    Here are my positives:

    <UL>[*] The fans not only showed up but they stuck around long enough to unleash a chorus of boos.
    [*] Jason Collier is just about ready to explode. I can feel it.
    [*] Thousands of Houston trees saved by not having to print up playoff tickets.
    [*] Steve Francis showed up for the game. Always a bonus.
    [*] I'm sick now after watching the Clipper performance, thus may take the day off work tomorrow.
    [*] Cost to re-sign Shandon Anderson decreasing with each game.
    [*] OK, we lost, but if we had Kelvin Cato in the lineup...
    [*] Cuttino unloads only 4 heaves... down from an average of 11.2.
    [*] Miami Heat no longer interested in Hakeem Olajuwon, turn attention to Kandi Ass.[/list]

    Win or lose Wiz is still one of the leagues best 3 point shooters.

    10. Clutch the Rockets mascot looks like he dropped a few pounds.
    9. The more gray hairs Rudy gets, the more distinguished he looks.
    8. New digital monitors on the sideline being tested by teams got the Spice Channel.
    7. Hakeem's black shoes made him look faster.
    6. Dan Langhi's falling down was not the result of shoelaces mistied.
    5. Rockets decided to give out foam fingers to fans entering the Compaq Center instead of rotten eggs and tomatoes.
    4. Free beer for players before, during and after the game.
    3. Rockets ball boy got some much needed playing time.
    2. The game was so short, Mobley didn't get a ticket even though his Lexus was double parked.
    1. Valium for everybody!

    Pushing ZRB's thread down. Keep posting, all.

    Positive:

    "Just wait 'til next year."

    Or is that a negative?

    Steve pushed the ball and played good defense [​IMG] on keyon dooling. Carlos played well.Hakeem was the 2nd best Nigerian center on the court [​IMG]

    This is the heypartner I love to read. [​IMG]

    A couple of questions...

    Will Steve's tardiness be discussed by the team?

    What does this refer to?

    It does feel like it's just going to be the immediate family within a few weeks, eh?

    What do I look like, Homer Simpson? Wait, don't answer that.

    It's an oil refinery! [​IMG]

    Besides, I was off last night, but (thankfully) still missed the game.

    There was a game last night?

    If the Rockets are going to miss the playoffs, might as well miss them by alot. Last night was just 1 step closer to picking up some badly needed ping-pong balls in the lotto.

    I read somewhere that Steve's absence was excused. He went home to Maryland after the Heat game, and told Rudy prior to Clips game that he would be late. Can't remember where I saw that, however. Maybe on the ESPN recap. If you can trust them.

    Yep, the Clippers had a workout last night, and the Rockets were kind enough to host it.

    it's a repetitive-motion injury often brought on by stroking computer keyboard's too much.

    So, how do you get the stats up so fast? Is it a secret?
