As a Houstonian, I am tired of sportscasters, anchormen, journalists, and anyone who suspects themselves to have the least bit of wittiness headline ANY problem related to Houston with the tired "Houston, you have a problem" line. 

"HAHAHAHA, oh did you see how they took that really famous line from Apollo 13 and applied it in this situation. Genius I tell you. Genius."

Yao's leg, McGrady's back, smog, obesity, and of course David Carr, are all great stories but come on...we've heard that line, and we get the reference.

Which brings me to the point—the Houston Rockets are facing a very difficult team. A team that has every strength the Rockets possess, plus more. Defense, experience, shooting, talent, chemistry, coaching...just like the Rockets. In addition however, they have outstanding depth. Whether it is veterans Kyle Korver and Matt Harpring, or relatively new players like Milisap and Brewer. Of course, Houston has T-Mac, whose greatness is as predictable as an eight ball, while Deron Williams and Boozer give a night-in and night-out effort. So we do have a problem...let's just call it...

Houston We Have A Conundrum. 

In McGrady We Trust.

Nothings Comes Gravy for McGrady.

Get Some Booze and D(e)rone or TMAC-ATTACK! 

No Jazz in Utah...No Rocket Fuel Without Yao.
