T-Mac with 20 shots tonight, almost twice as many as the next Rocket. What happened to T-Mac as facilitator, which is what he claimed he was going to be in that Chronicle article.
The last two missed open 3s did not lose us the game, the defense is and RA doesn't know squat about defense. When our team is giving up layups he just stands there and puts in another PF instead of a true shot blocking presence...like Deke. Whatever excuse he has to not play Deke is lame and we'll sit 5-8 in the west until we give Deke the mins he deserve.
Artest going 1-10. Also, our defense was horrible. Memphis got too many easy layups and dunks. I hate to say it, but they ran a better "motion" offense than we did.
horrible defense.... we used to suffocate teams, what happened ??? the bench was 5-23 shooting, which didn't help the cause
Hated that lineup at the end. Bunch of 3 point shooters with Yao. Problem is... they werent hitting any 3 pointers. You need Landry or Scola in there to provide a mid range threat and hustle 2nd chance points.
pretty much. deke made more impact on D than any of our big men tonight in freakin' 2-3 minutes. that's just unbelievable.
Man ***** this team right now!! I was thinking about going to a game later this season, but not anymore. There HAS to be a trade before the deadline. FIRST ROUND LOSS here we come again!
Here we go again. Just when things look good with AB and Yao both get sick. The team had a good chance to make some ground on Hornets and Spurs and once again can't. Something must be done on the 19th and no not just trading Luther will do.
rockets need changes immediatley. we just cant keep losing like this to crappy teams, we need more athleticism in our lineup, and we have to stop relying on our 3 point shots especially Artest....
