ClutchCity.net Game Thread: Rockets @ Grizzlies 1/27/2003

I wonder if Bradley is going to try and "redeem" himself?

 

Good win!!!

We finally end the drought!!

Great, great play by Posey!! I just love this guy!!

Steve made some good shots down the stretch, but needs to cut down those turnovers.

Double double by Yao. The big fella needs to learn to throw it down, though.

Let's start a winning streak here!

 

Wanted to posterize Yao...LOL
Yao: Get your (_|_) outta here!

 

Hmmm, 13/10 for Yao. And 5-6 from the FT line.

He's a looking like a low double-double player.

One day, I hope he can be a 20/15 guy.

 

All in all, we are back at square 1, maintaining a slightly above .50 record, which is not too bad. All in accordance to most people's prediction. Rockets have survived a very tough week by evening the wins and losses.

Now if only Rockets can steal one of the next two games.

 

I hate to say this though - a good win but I am mad that our guards have not learnt anything yet. Down the stretch we had Mo Taylor and Yao Ming doing well inside but our guards STILL decided that it will be better mastubating the damn ball. Watching the ball movement that netted Hawk his only 5 points was beautiful - it came in the flow of the game seamlessly. Rudy coaching is still suspect (not that that was ever in question) - his substitution style stills boggles the mind. Oh well enough of that for now.

Boki Nachbar is BUST as far as Rudy is concerned. I won't be suprised if he become another Mirsad Tucsan or whatever his name is. Sad ain't it.

 

I didn't watch the game so I'm just relieved that we won. I hope that the guards will learn to trust the frontcourt players more. We still have a long way to go.

 

But he did hit Yao's face pretty hard.
Poor Yao, everybody wanted to be physical against him.

 

You never saw Turcan play. I never saw him play!

Or our greatest pick ever?: Mr. Meek.

Nachbar can play. Just no minutes yet.

But, I don't want Posey to get hurt, just
so Nachbar can get minutes.

Take it slow with the rook. We don't need
him yet.

 

Maybe Yao should do a full swing next time he blocks Gooden shot so Gooden would get a nice lasting impression of Yao's palm on his face.

 

A 'W', but the guards still stink down the stretch!

 

Yo

 

Yao!

 

geez...it was win though!!! come on...after waitinf 4 games....


It didnt look great...but much better than last fw games...and more assists....

 

Not sure what game you watched. The guards made the plays down the stretch to win this game.

 

Some of the guards' play are really stupid though

 

I was suprised that Rockets could move the ball. That was beautiful.

 

I was happy about tonight's win. Then I checked the next 4 games b4 all-star game break. Then I got depressed. This could well be double dip recession for Rox.

 

Glad we won but it should not be used to cover our problems with the way the Guards play!!!! WE must be vigilant and ensure that there is no sabotage of our playoff position.

 

The game you watched is certainly a different game from most people did tonight.
