ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Nuggets 12/20/2007

NBA.com recap said Camby left with injury and did not return. Thats incorrect. Camby stayed in the game and then fouled out before the end. That fall looked nasty- right on his hip bone it looked like.

 

Once he start making his 3s he will be so nice for Houston. With T-Mac back this should be the rotation.

YAO
T-MAC
Battier
Hayes
Rafer
AB0
Bonzi
Scola
-minor minutes depend of match up Steve.

 

i love this game!

although we lose, the team shows they try their best!



no one can be blame! ( but t-mac and james..what can i say..)

 

This was a great effort by the Rockets. If we play like this every night, we would be better off than we are now. I was also glad to see Aaron Brooks in the game too. I've been waiting all year for him to get minutes. He is a guard that can handle the ball like Alston shoot the way James used to, and drive like Francis used to. He brings a complete package at the point guard spot. Hope to see him play much more this season.

Yao has stepped his game up as well. The results of this season have not been Yao's fault at all, he's doing his part. 26 and 19 against the Defensive Player of the Year is pretty damn impressive, a night after going for 19 and 17 against the Beast, Dwight Howard. I just feel bad for the guy, since he competes with all he has, and loves this game. Atleast he knows his team stepped up for him tonight, and I'm sure he appreciated that a lot.

 

The Bucks are really high on Yi, so there is no way they do that trade. Maybe Redd and Charlie Villonuea for TMac and picks.

 

Look at Nets and Sun, where are shooters? shooters are everywhere!

 

in depth analysis: shoot to score

 

honestly, its such a war in there trying to get yao the ball at the end of the game. being at the game makes the violence so much more real. the ball handler as a threat to drive makes it so much different. one thing rafer did well tonight was a sort of half penetration, skipping in toward the basket and making the defence respond. he did that with pics from yao. ab did it just straight up...

 

God bless Rockets enter the play-off^^^^
Never dream about Yao or thar glass-made Tracy.

 

it's a little pity that Yao lose the last shoot in the 5th though he did well tonight.

 

Show my respect to Rockets players
It's a loss, but great effort

 

They just need to play with this effort every game! The wins will come then and the shooting will turn around eventually

 

Bonzi isn't a PF. Rockets need to trade for a proven startering calibre PF who can score. It's time for Troy Murphy.

 

I think Aaron Brooks will be a star one day. This kid really has lots of potential. For one thing, he's so quick, as quick as Iverson. Did you see that play in the first quarter when Iverson tried to use a quick fake to get past Brooks, but Brooks adjusted instantly and still stayed right in front of Iverson? Also at the beginning of the 4th quarter it was also Brooks who scored 4 points in a row to tie the game for us.

I think Brooks is gutsy, and he will be a slashing/cutting/penetrating threat for us because of his insane speed.

He just needs more playing time to gain more confidence and experience. I really hope that Rox would keep him and develop him. I'm looking forward to seeing more of him in this season.

 

yes,this is really what the Rockets men need to do. I love them, although we lost the game

 

just bad luck ...
they doing a great today
i love them

 

3 fouls in 51 minutes for Yao..... what the hell is going on??

 

To whoever wants Redd on this team... you must have not seen Redd play at all... the guy is the biggest hog ever and chucks just like tmac sometimes... check out Bucks results this season and you will change your mind... oh yeah, they will never give up Yi...

 

wow, that hurt

 

Good loss. We have super luck next time!
Good effort boys!
I have to say ,Cater: You last shot is RIDICULOUSLY UGLY!
