    I will think that is one of the reason why Rox is among the best Rebounds team, because we have more missed shot to rebound ;)

    I feel sick and depressed when Alston attempts his fast break jumpshot. On the other hand when he rims threes I hope there is a Rockets player to rebound it. Come on Alston if you can't make your shots, spend few (many) extra hours in the gym and improve your frickin jumper!

    Make the Robert Deniro face,shrug my shoulders and then ask myself "Did you really think that shot was going in". I swear, Skip got more bircks lined up than George young and Frank lucas combined.

    I look at Mike's shooting since the first 2 games: 22-76 for 28.94% from the field. The funny thing is Rafer is actually better over the same stretch, at 19/61 and 31.14%. Then I look at Shane Battier's 37% shooting this season. Then I glance over at Luther Head's 36% shooting and 10% from 3 pt... Then to Bonzi's 37% shooting and 1-8 from 3...

    Then I wonder how any of the Rockets get assists off of players not name Yao and Tracy.

    :( if Rafer shoots and makes it, i take a shot, if he misses, I start to cry and yell at the players on the screen. I've been sober for far too long.

    Rafer Alston and Mike James is a pain in the ass to watch. When Rafer shoots, you get a "OH NO!" feeling in your head. When Mike James has the ball, you get a "OH NO!" feeling in your head cause he's so damn reluctant to pass the fricking ball! That idiot is the biggest ball hogger I've ever seen next to Kobe! We don't need a shoot first, can't pass guard like Mike James. GET RID OF HIM!

    first I shake my head, then look to see who is under the basket to get the rebound( unless it hits the top of the backboard and goes out of bounds) , then when he misses, I always say the same exact thing everytime, "Damn Rafer is garbage

    Mike is different than Rafer..., because I feel Mike James is in a temporary shooting slump, but Rafer is in a state of what doctors call "Permanent brickidous"....

    LOL, that's exactly why I am betting $100 Bonzi will have more than 15 rebounds against spurs tonight! The odds is 15/1. Weee, I hope I can get a new laptop before new year!

    Bonzi needs to play big tonight if we have any chance on winning.

    I'm leaving for Dinner with my wife and kids, which would never happen in the past. However, that last shot by Rafer 8 seconds into the shot clock made up my mine.

    I'm out like a lite
