ClutchFans Game Thread: Mavericks @ Rockets 5/5/2005 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 6)

yeh no biggie, we'll take this one

 

I expect a blow out win for the rockets!!!

117 Houston vs 102 Dallas

 

Me too. I think we will win this one to set up the final dramatic showdown in game 7 with the whole world watching. I am sure David Stern will love it.

 

The 4th quarter of game 5 was a glimpse of the domination to come as Yao and Tracy played perfectly off each other. Yaos game is evolving in front of us. Dunks replaced layups as an ANGRY Yao Ming commanded the paint.

What we are witnessing is the evolution of this Rockets squad, and evolution cannot be stopped. Our Rockets are evolving at an accelerated rate in front of our eyes. We will win game 6, setting the PROPER stage, GAME 7, for the rebirth of the most glorious nickname in Houston sports history, CLUTCH CITY.

Its coming people.

 

i just hope the crowd is loud and on there feet the whole game

 

Rockets win. 101-92 and also take Game 7

Dirk dreams about what could've been.

Can someone pls tell the backcourt to feed the post when they're not doing the bigmac pick&roll combo?

Since we're gonna be called for just breathing on Dirk, can we at least make it worth it and beat him like a rented mule?

 

A Rocket win! I don't care about the scare!

 

hey guys i got some good news!!! Rockets have lost 3 in a row. That means that they are going to go on to a winning streak. Remember how after every big winning streak, we fall 2-3 games in a row. Well same thing is happening. That means we will win game 6 and 7. So Bring on the Phoenix.

 

i expect a great game for the whole team, especially our 1 and 2 punch.

Rockets win by 11!
and continue the momentum and win game 7!!!

 

I think the X-factor so far for the Mavs have been Jason Terry. He's been burning the Rockets the past 3 games with his 3 point shooting and play making. Can someone find a way to stop this guy??

.571 .696 .900 0.80 0.60 2.8 0.8 4.6 5.4 4.6 18.0

He's shooting 69% from 3 point range and 57% overall while averaging 18pts.

 

I had a dream last night that we lost 104-97. If we get too cocky, we will lose.

 

It's all about TMac- He came here for this purpose.

We must use Bowan and Padgett on Dirk.

TMac must have strength in the 4th qtr.

TMac this game is on you.

Now get that crazy lazy eye going and that look of death...

It is TMac time in the city of Houston.

 

although i am so upset to the past 3 games, i still believe that Rocket will win.
ROX:102
MAV:89

 

I think for us to win the role players need to step up..

Tmac and Yao have been playing real good on offense and defense..

they need help at least on defense.. they need to defend those three pointers especially in the fourth quarter..

for offense, role players need to be ready to shoot and make it or make a play when they get the ball..

and they all have to play with more intensity and make their free throws..

 

Well, it's been a great season. Hard to believe we're at a do or die moment already. I wish we'd just blow them out and give the home crowd one win in Houston.

The microscope will be on the officiating this game and the league would be insane to foul Yao out. Let's hope we hit our threes.

 

The team is going to be fired up. I just wish we could keep our poise and focus when shots werent falling. That's the biggest enemy in this game.

 

Quick note:

T-Mac in elimination games is 1-4 and 1-3 at home.

Game 3 loss vs Knicks in 00
Game 3 win vs Bucks in 01
Game 4 loss vs Bucks in 01
Game 4 loss vs Hornets in 02
Game 7 loss at Pistons in 03

Break the trend T-Mac!

 

I Believe!!! Rockets will win.

 

Disregard since he has never been on a team like this, his strongest player was probably in 01 and that was Darryl Armstrong tmac has had no support and his days in Toronto he didnt play enogh minutes to even compare.
