Our guys can't even make a low post pass. All the damn deflections, mainly from Francis. It's one thing since his passing isn't known for being good, but it's another thing when he can't even score quality buckets. I'm gonna side with the fact that our guys are tired. We're sagging on defense, giving up layups, and wide open 3s. The refs pissed me off in the first half. So many fouls I saw when Yao got the ball. One that pissed me off tremendously when Briant Grant pushed Yao in midair and caused him to land on his knee. The result was a Rocket foul on the other end on the fastbreak meanwhile Yao was clutching his knee. That guys our future, and they don't even give him calls when he's blatantly being pushed around going up in midair. Thank God he has those enormous legs because I was worrying about a season ending injury there.
Did they lose yet???? I was watching but is there still need? Ming is shut down by short guy and the team is missing all the shots. Meanwhile, the Heat is shooting over what 60%? Oh well, next game. But it's OK, you knew something was going to happen like this. Grant has Ming's number, that's simple. And shots are not falling tonight.
I'm guessing there will be 10 new threads tonight, professing how much the rox suck, francis sux, yao sux, van gundy sux, and how we'll miss the playoffs b/c of losses like this.
Just logged on so I'm not sure if it matters - especially the way ROX are playing - but NBA TV has the game on as a free preview. Perhaps with Yao's last slam, there's our rallying cry...
yea miamis record is nt really indicative of how the team is...I mean obviously they arent as talented as the rockets but remember they started off like 0-13234235 or something similar and now they are right in teh east playoff race
rockets r not suck, they just won over Pacers and Magic. 3 game of 4 days. Be fair! Im happy for their 3 road game performance even there was a lost tonite. Thatwas why when 98% said a must win I was worried a liitle bit. 2% did not mean no true
