18-10 Spurs at the end of the first.
Season low for the Rockets for 1st quarter.

Damn, late on this one tonight.
Spurs up 15-8 on Houston early. Tim and Tony doing most the work so far. Massenburg beat Malik off the bench for the second straight game.

Extraordinary team D, first time in what seems like a long while. Rockets shooting .238
It also helps that TMac is playing like a pussy, leaving it to a gimpy Sura to do all the driving.
18-10
Revenge must be had. Hopefully the Spurs can win by 25+. Also that was an awesome defensive play at the end of the quarter.
The Spurs are playing suffocating defense in the 1st. Really clogging the lane and contesting shots.
Pick and roll with Tim and Tony aren't working quite as well as Tony and Rasho (reason, Yao doesn't hedge as well as Howard does).
18-10 Don't expect only 10 points next quarter, though.
Rasho has free throws, he never gets free throws.
Tmac won't do the same thing this time.
I think Spurs holding them under under 70 if the defense continues like this.
Im in Houston, listening to Rockets announcers raving about Spurs defense--but note the Rockets are lucky to be so close--which means we aren't taking advantage of their poor scoring due to our defense..
I still wanna see the Barry brothers go at it.
houston is plauying dencent d though
That's why we're not blowing them out.houston is plauying dencent d though
They have no answer for Duncan though.
Manu banged his hand going to the hole on that foul. Only made 1 of 2 FTs.
Manu with 2 fouls, now but still in there. Really aggressive in driving to the hole.
Rasho is really defending Yao great.
ming has 2 fouls
take that back three now with the offensive foul
Only score Yao got was when Rasho lost him on a pick and roll -- Rasho looked pretty lost for some reason then. Man D has been solid though.
Rasho always seems to give Yao trouble.
Barry scores, oh that Barry 25-17.
Rasho with a rebound. Spurs need to build up this lead.
MadDoc
You know, even though Rasho isn't scoring...he is really hustling and running in transition.
The Spurs are not able to get into the lane much now, as expected. They need to not pass up shots and take them in rhythm.
Rasho throws Yao to floor but he gets up and then hits shot.
Pop mad = time out.
go Spurs.
Yao gets a 13 footer. Rasho's a bit gassed, but so is Yao.
Tony with the turnover after trying to fly. Houston comes back with the basket.![]()
Parker bailed out after overpenetrating.
Starters less Manu now. Devin is struggling a bit. The Rockets are starting to hit their shots. TP is active and gets to the line. That's the way to play.
9 shots missed in a row and game closer, Yao almost got 4th but changed call, Parker hits 2.
Suns Losing by 6 with 1.33 to GO!
Tony ignoring his teammates.
SUNS ARE GOING TO LOSE TO THE WIZARDS!
I'm already satisfied for the evening, and our game isn't even over yet.
