another shot. He played good in more games than he did bad this season. But he seems to be the only person that got a 3 game limit on bad games. If that were the case for everyone, I think most of the players would not be playing at all.

    PLEASE Tmac...read what Scola is saying......



    "Scola said. "If not, we're not going to win. It is real important for us. Every team that has had good years, every team that has won a championship, plays as a team. They have three, four, five options. You can see Phoenix, Detroit, San Antonio — they have three, four, sometimes five options.

    "We need to play good and win without one of them. They may have a bad night. You need to be able to win anyway."


    Play as a team and you have a chance dominate the ball, and the team withers.

    scola's humbleness and passion and professionalism reminds me that of tom brady...
    i'm extremely gratified and happy that he is a teammate of yao, i mean a big part of the rockets :D

    and that is an understatement...

    does questionable mean out? If he is out, let play the small ball, start mike james who should know his former team well.
