even if we do not make the playoffs... man I LOVE this team.. Rockets are Yao less, superstar less, All Star less and still able to beat any team in the league and I LOVE it. Kyle Lowry is a such a pleasant surprise also
Stop that right there... Martin beat his man and had a clear lane to the basket, I remember it vividly, there was no one going to contest his shot because he was so wide open. He slowed down and threw himself into the man he just beat, the guy behind him! Kevin Martin Begs for calls way to much. EVERYONE gets fouled more times than the refs call - see Kyle Lowry. You really expect them to call every single foul? It would be a 4 hour game. Kevin Martin wants them to call everything and often screws up the Rockets when he starts begging. Kevin Martin wipes out on screens instead of just hoopin' trying to get a stop; THAT was the turning point in the Suns loss not the dreadful 30 seconds of Brad Miller. Kevin Martin is a con-artist, but that only slightly diminishes his contributions as a Rocket; without him we don't win. I can still roll my eyes after every cheap foul he tries to draw though.
He CREATES contact by playing both hard and crafty. They're not just flops, it's him drawing the foul. If you don't see the difference between that and flopping I don't know what to tell you.
So his drawing of the fouls with hard crafty acting is not just a flop, it's something more than just a flop BUT not nearly as horrendous as flopping? Got it now. You and BeARocketsFan are seeing something I didn't see. Just a flop + Hard Craftiness and Flopping are two completely different concepts I just couldn't wrap my head around. Thanks for breaking it down for me.
Started out in the 15th row of 419 and had our seats upgraded in the middle of the 1st to the 6th row in C105. And we won. Now if only Memphis could go ahead and start losing that would be great...
