Steve Francis post game interview: "I'd take that shot again"

MacBeth -
Thanks, I needed that!

 

What did we tell you about talking too much, MacBeth?

 

I think he meant Doug Collins, who is often confused with the other Doug, that defensive specialist from Sacramento.

 

But I didn't name names, or report on Operation SuperBowl was the Coaches' fault! I only spoke in broad general ter;lm/ //cvccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc................


WHAT I MEANT TO SAY WAS THAT IT WAS ALL A JOKE, THE C.T.B.F. IS A FICTICIOUS ORGANIZATION, AND THERE IS NOTHING TO READ HERE. ALL IS SUNSHINE AND HAPPINESS.



SIGNED, LITTLE GIRL

 

Someone had the box checked.

 

When Steve dribbles out a clock like that no one knows where to cut or drift to.... he takes up half the floor with all his dribbling. One or two quick moves should be all it takes to get inside with his athleticism. He needs to take lessons from Ginobli just cut and drive fearlessly.

 

NP...Sorry I used more than 5 words, though. I know how that bothers some people.

 

I bet JVG is thinking "I better save a timeout next time" and if you ask him he will admit it. On the other hand, SF thinks "I will do it again next time to prove you all wrong". SF is too stubborn.

 

You know how frustrated the peeps can get once their lips get tired

 

LMOA!!!!!!

 

Sorry this is off topic but...

Do you know Matt Berriman, Ryan Tear?

 

I agree with this... Stevie likes to dance with the ball going side to side, whereas Mobley goes in a straight line and knows when there is space to shoot (whether it would be a good shot or bad) but in this situation, having Mobley shoot a quick shot as he is used to doing, would be preferable to Stevies dancing towards the end of the quarter... maybe VG should start looking at Cat as an ISO option at the end of quarters/games with Yao setting the pick.

Is this a trick question? No, I don't know them.

 

That's Steve's biggest problem: He won't even acknowledge that there are things he could do better, or areas in which he can improve. The guy really thinks he's on the same level as the greats.

 

Do you remember the last time the Rockets were in the playoffs? The Chuck Wagon was on the court. On one play, he took up his favorite spot on the floor and held out his hands for the ball. It was Mobley's first year, his first and so far last trip to the playoffs. Mobley didn't even look at him, just ran past and blew a layup, with Barkley shaking his head as he and the rest had to run back on defense.

As Steve represents the same sort of player, I'm sure he could reserve a sad head-shake for Steve, too.

Someone also mentioned JVG burning timeouts. True enough, but would he burn so many timeouts if his team knew how to play basketball?

 

When JVG burned that final timeout, I screamed NO!!! When Steve was looking for an open three I screamed No!!!!!!! Bad decisions by player and coach.

 

Not sure if you were kidding but that's probably what they should have done...best clutch shooter on the team

 

Is there are stats showing how many dribbles by each team during the game. I can bet the Rox are number 1.

 

I thought I heard Charles say positive things about Yao last night...I definitely think their attitude towards the Rox have changed since JVG has taken over, but with Steve's bad year and everything, its just magnifying the situation...

Go Rox!!!

 

Why not Yao take a 3?
