Clutchfans Game Thread: Hawks @ Rockets 12/9/2008

What can happen when we at the bottom, only bounce up. Do it Rox.. Believe

 

2nd?

Well, first time Ive popped up with a prediction for awhile.

Actually havent been posting much lately.

Anyhoo

Rocks bounce back win. 103 - 97.

Is Artest likely to play?

 

Suck it up! Time for next win!

 

I hope so. Hawks is much stronger. We need Artest to win.

 

R we there yet?

With our three and a half guy(Battier) out of the rotation, I m not sure. Just dont blow out.

Go Rockets.

 

This a game we need to win, but we didnt.

 

It's not going to be pretty folks. Hopefully I'm wrong.

 

If Yao doesn't get at least 20/10, we lose this one.

 

gonna be a tough one, again.

the hawks are very very athletic and have good pg. i don't expect yao to play too well. if he gets 20/10 type of numbers, i'd be happy.

defense and shooting are gonna be the key. if our defense still allows 100+ pts, we will be in trouble.

and chron says artest is "doubtful" for this one too.

hope the rockets bounce back and win a close one. 100-96.

 

Every game will be tough without T-Mac and Artest.

If Artest needs time off that ankle, give it to him. We don't need him to make it into a nagging injury that will hurt later in the season.

BTW any updates on when McGrady will return?

Either way, it's a back-to-back so let's see if that theory with Yao holds up. He's going to have a big game and we win.

 

Everyone better lube up for this game.

 

I just can't fall sleep right now.

Come over here and pray for a W

Puh-lease! Rox,don't let us down again after a disgraceful loss to the lowly grizz.

97-80 Rockets win

 

No worries Tmac and Ron will play against the Hawks.

 

Is that true?

We need to do what Mavs had done, they 2-7 at first 9 games, while the next 10 games only lose one, Rox bounce up.

 

Because if the Rockets don't get some help and play as weak as they did against the Grizzlies we are all going to be in for a long night and the Hawks will be there for the kill.

 

Ron Ron did not enter the game,prolly even not with the team over to the Memphis with his sore left ankle if I remember correctly.If he plays against the Hawks,it's much better for our short-handed lineup though

Wait,T-Mac will play? Are you serious,last time I heard from a friend of mine say he's out 3 weeks and now only 1 week and half past.Am I delusional right now??

 

Another frustrating loss?

I hate this, we should have had at least 15 wins by now.
That's avg. for team with contender expectations.

 

Continue this year trend of coming back strong after a disappointing loss.
107-92 Rockets.

 

i refuse to make a prediction.

God save Yao. grab a rebound.
