ClutchCity.net Game Thread: Rockets @ Nets 3/31/2003

regardless who guarded who, nobody came out to play except SF and Yao. they are all to blame esp. the coaching staff.

Man...WE DESERVE A BETTER TEAM THAN THIS!!!

 

I am sick about those ROX fans who were happy about last win over Denver and Cato's performance. Now you guys see what happened to ROX, uh? A team play? Long way to go.

 

But the game v. ORL is in Houston and the Rox play well @ home. Even though the Rox play MIL on the road, the Bucks just loss to the Nuggs' Even with the trade for Payton, they are a horrible defensive team. So I counted thouse as wins.



Yeah, I know what you mean about coach Mean, though. We would -- he would -- get embarrased in the p'offs on a NATIONAL STAGE.

 

I think half of the money of K Martin's and R Jefferson's new contracts should go to J Kidd's bank account. I wonder what would happen if they play in houston.

 

Seiously why they cant bench coach if he is cluelss. Mean should be embrassed on ESPN by being fired when he bench key players at key part of the game.

 

The lose is Cat's fault. Larry Smith need Cat's ISO game badly. Yao's 24 pts helped nobody to win. The game showed us how important Cat is to this team.

Cat, we are missing you. Larry Smith is missing you!

 

Not on your life, when you see Jason Kidd do his stuff it becomes obvious where Steve stands as a Point Guard and that Moochie is not good enough even for garbage Time!

 

another ugly performance..
anyone catched steve jones said eddie needs to shoot the ball above the rim, not below it, ecause that's how you get the basketball into the basket? I think that's funny..

and eddie got to be one of the worst team players on offense... he shoots EVERY time he touches that ball unless the defender is really all over him. He is like a poor man nowitzki without the shooting touch.

but in general.. the rox deserves to lose... they played no defense at all to begin the game... Sometimes, it is so obvious they come out not respecting the other team... and then they get a good old *** whooping and they still don't respect the other team. They need to realize the other team may not be as bad as they think they are, and they are not as good as they think they are.

I am glad yao has a great game... now I can read some give yao the ball posts.. at least until he has another bad game, then there will be let's trade Yao posts..

I just wonder who is if cat is dumb.. mooch is dumber.. then eddie is the dumbest of them all...

this is an outbreak of arrogant and stupidity... I wish rox made it to the playoff... and then get destroyed by the mavs.

 

The main reason why EG is considered a bust and Jefferson a steal is because of the respective systems they play in. Jefferson gets to play with one of the best playmakers of all time and a good coach. EG gets to play with a bunch of dribbling maniacs and a r****d for a head coach.

I bet if we traded Jefferson for EG straight up in the offseason, Kidd will make EG will look like a borderline all-star and the 3 stoogies backcourt will make Jefferson look like crap.

 

thank god they showed up tonight! Our playoff hopes needed this one.

 

excellent point!!! solution anyone???

 

That's true. But I was trying to look for SOME answers, y'know? It's easy to see that Yao and Francis seemed to be the only players interested in winning the game tonight, but we've been seeing this for a while now. Guys not accepting roles and when they get shots, they don't make them.


I am so frustrated with this team, it's becoming harmful to my health.

 

I think the turning point of the game was where Yao threw that beautiful over the shoulder pass to MOOCHIE WIDE OPEN under the basket and he blew the easiest layup of his life. Instead of that cutting the lead to 6 or whatever it was, Kid comes back on the other end and hits a 3 and the lead becomes 11. After that the nets go bezerk and Kidd hits like 3 or 4 more threes after that. Nice way to break a team's rhythm Mooch.

Can someone explain to me why Moochie gets playing time, period?

 

NO ARGUMENTS HERE!!! I juss noticed that MoT was gone! that also made a lil diffrence! cuz Mo has been playin good as of late!Hope we can win these last games! SOMEHOW! Maybe the Rox will discover TEAMWORK! somethin thats not really in their Vocabulary and if it is I wonder what they think that is! O mybe He' gonna score and Im not so I cant do that I need good Stats!!!THATS WHY THIS ALL SUXS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

because thay want to justify the money they spend in signing him ($3 million per year for 4 years)!!!

 

it's a misconception in the NBA that Jason Kidd cant shoot.

 

Why the hell would you be sick of people who are happy about a win? I am sick of people being upset when a player takes the spotlight for a night and shadows their favorite player!

 

Posey can't play D!!

 

I think Mooch is blackmailing Larry for playing time. If not, maybe he's giving Larry a BJ in the lockeroom before the game.

 

no edit;

and they complain about it!! a win is a win! You can't be happy about a loss, no matter how good a player's performance was. We need the team to win. and they are not getting it done. Ugly game.
