Rockets are doing ALL of the Mugging---and getting ALL the calls....Big Baby needs to grow a pair and elbow that PUNK Artest right in the face when he goes through the lane....no,REALLY!!
hey hey thats whats scals for, have him elbow that punk across the face, it's not like if he's ejected it'll kill our chances of winning
How come no Darius yet... Getting me mad that Scal is playing and Darius is not!
Either the Rockets just came from a scrimmage with the Texans or they are trying to make this game into some kind of "toughness" statement. Either way it makes for a crappy game with these referees not having any kind of grip/feel on the happenings.

Playing basketball as a wrestling match is no way to win a championship. Heck, Rockets are always injured one would think they might get a clue and not put themselves into so much danger of getting injured in a meaningless pre season game. Can't stand Artest he is going to be a big detriment to that team not a help in the long run.

TMac's penetration is way up, look at his FT #s, 9 shots at the stripe in 12 minutes

A lot more teams that the C's face will be the instigators this time round. I'd get used to this. Houston won't be the last.
