    Why? The Rockets had a 15 point lead coming out of the half.

    T-Mac needs to drive and pass out when the defense collapses on him. No more long jumpers. Or Adelman needs to sit him and let him rest. The bench did fine the first half.

    if Tmac hits these free throws he'll start shooting and end the game with 20

    he jsut needs to get loose, im telling you from experience. right now he feels stiff and has no confidence he just needs a little something to get going.

    tired legs is an excuse in a game this big

    You have to summon energy from inside of you,will yourself to play better even if you aren't at your best. Horrible 3rd quarter,I don't know if we can recover.

    Scola is playing like a total scrub, he really needs to practise and regain his midrange jumper, TMac is not going to play like he did to the Bobcats every game.

    Harris would help because he attacks the basket.

    At the end of the day there is only so much talent on this team with the injuries and you have to find a way to get the most out of it.

    Fatigue is a weak excuse when you're competing for a championship. Everybody's tired, especially when the playoffs come.

    Am I suppose to cheer when tmac is going 0-11? Watch the game and criticize by their actions. Dont be a fu()in homer.

    rafer sure does like to end good defense with reaching a lot. taking huge swipes at the ball isn't going to get you many calls.

    It's still a long game, everything could happen. Deke was ineffective and so was his P&R with TMAC. Scola couldn't hit anything, even a tip near the basket. But we will come back. Mike Harris, Luther Head, Bobby Jackson will help us.

    Thts why t-mac is passing more.
    So can't a guy have 1 bad game out of 14? Is that so tough for you? Get off the bandwagon now, im serious.
