Did anyone else get nervous when Bullard was taken out?

    Bullard made some huge 3-point shots in the third quarter and got the Compaq Center crowd going crazy. Was I the only one surprised when Rudy took Bullard out shortly after the 4th quarter began? Calvin Murphy surely didn't agree with the substitution. I was really surprised that the Rockets didn't skip a beat and just kept packing it on the Spurs. Everyone was hot in the 4th.

    Bullard was GOD tonight!

    I got very nervous when Cato was fouled and lost his balance and fell on Francis's legs. This is the same thing as a chop block in football, which has ended many players careers. Good thing he is still young and flexible, or it could have been a serious injury.

    Bullard had a great game. Wish we could get shots going down from long range on a more consistent basis.

    I believe Bullard said in the Chronicle today something about having gotten tired in the fourth and asked to be taken out of the game.
