    Yes, what is Mobley doing out there? He must be frustrated with only 7 shots and so not defeding Finlay...

    :confused:

    no. DALLAS IS JUST TOO DAMN GOOD. We did great in the first half. Then we relaxed. EVERY SINGLE PLAYER ON THEIR TEAM CAN SHOOT 3's. GOD!!!

    PASS IT TO YAO?!?!!?

    Uhh yeah.......HE ISN'T DOING VERY WELL, EITHER.

    I knew we were going to lose.

    Terrible...TERRIBLE.

    lol

    Nobody on our team was doing good anyway. Only Yao was. And now they have Yao covered. We lost.

    Our defense really sucks this quarter. How could the Mavs have so many open looks? :mad:

    The Rox don't need to put so much presure on themselves if they would learn how to play DEFENSE.

    Defensive-stops give you those extra chances.

    But the Rox are missing shots (scared to miss),
    and then they exacerbate the situation by just giving away FREE, WIDE OPEN 3-pointers.

    What does Mobley have to do to be benched? He's practically begging for it! This guy has assured the Rockets of a loss.

    Vey frustrating moment. Our inside game was totally ignored,
    we started to drive and kick. Defence is so poor...

    Sorry admins, I forgot to post game stuff in this thread.

    As I was saying, where is the defense in the 3rd?

    Sure the offense sucks right now, but how many uncontested 3's are we going to give up? Get in your man's face!!

    wow! i'm watching the game right now. we were up by 7 and now down by 14. i feel like the same game repeats over and over. yao's involved and we're up. the rest of the team decides to "dribble dribble dribble --- pullup!" and we're down. wow, i love this team!
    and on that note, how many times does steve francis recklessly drive to the basket and miss an illadvised prayer shot?
    and why does cuttino mobley think he's steve francis?

    my lord!
    just run the freakin' offense through yao!!!

    We started losing after they started to hit those 3s, but did you see? The streak started because they hustled and got the rebound after their initial miss, which caused problems leaving a person open on the 3... We had guys there it was just the Dallas players getting ther rebound... and with LaFrentz hot off the 3, Ming can't play that because we need him down below.
    We need something else

    I know the Mavs are awesome with their shooting, but can our rotations and hustle get any worse? We are giving them the wide open 3s all night.How many 3s does it take for Rudy to change the lineup and find someone who will not rotate off one of the best players int he league and allow wide open 3s? How many Griffin line drive 3s will it take?

    Logically, you would think of feeding Yao more often since he is so dominating and opponents got into foul problems defending him. But my guess the guards want to contribute more to come to their average stats, especially at the end of the game.

    you know, they don't actually have to give yao all the shots, but why can't they set up in the post first. then yao can dish when the double team comes. instead, cuttino and stevie love to dribble around the perimeter, spin, dribble some more, and then make a last second crappy pass to a covered man. oh yeah!

    Bench Mobley for the 4th quarter, he did just too much damage
    for Rockets offensively and defensively.
