Also Houston went to the line more, and you want to blame it on the officials? Yao went to the line 13 times, oh and also...Daniel Gibson, a Houston native...had more boards then Yao. Put a body on him why dont you. I came here to say "Yall played good, even with Yao out on those bad calls you all gave us a run for our money." Since yall gotta gripe about everything and cant say "good game" or anything close for that matter, imma start spittin facts, that you wont, and dont like!
Yao has been the focal point of our offense.He gets doubled almost every time so that opens it up for Rockets shooters.As soon as they took Yao out with cheap fouls ,Lebron took over and that left us with zombie Mcgrady who gave us nothing.How hard is that to understand?

Maybe McGrady is your problem then, and not the officials?
Yes, Yao got a couple of cheapies last night. Satisfied?
The officials didn't give the Rockets that game.
See you on Feb 26.
"See you in Houston"--Yao
The refs did help with the outcome, but Tracys' Lack of interest is what won the game for you. The Cavs should have thanked him in their postgame interviews.
The Cavs won, but I am not impressed their roster is weak. The Rockets got jobbed by the refs, and the 4th game in 5 nights killed TinMac.
Boston looks good, LA looks good, then you have a bunch of teams that might win it if everything breaks right for them...the Cavs and Rockets are both in that group.
Not real contenders yet.

How hard is this to understand?....I know Yao is the focal point of our offense....but Z is a major part of ours. If LeBron took over...maybe Artest or Battier should have stopped him. And Yes T-Mac "blew it", but wow...thats not the officials fault. I like the Rockets...I know Yao got bad fouls called on him....but I dont care. You lost the game...we won the game. We both had our problems...but on that night....at least that night..we had the better team.Yao has been the focal point of our offense.He gets doubled almost every time so that opens it up for Rockets shooters.As soon as they took Yao out with cheap fouls ,Lebron took over and that left us with zombie Mcgrady who gave us nothing.How hard is that to understand?
ok, great. Hopefully,next time we will get to see a better game where the refs don't help determine the outcome instead of the players.
And I hope that as well. Dont get me wrong, Im agreeing with you with the fact that the refs screwed Yao over.ok, great. Hopefully,next time we will get to see a better game where the refs don't help determine the outcome instead of the players.
cavs not contenders?
Cavs are obvious contenders....don't you ever put the Rockets in the same class as the
Cavs
Cavs have a legit chance to win it all..they have the best player in the game, a great 2nd option who can shoot lights out, a very good center and excellent role players who can shoot...which is what you need to win it all.
why do you think Boston fans are so concerned by the Cavs?
Who is the Cavs great 2nd option? And please don't say Mo Williams....
You guys are starting fricken Ben Wallace at the PF spot, the guy has no offense at all....the Cavs are good, they are just not great.
Drink all the kool aid you like, they are Lebron and a bunch of average joes.....and I have seen where that eventually goes.

The Cavs were a few rebounds from beating the Celtics last year, if it wasn't for PJ Brown's great 4th quarter the cavs would of been in the finals...Mo williams is the perfect 2nd option for Lebron, a guy who can spread the floor with his shooting and give you 20 on any given night.
Ben Wallace is still a quailty defender who van rebound and block shots. the perfect role player. you are obviously wrong, the Cavs are a GREAT team. They have great role players which is what you need to win it all.
they cavs are head and shoulders better than they were last year and are the best defensive team in the NBA....they have what you need to win the chip...a great superstar, great role players and great defense...PERIOD.
THERE ARE 3 MAIN CONTENDERS
CELTICS
LAKERS
CAVS
Thats it....no one else can win it all. One of those 3 will win it all
Ben Wallace is a great defensive option in spurts. He doesn't see time in the 4th anyway.
Cavs>Rockets
Cavs are just deeper than the rockets and they can sustain players in foul trouble
Didn't ben Wallace win a ring?
Yup, I'm sure they would have done just fine with Lebron sitting on the bench with four fouls and only playing half of the game.
I would have thought that as well, however Cleveland has surprised me with what they CAN do without LeBron. It dosent come all the time, but they CAN do good.
no , what a bunch of delusional esYup, I'm sure they would have done just fine with Lebron sitting on the bench with four fouls and only playing half of the game.
I still don't see the balance in the Cav's offense. It's basically Lebron driving and everyone else shooting spot up 3's. I'm not convinced that kind of offense can win against a juggernaut defensive team like BOS.
I really want to see BOS-CLE go at it again. It'll be interesting to see if CLE can dominate them at home like they did in the playoffs.
You must have missed the 6 straight high pick and rolls with Mo and Z at the start of the 4th. 5 possessions ended up in scores, Mo with 7, Z 2, AV 2.
But most importantly...LeBron 0. Thats what they can do.
you Rockets fans are starting to look like a bunch of babies. Face it, we won, you lost. Your team lost to one of the 3 elite teams, it's nothing to get upset about.
Seriously. Its not like we're saying the Rockets suck. We would be lying if we said that. They are a good team, and put up a good fight, without one of their best. Thats something to be proud of.
I actually take it positively. We played horribly and still should have won. See you in Houston.
Flopping epidemic strikes Cleveland, Rockets lose
"Seldom do I find it necessary to publicly criticize the officiating of any athletic event. I think most can agree that officials at all level are placed in a difficult situation. Their job is often thankless, and there always remains the distinct realization that most of their decisions are going to be second-guessed on a routine basis.
With that being said, the officials who officiated the game between the Rockets and Cavaliers ought to donate whatever money they earned as a result of officiating the game."........
