ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Pacers 12/26/2006

I just don't like it when people jump all over someone for one bad game. Anyway who watches this team knows that Head has been playing well. Trading him would be a step back.

 

You and you're agenda. i know without yao playing you're gonna be pissed and board, but can you let us Rockets fans and not only a fan of a single player live in peace. jesuse, you get pissed because i said tracy is the spirutal leader of the team. it offended you i didnt mention yao?..

 

That's not what I saw. He was just blowing layups. The defender is allow to make contact if he's just jumping straight up.

 

i just sat and watched the game live (1st time all season i've had the chance) and thought we missed a real gimme game here.

The Pacers are a terrible team - we were bad obviously - but a few things go our way and we steal a win. Bonzi hits some FT's, McGrady hits one or two more of those 3 's he fell in love with, Head doesnt play a shocker (in fairness to Luther the reaction from some members of this board to his bad game today is disapointing, how quickly people forget what he's been doing for us with McGrady out) .

If if's and buts were candy and nuts...

 

He probably did, and i wouldn't be surprised if he started rooting for the Pacers after seeing how poor the Rockets were.

 

no no, u just see the positive side of his game, try to look at Luther from a stand point of a "critic" (u know, to point out his flaws). he turns it over so much, he cant hit a midrange J to save his life, he cant drive to the basket (gets blocked 90% of the time), he travels everytime he "pumps fakes", he cant defend worth a crap, he cant pass whatsoever, and the list keeps going on and on and on. the only thing he can do is hit the 3, and he is really good at it. well, I dont have a problem with him if he limits himself to shooting 3s, but if he tries to go DWade on everybody, trade him, he just cant. he can only do 1 thing. he has no dimensions in his game. Luther is TRASH, he needs to go.

btw, JHO gotta go as well. JHO is the biggest reason for our loss. he got owned by all the Pacers' big men, from Foster, to Baston (whatever his name is), to Harrington. and he was the reason for 30% of the turnovers even though they dont show on the stats (they show up on Rafer's and Tmac's stats as "bad passes" while in reality, it's JHO's fault for "not catching" the damn ball)

 

Just wanted to say that our Free Throws tonight were bad, Mcgrady and Wells is who I am talking about you can't miss free throws well more than one.

 

Several other people saw same thing that I did. You must not have been paying attention.

 

The last play was a total melt down and it's on JVG. An NBA coach should be able to draw up some thing better for a last shot. Why didn't he just have head jack up a 3 from half court? Call the time out and make sure you're team is on the same page for crying out loud.

 

I guess ROXS just figure out that they can not beat NETS any way and rather let TMAC rest. Man, we should nail this one!

 

Tracy really had bad shot selection in generall tonight.

 

cause thats what he drew up. luther get trapped and then throw up a prayer

 

Yes, he did.

 

why you don't blame Tracy, his last 2 tos at the end of 4th quarter is deadly, we even didn't get a chance to shoot.

 

Luther is a guy who can shoot open 3's for rockets. We need TMac to create open 3s for him and Battier.

 

JVG mentioned it in the post game interview, Too many TURNOVERS!!

 

I miss Yao already........IM DEPRESSED

 

Just calm the fxxk down. Lutha is a fine player for a 2nd year late first round pick. Ohter young pupies dont even see the floor in their 2nd years.
Our superstar was not taking the last shot, that tells you something. How many times he turned it over down the strech. I know it's his first game back. But dont take it out on Lutha, he was trying hard out there.
Also, one game you already change your mind?
This is not a YOF thing when people say this team cannot be a 500 team without Yao. It's an objective assessment. Down the strech, where did Pacers go to get its points. We are talking about Al Harrington, not Jamine Oneal, not Tim Ducan, not Amare Stoudmire, not Elton Brand, not Carlos Boozer. Al fxxking Harrington abused us inside. Yao would've made Foster look silly tonight, and yet Foster was named the player of the game by the pacer's annoucers. It pains me to watch us get abused inside. But look for more of that to happen. There is no mercy in NBA.

 

It has nothing to do with Yao. But I do enjoy ripping your illogical argument apart and laugh my ass off at your brouhaha.

 

He got fouled though
