ClutchCity.net Game Thread: Rockets @ Celtics 2/24/2003

I remeber last rox celtics game. Yao was wondering first time he saw so many 3s. Boston has no answer but 3s. Hopefully Walker shoots 3 like he did in all star competition. Rox win!!!

 

I hope Rudy uses a good combo of players, and keep Glen Rice hot as well as Mobley. If not, there is always Nachbar

 

Rockets win!

Paul Pierce is the most blocked player in the league, and our record is incredible when Yao Ming has 3 or more blocks, and when our team has 8 or more blocks.

If Posey plays ANY defense at all, expect a win. Hopefully, Griffin and Walker don't get into a shooting matchup.

We need Francis to abuse Bremer and not GET abused. We need Posey not to get abused, and same for Eddie.

Basically, if we can play D, then there's no way Boston can stop us from scoring.

 

hopefully lakers will lose against the sonic to night

 

If Steve plays:

Rockets 99
Celtics 98

Yao Ming - 18 and 10
Cuttino - 30 points
Steve - 14 points

Pierce - 35 points
Bremer - 20 points
Walker - 18 points

Pierce, Walker and Bremer play well, but Celtics get nothing else from team. Rockets get another big game from Cat, Steve comes back for limited time, Mo Taylor has a good game off the bench.

If Steve sits:

Celtics 108
Rockets 90

 

Lakers won.

Getting back to the original topic, Celts will beat Rox 96-89.

 

Wrong, Boston will go down. Although they have won 5 of 7 and just went 4-2 on a 6 game road trip, I don't think they can contend with Yao. Their injuries will catch up with them (I hope).

Phoenix is free falling, I have a feeling they will lose at Chicago, who are 16-9 at home. Houston will slide right in.

 

Rockets win 107 to 98. Yao Ming with 25 points, 16 rebounds, 4 blocks, 3 assists.

 

Yao's getting tired again. He's trying to keep his energy up, but you can see he's beginning to struggle a bit.

Hopefully, MoT, Rice and Griffin win this one for us.

 

Yao does seem to be tired again, but he's playing pretty well even though he does seem tired.

 

Sane:- Once in a while think of Yao Ming as the Great wall, standing for thousans of years. SMILE.

ahhhh...no edit!!!



there....i wont be down in houston till the 7th...damn.

 

SF3 will be bak in the game and have 5+ turnovers.Rockets will win in OT

 

God... i mean yao, will go for 33 and 22 with 11 blocks on 14/14 shooting and will never not get the ball, even when he goes to the bench.

the devil... i mean steve, will of course go 2/19 because he's so selfish and probably commit 11 turnovers (at least) while having no assits.

the world's greatest point guard... i mean moochie will dish out 13 assists, easily grab 6 boards while scoring 15 while being the consummate playmaker that DavidS thinks he is and easily leading us back from the 20 point hole steve has put us in.

the world's second greatest point guard, i of course mean tito maddox, will again have the infinite assists/to ratio, furthering DavidS's call for him to start the rest of the season and in a surprise twist will not only make a shot but go 5/5.

because steve is playing, we will struggle to win until he is eventually benched with 5 minutes to go and we win 98-91. steve will be sent down to the nbdl after the game because rudy will finally realize he is the cause of all our problems. cuttino will never see time again b/c rudy will realize the same of him.

everyone on the board will live happily ever after as we then go on to win the title this year (of course after firing rudy).

 

Playing at the Gaaaden! It ain't gonna look good. That Bird curse is going to get us.

Celtics 98
Rockets 93

 

Ummmm, the Celtics play at the....ahhh screw it, it's not worth it...

Celtics 5,420
Rockets -5

Refs actually deduct points from the Rockets score after their stellar play...

 

Boston shoots a LOT of three's. Posey, Cat and Franchise will therefore get lots of playing time at the expense of Griffin. Yao and Griffin better learn how to bang it inside coz that's the main advantage we have.

Rox lose the game from a huge run by the Celts in the 3rd Quarter.

 

These are the kind of stimulating, insightful posts that CC is world famous for...in depth strategy analysis done with a sophisticated flair and an articulation that makes Bill Walton look like a GED flunk out...posts that make me leap from my bed to my computer as each new day brings forth an almost infinitely expanding level of knowledge taking my understanding of the game to ever increasingly joyous heights....

Yawn.

 

Rockets shoot over 50% from the field on the road for the first time in....have they done it this season?

Rox 108
Celts 84
