    We got the win and had a devastating comeback.

    Who cares about the petty "LOF" vs. "LOH" squabbles after a game like that?!

    I think 2pat should start, he's better than mook in nearly all areas. Patterson can play when there's a fire under his arse (e.g. when sampson called him out or now that he's coming off the bench).

    Delfino and Douglas were great this game.

    Harden was his usual amazing self.

    Parsons and Lin were a hot mess, but they redeemed themselves for the most part in the 2nd half. Not a good game from them, but over all they stepped up when it was needed.

    And the Bucks... oh the bucks. I can hear the tinkling of frozen tears in Milwaukee... losing is painful. Losing in a blow out more so. Being blown out when you're leading by 18 in the half?

    Priceless. :grin:

    19-14. Just looking at that number makes me shudder in pleasure.

    Last years Rockets would of lost this game. I love this new team. I still miss Scolas scoops though.

    His First half was just dreadful, but he started the third strong and he sparked us before the head leakage.

    Patterons' 3s helped maintain the lead when the Bucks were still in the game.

    Hmmm... maybe if Delfino played against SAS and OKC, those games might have been close. Darn you, Manu! LOL!

    Next Spurs game, keep Delfino as far away from Manu and his sausages as possible.

    That said, Lin Parsons and Morris ranged from ineffective to disastrous.

    Lol. Never seen commentators so full of it. I understand being homers and praising the bucks on every possible opportunity. but got to give credit where credit is due. In their minds bucks are probably the 4th best team in the east. And just underestimating the rockets throughout the game. "They are no SA, How are even turning the ball over against this team?" Smh. They make drexler look like JVG

    The Bucks coaches didn't do their job. There were very few picks set against Toney for free layups and wide open shots. After the midway point it was too late anyway, McHale had already started to switch switch switch defense on the perimeter.

    I guess they thought a blow out from the onset would have been boring so they spotted the Bucks 18pts lol:grin:

    Well the Bucks did really lose it though - in that one quarter they couldn't score at all and it really hurt them where the Rockets built the lead. But of course that's not the only reason why the Rockets won. The Rockets have way more fight.

    Well slow and disappointing start by Lin, but he salvaged an otherwise 'doodoo' game by him in the 4th.

    It's good that Rockets have players like Delfino to come through when it was a clang fest early on. But boy, were those Bucks announcers bitter :-D
