if we had T-mac from last year, and played like we did last night...i see no reason why we couldn't win the championship. we have such a great team, the way we played showed a lot of promise. unfortunately portland is no way close to the caliber of lakers and i hope we can hang with the best of them.
The ROSE garden...where amazing happens!! Watching the game unfold and seeing everything that can go right for the Rockets & all that can go wrong for the Blazers begs for the question...can amazing happen in the ROSE garden Tuesay night? Who thought that Brooks will back up his comments about preferring to play the Blazers in the 1st round by outplaying B.Roy and looking like like a maestro at it. Who thought that Yao will play with such confience and skill like he was having an out-of-body-experience? What about the the other Rockets players playing with sync and harmony and delivering a masterpiece. That's about as cheesy as I can get before deleing every word I wrote
Here you go. I think that will wrap up my videos for round 1. <object width="320" height="265"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/gtSzQL4QoKM&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/gtSzQL4QoKM&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="320" height="265"></embed></object> And here's probably my favorite from last night. <object width="320" height="265"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/91HKLBVqccA&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/91HKLBVqccA&hl=en&fs=1&color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="320" height="265"></embed></object> LaMarcus got schooled last night by everyone. Catch the rest and keep checking back through the series as I update them. Thanks for viewing. Watch them all here http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=6051D253CD3DB9CC
unfortunately we wouldn't play like we did last night with tmac.. tmac needs the ball to be effective on offense.. and is a huge liability on defense.. now do that trade with the pistons for tayshaun and rip..... well.. that's another thing
Yeah. He also said "Don't be surprised if its a sweep." Mark Jackson retorted with "It's not gonna be a sweep. Portland will go and make adjustments, and be ready for game 2."
In statistical inference terms, Rockets' recent playoff outcomes have been all Statistical Significant events.
They didn't forget about Yao in the second half. The Blazers were bringing a guy from the weak side and doubling him even if he didn't have the ball.
beautiful, AB was amazing, hope he continue his performance. yao mvp Deke younger than oden. Louis, the hustler as always. Artest good but could do a bit better on roy. Shane, batman. Rest of team great, keeping the lead.
I'm just glad Yao got to sit out most of the 2nd half. He'll be well rested for Tuesday's game. Don't forget that Deke filled in really nice with his defense. I have a feeling that the Blazers will front Yao for game 2. I hope Brooks can hit the open shot like he did last night, that's gonna be the key to break the fronting.
I know this is in the wrong section, but could somebody please post this up in a new third. This is an article I had sent to me by a dallas mav friend and I think its disgusting. http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcon...mavs/stories/041709dnspomavslede.3373c95.html
i think it was already posted, i read it somewhere here earlier this week, nothing disgusting about it, he's just comparing the position houston was in and dallas now, just saying some people are sleeping on them..
lolz. is this a joke? If t-mac would have played we would have lost the game and the series. Cant you see t-mac is a bad influence on the players and the atmosphere around the team? When he doesnt play we just pwn. I am positive we are passing first round this year with a 16 million dollar loser on the injury list, ROFLROFL. BAN T-Mac, bring something better, next year we get championship. gg.
Most people keep pointing out that Portland didn't front Yao, main reason being is that didn't have a chance to really do so. For one, the guards were hitting their shots and driving to basket, while he wasn't really setting up on offense as much as you would think.
Wow, I knew T-Mac had a pretty bad year this year, but being able to lose an entire series in one game. Wow, that takes skill!!!
