All, Sorry it's a little late, but here's our latest report from last night's game: http://blogs.houstonpress.com/ballz/2008/03/rocketspacers_all_aboard_the_c.php Keep that fantastic feedback coming; it's immensely appreciated. Thanks for reading! cheers, JCF
Whoa, really? While it frightens me to no end that you actually know that, I do sincerely appreciate the heads up. I'll get it changed ASAP. I refuse to allow any factual errors regarding Bring it On to seep into my columns... JCF
Love that attitude from Carl. He isn't letting his success get to his head. Chuck put up some nice scoring numbers in the first half of last game, but notice that Adelman didnt make any mention of that in the post game. He referred to his intelligence and play making on the defensive end, i.e. the stuff that doesn't show up on the stat sheet. That's something Chuck will give you any game, and it's a great luxury to have that type of player available on the bench.
Chuck actually dunked last night. Actually it was when he was checked in that the Rockets extended the lead up to 23 points. Then he had the ankle tweak and the lead was gradually cut back down to single digits at the end of the half and in the 3rd. His effect on that game was great. It's great to say that our PF and PG positions thanks to Rafer's improved play, and our 3 headed monsters with Scola, Landry, and Hayes have become one of our greatest strengths. I think if you tally all 3 of our PFs stats together you'll have stats that compare with some of the best PFs starting and bench combos in the league. Its ashame Yao got injured because we'd have the best front court in the league in my opinion. And when Brooks comes into his own, a PF combo of Alston, Brooks, and a combo guard with Head is still pretty decent. There's really no big weakness on this team when healthy other than possibly being a bit undersized with Yao out.
I only saw the first...I learn a lot of things from my son and his wife. I think #4 has been out as well.
I'm glad he wasn't traded like some people on here have suggested. I love the hard working Chuck Hayes. He is no doubt about is a valuable player on this team and does great against other players that Landry and Scola are having problem with. The man needs to work on his offense. I'm damn glad we have 3 great guys in Scola, Landry and the Chuck Wagon.
Great article, as always. But can't you get cupholders on this wagon? I thought it was the special edition.
Chuck was something like +17 last night and you can't attribute that to 111 since Yao is out and McGrady was on the bench for a lot of the big run. Chuck totally jammed up Indy's offense when he came in. He is a great player to have on the bench to go to, especially when you consider he is making less than $2 mill.
From what I heard, plenty of ladies would like to board the Chuck Wagaon and have his babies. (Terribly inappropriate, I know) (there are guys who want the same)
i believe that would be the straight-to-dvd classic "Bring It On: In It to Win It". a must have for any dvd library.
