ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Mavericks 5/7/2005 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 7)

The Rockets need to clear the bench for the 4th quarter. No use possibly ruining next year by having T-Mac or Yao get injured.

 

C'mon Rox....let's DESTROY 'em in the fourth!!!!!

 

first time i see a player go at Keith Jones like that..

 

27-0 run coming up.

 

Well I wanna see a fight so fight. %(($ class...
Somebody go pick a fight.

 

Great series, proud of the Rox and I hope the Mavs do well in their run...... We got hit in the mouth from the start of this game and could just never recover, sometimes it happens.... we will retool and be back next year....


GO ROX!!!

 

Before everybody starts freaking out about the season and the roster I think we should be happy they made it this far and showed what they are capable of in the future. Losing a game 7 on the road to a 59 win team is nothing to go Kurt Cobain over. We are building for the long term. Having two potentially dominant inside and outside players who are still in their mid-20's is consolation enough for me, especially given how well they played in the playoffs. We'll be back. Give Jeff Van Gundy some youth and rebounding and we'll win multiple titles. Book it. One more thing: screw the Mavs.

 

I'm proud of the season, but this loss is a bad bad way to end it.

 

Notes to Sura: Dont try to out score Dallas and not play D. Arrh! Fugging get a clue how to pass the damn ball. Arh!

 

All those idiots blaming Yao or T-MAc need to STFU!!

Pathetic fans!

 

Man, make this game close at least. 26 point deficit is terrible going into the 4th.

I feel bad for T-Mac. He played his heart out in this playoff round.

Ewing or whoever is going to continue to train Yao is going to have a hell of a time in the offseason. He just f**ked up too much during this playoff round.

 

How can anyone blame Yao and T-Mac tonight? They're the only Rockets who showed up to play.

 

YAO should start shooting 3's

 

The Rox will improve next year. PG, and SG will be keys. Wesley is the only defense on the perimeter and he is very limited at 6'0 tall. The Mavs killed us on the perimeter.

I hope the Greek PG and Malick Badiane improve enough to make the team. Or I hop we can sign Stromile Swift or better.

 

We are talking about playoffs, aren't we?

You have to keep in mind that most of the time Deke was playing against other team's 2ne units. He's a better defensive player and rebounder, but still he doesn't require double teams. Look at this serious, when Dallas studied what Deke does, he's not nearly effective enough than regular season.

 

time to say goodbye and go fishing. Waiting for next yr for this team to get a good pf and Kidd, good luck all!

 

There vis no way Bob Sura should be starting point guard on a good team.

 

He really cost us the series. He was more valuable to the Mavs than nearly half their roster with his mind-boggling ineffectiveness.

 

lol this s bad to watch.

Anyways ..lol I saw Pacers and Cetlics..and everyone at the end like said good series whatnot..even O'Neal and Walker..and Stephen Jackson and everyone..Celtics talk so much trash..and Pacers fight so much..and they just had like 3 or 4 techincals lol before the game ended.
So yeah it's just a game.

And well seriously I don't see anything about saying good to Dirk..I wouldn't mind Yao saying screw you you flopper..and then I wouldn't mind Vin Baker punching Josh Howard.

The rest of the Mavs..great series to y'all..y'all deserved to win this game cuz y'all played better..but we should have swept..refs f'd us up.

Mike James..I get mad just like him..if I get fouled like that and no call...he came down court fouled right away cuz he was mad..and yeah why did he get kicked out? He did same thing Tmac did earlier.

It was a foul imo. Armstrong block my butt.

And one time Tmac airballed..they gave Howard a block..uhh it was all foul..hit wrist clearly.

Keith Jones and MJ are probably friends..MJ just mad you know.

 

This is what frightens me, Clutch. I think we're building our future around a hope that's not showing up. We've set expectations this guy can't meet. I can count on one hand the number of games this year in which McGrady had a bad game and Yao carried the team.
