If we want to beat great teams, we cannot play without Tracy. Our opponent did not play well tonight, so we could get the win. But the next game, we need Tracy -- not a little support, but a lot of support.

We still need to look forward. The way Miami will miss Shaq (O'Neal), they'll still need to play. Well, the league is not waiting for us or for Tracy to come back. We've got to hang in there. We can do better than that.

I have Mr. Alexander's trust and the chance to play in Houston. I believe I will have a great career in Houston. I want to win a championship in Houston and playing with Tracy McGrady, I believe we can do it.

With their shooting range, it took so long to recover, ... It's like when we play Dallas, when they have (big nights shooting).

I don't think I can play in the National Games. My contract (with the Rockets) d oesn't allow me though I really want to play (in the Games).

They just double-team so hard. At times they would just take the ball away from me. I couldn't see the weak side to find that open man. We know we can play. We have learned from the experience of playing without McGrady and know we can still compete.
