Lowry was super tired... Dragic should have had a better game, same goes to Lee... Still can't believe K-Mart had a 30 point game, and we still lost...
yes lol Don't understand not playing the bench and leaving Martin on the bench when he was the only one shooting well. Should've subbed Budinger in there for Lee when he missed sooo dam many open threes
Are you out of your mind? 20-0 run in the second half?!? That's playing hard? That's competing on both ends of the court?!? Really? Who is this? Flip Saunders??? GTFO with that BS, they played like garbage and got beat at home by an inferior team. The 2nd unit was completely exposed and McHale was useless. NOT GOOD IN MY BOOK.
They didn't give up, so it is a good sign. When a team shoots 48% on 14 made 3-pointers on a low pct. shot, most opponents will lose. Take those 3s away, Rocks walk away with win, so this lost is like those 'Any Given Sunday' type losses.
He only played 3 bench players and none of them are awful players. The scoring differential isn't that ridiculous when you factor in that their bench played 143 minutes and ours played 60.
Took the team WAYYYYYYYYY too long to realize that there wasn't a shot-blocker on the floor for the Bucks. Got down by 15 and then finally started going to the basket.
The Bucks were 6-10 before the game. The Rockets were on a 7 game win streak, and they dominate the Bucks. Who do you think people bet on?
I laugh when posters on this board call games "easy games" or start projecting records, right now Minnesota that looked so terrible against us is beating Dallas in the 4th, and this bucks team beat miami at home. there is no gimmie games in the NBA period, we'll lose to the Wizards if we don't come to play
I'm not claiming its the only reason we lost, but is anyone else bothered by the blatantly obvious travel committed by Gooden on the play that basically ended the game...?
Why the heck did McHale keep K-Mart on the bench for so long?! When Kobe is streaky, does Mike Brown put him on the bench, or make him sit on the bench in the beginning of the 4th?! No...
It was alright, Bucks got hot, can't do anything about it. We were so tired and Bucks kept on putting in athletic rebounders and raped us on the board. This one's def on McHale
With Dragic in it allows Lowry to stay on the floor without having to bring up the ball or defend the ball handler all the time.
Because the rest of the bench is either garbage or they are too boneheaded to work there way into the rotation. Either way, the bench BLOWS!!!
Bucks 3-pt shooting killed the Rockets tonight. Other than that, the Rockets basically out-performed the Bucks-- got more offensive rebounds, shot better on 2s, got to the line a bit more. They probably could have contested those better, but sometimes you got one of these nights. Like JVG said, it's a make or miss league.
!he '09ers are on the other side of the island; its going to take walt, locke, a hatch, and secret numbers to save them.
Rockets laid an egg tonight. Not too upset about it though since it was pretty much expected. Hopefully team can learn from this and move on. Seems like team had bad atmosphere tonight. Scola was frustrated. He is having a terrible season. Lowry was frustrated. This is what happens when he has no energy. Team has no energy Only Dalembert and Parsons brought it tonight. We desperately need a decent back up post defender because Scola and Patterson are terrible at it and defending the post.
thought momentum went back to the bucks on the bogus pass interference call on dragic. seriously though, iso ball when lowry isn't hitting on all cylinders is pretty tough to watch. Should have gone to martin and scola more. we missed a lot threes. they made them. ball game.
You can do something about it. It's called defense. Also, the Bucks were just as "tired" as the Rockets players. That is just an awful excuse. They had a day off yesterday, get untired. And yes McHale needs to play more than 8 ****ing players.
