    Lets see if you can lose by 60. There's still time. I can't wait unitl tomorrow's game. Maybe you can become the first team to record a triple-digit loss.

    LOL! I knew when I came here there would be a really spiffy post from ZRB at the top of the page. They only lost by 39 so lighten up! ;)

    Hey, I can feel this playoff race coming on strong. We're only 20 games out. I'm sure that NOW we'll go on that 29 game winning streak we've all been expecting.

    I thought it was interesting how Redd was coming off of all kinds of picks to hit open jumpers and Dan Langhi was trying to beat his defender off the dribble just like Moochie and KT and Cat and Steve. Apparently the stare down dribble drive is what's being accepted as an offense by RudyT.

    Could we get a game report? The score indicates that we really laid an egg, but what happened? Let me guess, 30% shooting, no defense, and we dribbled out the time clock on more than one occasion? Am I close?

    That was UGLY!!

    You got almost everything but one thing: We got outcoached. When will RT learn that running iso after iso into amoeba zones won't cut it!! And will our guards ever go over the pick to defend?

    And one more thing: we were outhustled. Far and away the worst effort of the year! Next game will be a gut check.

    :(

    The no defense part is right. Rox went right to the "see if you can top this" game. Clang! Clang! Clang! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

    It blew open in the third. Some nice play from EG, KT, SF before.
    Cat was off. We missed him. Of course, there was no pick up on the other end or team help to cover his temporarily absent shot.
    Wally next in line!

    Micheal Redd was on fire! And props to Cassell. Astonishing passes, perfect buckets immediately after. Very nice. I still love Sam.

    ZRB: You ever get tired of being the first negative post on the board every night? Just curious.

    You know it Jeff! I look forward to these losses, so I can be the first person to post something negative!

    X34,

    I guess you are implying that the Rockets had no "D" or "O"?

    I guess one day we'll be able to learn how to pass?
    :confused:

    Someone might want to mention to the Rockets and the coaching staff that they're allowed to run more than one offensive set.

    I bet Chauncey scores atleast 35 tomorrow. Garnett will have an okay game for obvious reasons. But Wallyworld will probably go 7-8 from the three point land or something.
