First of all, why the f**k was Mobley taking that shot. Now as some of you know, I'm not one of Mobley's biggest fans, but come on. I get sick and tired of looking up in key situations in the games and seeing Mobley with the ball, taking a wild shot most of the time. If Rudy T is behind this, then he is stupid. Steve Francis didn't exactly burn up the court tonight, but I feel he didn't touch the ball enough tonight, especially down the stretch when the game was right there. I don't know, the Rockets are just to frustrating to figure out. ------------------
thatz generally what a young and mediocre team is. hard to figure out. rudy T didnt get the head coach of the rockets by being stupid so i'd appreciate u laying off the name calling. rudy T makes alot of bad coaching errors but the man has won two championships so he isnt that "stupid" steve francis and mobley are playing injureeeeeed..... ------------------ --TEX
Just like I said the other night, if they are so injured, especially Mobley, then they need to sit their injured asses down and quit hurting the team. ------------------
ok pooh since u think thats a good argument then who is going to provide us with the usual 40-45 pts. 10 assists 10 RBs they supply? walt? mo taylor? against shaq? hakeem? ditto mooch? pleaz explain they hurt the team by playing through injuries and provindg 50% of our offense still. ------------------ --TEX
Why don't we avoid bashing Rudy T right now? Personally, I'm of the opinion that Mobley is still just a playground baller. He never seems to demonstrate any sense of TEAM... plays best 1-1 or at most with one other guy. He should NEVER have taken that shot... hurt, and with that much time on the clock. Now, the game is lost... but RUdy's job is to make sure Mobley doesn't make the same mistake twice. ------------------ Shandon Anderson rocks. The lottery sucks. Playoffs 2001.
just where O where do ya think we are gonna find two more guards to play then??? They can play, but they need to quit doin stuff that they know is affected by their injuries... Their my butt...we are talkin about Cat! Woth an injured elbow, he should not be cranking up 3 pointers at clutchtime!! Thats just plain stupidity!! Dont blame RT..alot of times the decision is made on the floor. ------------------ 404 File not found. The sig you are looking for is missing .
I said especially MOBLEY, I want he's sorry ass to sit out. I'm one of Francis' biggest fans. Francis played okay tonight, but like I said he didn't get enough touches down the stretch. And face it, Mobley is not all that when he's healthy. The reason he gets a lot of points is because he shoots up a lot of shots and makes a small percentage of them. Now that he is injured, he's just plain sucking, he can't even hit free throws. I'm sorry, but he needs to sit down. ------------------
Rudy should not have played Mobley tonight. He did NOTHING but hurt the team. ------------------ "Rarely is the question asked: Is our children learning how to put food on their family while being put to death."
DAMMIT! WHY CUTTINO WHY?? ------------------ Francis out top, 9 seconds on the clock, he gives a no look pass to Cuttino Mobley, 4 seconds left, Mobley passes to an open Langhi in the corner with 1 second left! Langhi at the buzzer.......YES!!! How Sweet It Is!!
As for Rudy T, I'm losing respect for him because he could put an end to Mobley's wild play on the court by threatening to bench him. ------------------
This loss really hurt. There's no need to get mad at each other, or blame the guards or blame Rudy. We just have to face the fact that Kobe was phenomenal.
hey ok since cuttino and his 17.7 ppg sucks so bad lets just bench him. hmm ok now who has made alot of clutch 4th quarter shots? 10ppg in the 4th? yes he proly shouldnt have played tonight but pooh and ZRB whether u like him or not he is a damn good player esp. for som1 picked 43rd. cuttino plays w/ fire. he has alot of work to do in every area of his game. but enough of your ridiculous "he hurts the team" constantly bull. sorry if you dont think mobley is a good factor most of the time then i dont know what game you are watching. ------------------ --TEX
He should not have taken that stupid shot, no matter how high his damn average is. ------------------ "Rarely is the question asked: Is our children learning how to put food on their family while being put to death." [This message has been edited by ZRB (edited December 21, 2000).]
I don't think TeX meant that he should have taken that shot...But he doesn't need to be benched Period ------------------ 404 File not found. The sig you are looking for is missing . [This message has been edited by Rockets2K (edited December 21, 2000).]
Look Tex, the bottom like is the Rockets should have won this game, if it wasn't for bone-headed plays, especially by Mobley. ------------------
Lakers defense was to good. Lakers were the favorites, rockets could of won but not should of won. ------------------ President of the Moochie Norris fan club & Vice President of the Jason Collier fan club!
If the Rockets would have executed down the stretch, they would have won the game. ------------------
