Last year's team peaked during the 22-game winning streak and burned out afterwards. By the playoffs they looked tired, which Battier admitted as...
I took a look again and basically, when Thomas fronted Yao in the fourth, he didn't touch the ball once. Here's what I saw in the plays when...
Landry's only played for the Rockets. Lowry was considered a talented PG whom other teams have tried to pry from the Grizzlies. He wasn't getting...
I think in the second one, the Spurs were expecting Bruce Bowen to rotate off Artest to cover Scola, but Artest did a fantastic job sealing him...
I used to watch the Knicks back when Thomas was on the team. Ironically, back then he was known for his offense, but couldn't stay on the court...
How many times did Lowry get the ball to Yao in the post in the second half?
They weren't calling a lot of fouls in the paint. The Rockets better get used to it, because I bet this is what it's going to be like in the playoffs.
Battier came up big and gave the team momentum at key moments. He found his three-point shot at the right time, and that defensive play and...
For Yao to start putting up MVP-like numbers, the Rockets would have to go back to the "dump it into Yao and let him go to work" mode from the...
Thanks as always for the great stats, durvasa. Just for comparison, I went to basketball-reference and got the USG% of Rockets players who are...
According to Friedman, Yao's percentage of "clutch" possessions is great for a center. In fact he's the best in the league. (Although to be fair,...
Even if White's signed for the season, I'm now doubting he'd make the playoff roster. Right now, he's basically taking Head's place on the bench...
I think we would be lucky to see White more than one or two more times before the end of the regular season. And it's a toss up between White and...
A leisurely 30 minutes was a good way for Yao and the team to work out some kinks in their offensive sets. It was also a perfect game to help...
Maybe it was because the Wolves didn't seem interested in winning, but Yao didn't have to do a lot of heavy lifting during his 30 minutes. This...
In the 2006-07 season, when he was averaging 25 points, Yao was taking 15.4 shots and 8.9 free throws per game. (Of course, that potentially...
True, but unlike Artest, Wafer isn't a veteran who's gotten multi-million dollar contracts and can now choose to place priority on winning. I'm...
Wafer has to love what he has with the Rockets, but he won't be taking less money to stay, nor should he. The best we can hope for is that he...
One more question: What does he think about our two young point guards? Or more specifically, how does he and the team play differently with...
I'd like to know if his ankle is still bothering him or if he's 100%.
