nah i saw it. it was just built up from others, along with your post. i just disagree with these people that want to dump k-mart because he has a poor outing against D-WADE of all people. I mean, can ANYONE IN THE LEAGUE control Wade??? I don't think so. I like the direction the ROX are headed, and I hate the fact that every ClutchFan wants to dismember this team. Get rid of any combination of Jeffries and Yao's contracts, along with our picks and maybe a Lee/Budinger/Battier for a decent shot-blocker (dalembert and landry *fingers crossed*) and we would be set
Please Answer the Question. Between Kevin Martin and Chuck Hayes, which Rockets Player shot 6-10 from the free throw line and which shot 7-8? Hint: Tonight we must be having a blue moon..
Wow, smh at people who use adjectives like horrible, mediocre crap, horrific defense, etc. What game were you guys watching? Or are you just reading the box score and making a judgement?
I love that Dallas lost that series but it was help by the refs that series. That Series make Dwade earn his new nick name Dwhistle. Every body not bias who saw that series know it was phantom calls after phantoms calls.
Oh and if we shot 3 less freethrows we would have lost by moaaarrrrrrr It is whining, our D (or lack of) lost us the game.
Missed the game, but my espn scorezone app thing tells me Miami had 8 + blocks...Houston had 12 guys tied with 0. I have to think it was a factor.
Anyhow they played a great game. Minus the two calls and then the whining from some of our fans to leave the poor referees alone? It was a good game.
This game showed me this Rox team can score on anyone. We played and ran up the scoreboard against the best defensive team in the NBA tonight, with 3 superstars in tow (funny, actually moved them down to 2nd best after this game). With added defense this starless team by itself is capable of winning a very good playoff seed and challenging the leagues best.
Or the fact that LeBron Wade was allowed to take 5/6 steps while KMart got hit with 2 travels, What should have been charges were either no calls or fouls, the list goes on. More free throws means nothing. Houston on average is a good team at drawing the foul. It's the heart and soul of our offense, that and the three ball. All in all Wade was given carte blanche to do whatever he pleased. Don't get me wrong, Kmart pretended he didn't know what defense was, but Courtney was decent on him and still got boned by the officials. It's easy to sit back and say "oh look at that Heat team, they have so much, they are better than we are". Realistically, we had them. The spirit was with us, we countered almost every run they made, the only run we couldn't counter is when Bavetta and company started a 5-0 run on Houston. Rockets fans should be disgusted.
Yeah, this is clearly Wade's team. However I watched LeBron during crunch time and he was a much different player than he was on Saturday against the Lakers. There were times when I expected him to take it upon himself and takeover the game and he sort of just faded into the background. Most curious.
Quit your b1tching at other fans over refs. They arent gonna hear you and make you an above 500 team with favorable calls for protecting their valor in an online community.
which game are you watching? Wade is making layups after layups, mostly tear drops close to the basket. when he is doing that and nobody is stopping him, you know he would make his tough jumpers
Just got back home from the game. This loss was absolutely inexcusable. The game was incredibly winnable, but the Rockets kept running too much for a hobbled Brooks in the 4th. Iso iso iso... Not enough motion. It looked like when T-Mac used to enter, and the Rockets used to just wait for him to create. Way, way too many wasted possessions with no Adelman timeout. That too was abysmal. I'm an Eagles fan; I already have to deal with one coach who does not know how to manage timeouts. You call a timeout BEFORE the game gets out of hand. Not after. Absolutely atrocious. Among the worst Rockets losses I've been to.
agreed that he got burned tonight by one of (if not THE) best scorer in the league..... my point is that overall, esp. the last 15 games, he hasn't cost us any games. in fact, he has been a PRIME factor to us WINNING. I hate that everyone wants to throw just him under the bus, when the alternative right now, Courtney Lee, did NOTHING on offense and did not play great defense. was his D better than k-mart's? yes. would i rather have k-mart's passive defense and 21 points opposed to lee's zilch offense and decent defense? ABSOLUTELY. just sayin....d-wade's torches 95% of the league. let's go a little easy on the guy. also who knows, maybe his knee wasn't 100%
I know Morey is trying to find the right deal but this team NEEDS an interior defender. Hayes is great but again tonight we saw the layup line and it won't stop anytime soon. Rox will win their share of games but NEED help and soon, waiting until the deadline maybe to late.
