putting in that kinda defensive effort? minny still hit there shots but thats not the point. the rockets were getting after it on D and i was proud of there defensive effort down to a man all we are asking for is consistent effort on defense. defense is the biggest sign of effort and intensity. this was the first great defensive effort of the year (since jan 1st) now lets keep this defensive effort going Rox, its literally the very least u can do, and ur fans demand it
i thought our D effort went down cuz offense wasn't flowing. Everyone was kinda discouraged. then our offense came back and everyone becomes excited and active.
McGrady went 6-16 but defense and effort made up for it. The others did well too after getting in trouble.Strong comeback from Yao after his initial slow start made me feel good. Keep it up and you will make it to the playoffs. If we slack off we will lose.
we will make playoffs either way cause west is too weak outside of lakers. all the other teams in the hunt are doing worse and they have been healthy all year the key is not getting to playoffs but winning when we get there and only way to do it is to play consistent defense and let the offense come to the players naturally over time as they play more together its not even all star break yet there is time and we have some margin of error but not much
I miss the games where we would win 77 to 68. They were rare but I want an ugly win like this. Our team can score which is great and as soon as we get some d consistency this team willl be up with the La's and Boston's. Great win.
I am really impressed with T-Mac's defense. Offensivly he could have done more, but defense was there. Nice two blocks..
No, when they played great D, they got easy baskets to turn on offense and frustrated the opposite offense.
for what its worth the commentating team had a strong showing tonigh as well, i thought clyde bull and bill had some hilarious comments in there any1 catch glyde saying rice was getting clobbered by uh back in phi slamma days cause there sat scores were too high? lmao
he scored 10 pts in the first quarter. he coudl have, but he knew they would win only if they played on the other end. and he stepped it up on that end. tmac is slowly getting better. look out for him by march.
Nah he doesn't....since most of his potential rebounds are swaped by everybody on his team, mostly by scola and even rafer.
Rockets outrebounded the Wolves by 12. As long as the Rockets are getting as much or more rebounds than their opponent it doesn't matter who is getting the rebounds.
Rocket today is a whole, and Tracy McGrady with integration into the defense, well, everything becomes so great
