Was that last shot actually drawn up? Did we really waste a timeout to draw up a Moochie Norris dribble exhibition?
Nice one Rudy. You just cost the Rockets the game. I guarantee an overtime loss, and I bet my reputation on it. (since my reputation is crap, it won't be a big loss.)
I'm beginning to think the coaching staff is not capable of dreaming up anything outside of an isolation. Can we mix in some ball and player movement please??!!!
'Pimp -- are you kidding? That was clearly a pick-n-roll screen 34 mountain high give-and-go with a picket fence split variation. Did you see us running the triangle-post-veer in there! It was pure genius. Now I admit to the casual fan it looked like a complete garbage isolation play, but that's just because they don't know their ball.
High pick and roll, whatever. IMO it's still a friggin ISO when no one passes the ball or comes to try and receive the ball. Moochie had no choice, but to hold onto the ball because no one tried to get open. I can't watch this ugly brand of basketball. Give me some ball and player movement. BTW Clutch, thanks for making me laugh...even if it was just for a second.
Gee, maybe going to the guy who just hit for a three point play would be a good idea!!! I am really sick and tired of Rudy's "coaching".
Let's see... we paid Moochie $6 million to ignore a set pick play?? wow.... I'll take a million... and I'm bigger than him too
You don't have ball movement plays on last second posessions... it most of the time IS an iso. Simple plays work best in the end. Yes the play that we ran was horrible, but you don't expect some crazy ball movement passing all around play for the last second shot - it should have just been francis or mobley iso.
when is moochie putting together a camp for skills teaching?? I know I learned dribbling in kindergarten but mooch seems really have it down...
with 1:17 left in regulation.. coming out of a timeout. anyone know exactly what the play was supposed to be? they call timeout just to set up an iso?
Can the Rockets send Oopsie Norris to the NBDL? He tries his best not to pass the ball. He gets paid 23 mill for his sorry a** skills. Oh my God. Francis was in the game but didn't get anywhere near the ball.
The Rockets run those iso plays all the time at the end of games. The defense always collapses on the man with the ball, so why don't we do this thing called a pass!!!
