Very well said, although I am not sure my health can take watching bull**** like this. That ****ing scumbag Smith is garbage he couldn't even hit 50 ****ing % from the line and McDouche just sits there watching him single handedly piss the game away. I hope Pop has a massive ****ing coronary hate that mother****er with a passion and while it was "smart coaching" (unlike the dunce that coaches out team) it was about as gutless a move as I have ever seen.
Yeah, this is not like that Memphis game. The Rockets stormed back in that one and made the necessary plays down the stretch. They just got screwed by the refs. Tonight, they screwed themselves. You look at 2 of the 3 losses to the Spurs this year and they were games the Rockets should've won. Why'd they lose? Horrible free throw shooting and over 20 turnovers. Sorry, but if Josh Smith can't make at least half his free throws(he was 12-26 for 46%), then this is gonna happen every single game and why shouldn't it? Also, McHale has got to stop with the forced minutes restriction on Dwight. He did wind up playing 27 tonight, but that wasn't enough. He needs to up it to 30 considering he's got only 2 more games left before the playoffs start. As for Harden, well he can kiss the MVP goodbye.
As long as Dorsey will not play any minutes in the playoff, I will be gladly to take the Josh 50% FT all day. The Spurs was just a block away to choke away this game, if they lose, Pop will look like an idiot also.
Yup It annoys the hell outa me that the refs can't get it right, but we lost this game on the free-throw line.
We were the worst ft shooting team this year, and we got exploited. Again. Those who are horrible at fts, should practice a million shots this offseason. This major weakness ain't going away. Btw, **** the Spurs, **** the zebras.
Practicing free throws in the gym don't help as much as people think it does. Dwight is said to make all of his FTs in practice, it's half a mental thing.
McH: I didn't employ that strategy, I'm just coaching. We missed some FTs. I'll live with Josh up there shooting.
Not panicking but we really need to figure what were going to do with this hack a nonsense in the playoffs. This may sound crazy but it may be convenient we stay at 6th seed if we can no longer get that 2nd seed.
Im going with this as well. the concern is that the spurs will be flopping like crazy and its going to be like those old school utah series where they play really dirty and we grow to hate them.. We are all going to lose tons of respect for SA because of it. We will admire SA more if we win the series but will hate them if we dont.. I think we can win but its going to be up to the refs. SA will prevail in that case. this flopping makes it almost unwatchable. NBA is so tough to watch not nearly as entertaining as it used to be. This flailing thing has to stop. Ive taken long breaks and dont get into like I have in the past. The NBA and rockets are almost like cigarettes to me. Kinda pointless and shi**tty.
Can we fall all the way to the 7th? I'd say start resting players for the damn playoffs, whoever we play.
