    But his last two shots were very typical of what he did with Rockets down the stretch.

    If they get the max contract players they're after, I think they'll be OK with it.

    Mike D thought he had the Gallo gimmick going offensively for a while until too late to realize sticking Gallo on AB is just not going to work. :grin:

    Got off to a bad start. I think the early time may have made them come out a little flat on offense.

    They turned it up when the 2nd quarter started.

    I really like the kid. I know I may be guilty for getting giddy about our own young prospects, but even with his misses, I thought they were pretty good shots. I would much prefer 5 ft shots vs long 2s any day.

    That's the "I guess it's Amar'e and Joe Johnson and nothing else" face. We'll see a lot of that as the Rockets pick up a couple of lottery picks from the Knicks.

    NBA.com has him listed at 6'10.

    We'll agree to disagree though because I think playing Jeffries on Gallo is better than what we tried at the start.

    I just rather have a guy like him only able to shoot jumpshots instead of also having the option (with a smaller guy on him) to score in the paint.

    Thats why i'd put a taller, bigger player on him.

    JJ and Jordan Hill show the knick what they traded away ..
    JJ as clutch as they come defensively .. won us the game ..
    Brooks sleepy all game came through when it mattered ..
    Hill + 24 .. Impressive ..

    Mac tried to play defense against Martin and got the Jump ball WOW :eek:

    I'm pretty stoked that we weren't playing "T-Mac Ball" at the end.

    Also, the last time Scola sat out the 4th qtr we know what happened the next game.

    Scola will go into beast mode again.

    Andersen needs to be pack his bags in a trade this offseason.

    If Hill develops into a beast, and we pick up next two Knick top lottery picks, and Martin does his thing. We get all this by an expiring K and Landry? :grin:

    Stop for a sec, think about that. That is nuts.

    Tracy circled this game,remember? He laid off a few games just to have an OK game like this. He still plays no defense. He only took long jumpers in close game and never made them (0-3 in the 4th today).

    He's about the 4th best player in a depleted team, and very inconsistent. Coupled with his attitude problem, he'll be lucky to get anything more than a veteran's minimum for next contract.

    Not many people are talking about Kevin Martin.....he poured in an efficent 28 points....he was a very important part of this win

    Aaron Brooks has surprised a lot of people this season, including possibly Chris Rock.

    Anyone noticed Tmac lackadaisical performance down the stretch. He actually walked down the court after won the tip against Martin. Haven't we seen that before.

    Haha! David Anderson is officially in Adelman's doghouse! Didnt even see one minute of playingtime.

    I hope Hill continues to play more and Anderson's minutes go down.
