ClutchCity.net Game Thread: Rockets @ Grizzlies 1/27/2003

oh man i forgot about pau "every time i drive i'm fouled and must complain about it no matter how many free throws i've already shot" gasol. he shot something like 18 free throws against us last time and was complaining every time there was a no call like he needed 30 free throws. stfu if you have over 10 ft's. and is it just me or does no team miss ft's against us anymore. golden state beat us cuz they only missed one. san antonio was the 27th ft% team and only missed one until there was like 10 seconds left, and today the bulls only miss one. all close games and the other teams basically shot 100% when they are like 70-75% teams normally. what gives. bad karma from the nick anderson incident???

 

So was I until the last game. Hehe, no one seemed to care about my conversion. Where were u when I declared my outrage in the Bulls thread?

Poor RocketGuy3's posts go ignored most of the time. Even the ones I put some thought into...

 

I was reading your other posts defending the guards at all cost.

 

Grizzlies 99
Rockets 71


Cato: 5/6, 10pts, 8reb
Ming 4/5, 10pts, 5reb
MoT: 1/6. 2pts, 0 reb
Griff: 2/14, 5pts, 2reb
Posey: 5/8, 10pts, 8reb
Mobley: 5/14, 12pts, 2 assists
Moochie: 5pts, 5assist
Francis: 6/21, 17pts, 5assists, 10reb, 8 TO's

Gasol: 32pts, 19reb
J-Will: 21pts, 10assists, 0 TO's
Gooden: 18pts, 10reb

 

Heh heh... Francis! The Turnover Master!

 

This one is going to be ugleeeee folks.

Memphis 102
Rockets 79

Here are my stat predictions:

Steve, 6-23, 15 points, 5 assists, 6 turnovers
Cat, 5-18, 11 points
Yao, 1-3, 4 points, 2 rebounds
MoT, 1-11, 2 points, 1 rebound

 

how come everybody else can get the ball except Yao? come on

 

I think we are going to see more ugly ball-hogging guard plays from our very own Odd Couple and Rox will lose badly to run their losing streak to FIVE. 105 to 91, Grizzlies.

Yao will continue his dismal production with 12 points and 7 boards.

 

your signature should be like this
My Dream Starting Line-up!!!
PG - "The Turn Over ballog"
SG - "The ballhog"
SF - "Boki"
PF - "EGriff"
C - "The Dynasty"

 

Steve Francis after another loss to Grizzlies,"They didn't beat us, we beat ourselves!"

Overheard grizzlies commentators,"The Rockets are using the Iso to full effect today...it's the end of the third quarter and the Rockets are down by 20 and Ming's gone for 60% on field goals shooting 3 for 5!"

And another commentator," Look! Yao's just 2 FEET from the rim and Francis tries a wild shot over Gasol.....and Yao had J-Will on 'im!

 

Supprise -

Rockets 70
Memphis 69

Sorry, coolpet, Yao still 1-3, 4 points, 2 rebounds

 

I predict that SF will get 22 points on 10 from 7562 FG attempts. Yao will get 2 points from his single shot that SF allowed him. Rudy will get hit by a water bottle thrown from the fans (rox fans). Rice will remain injured. Cat will walk out in disgust.

 

Lose. No passing of the ball = Grizzlies 97 Rockets 85.

 

Looking into my crystal ball....

Willie Nelson will astound his fans by swimming the English Channel!


And the Rockets will win, finally realising that when Yao Ming has a good game, they usually win! But it will be close.

 

Loss five of an 8 game losing streak...

 

We're going to loose people. The Rockets are down right now, they don't have faith in themselves, more importantly, their coach. (who could blame them) I've been saying for months now that the problem is Rudy. My thoughts and feelings are starting to be noticed by not only memebers of this board, but with sports people around the nation. Hate us Rudy haters if you want, but you can't deny our voice any longer.

Rockets 72

Grizzly's 95

Rockets run the same tired "offense"

32 TO's 8 assists Yao 2-3 with 15 boards and 6 blocks. Rudy states "we played a good game, those guys are championship bound."

 

AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

I'm so annoyed by the Rockets sorryass play!!!!!!

Who the hell do the Grizzlies or Bulls have to stop Yao Ming? Why don't they just keep going to him?

Francis, forget "it"...GET A FREAKIN CLUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Look at my previous post about the numbers. That's how our boxscore has looked since the season started. It seems like everyone is thinking toooooooooooooooooo hard, and Rudy's thinking about all the wrong things. The defense is a way of life, it's not an accomplishment. It's as important as having shoes or shorts in an NBA game. The offense doesn't need to suffer this much.

I don't know who said it (on the board) but I'd bet on Francis saying "Well they didn't play better for 48 minutes, but they have mroe poitns, and that's fluky."

We deserve an award from the NBA. Most Frustrating team. At least the Cavs lose consistently.

 

Tmo gets a chance to play and gets more than 2 shots

 

Of course J-Will will live in the lane tonight against Francis and setup his teammates all night. Of course we have noone who can cover Gasol. Of course they will leave Girecek and person open for 3's all day. That being said, the Rockets should win, but I'm not so sure.

 

That is very funny Let's see, 7562/(48*60)= 2.62.
So basically, SF has to shoot every 2.62 seconds
