ClutchCity.net Game Thread: Rockets @ Suns 2/19/2003

Anyone tape the game last nite?? I'm looking for a copy and am willing to pay for it. Thanks. ifallelse1@aol.com

 

I agree with you for the most part, but there are many bright spots, too (other than the obvious: 20 point road victory over a decent team). Griffin hasn't been playing spectacularly, but better, and slightly more consistently. We rebounded like... rabbid dogs? Taylor has been heating up and looks like he could be a new offensive threat for us. We played some D. AND we got the win in a big way despite all those nasty things you mentioned. That's a feat in itself, isn't it? And BTW, had Rice not made quite so many of those shots, we still might even have won, it'd just be a lot closer cuz we blew them out.

But yeah, still definitely no reason to get our hopes yet. I said earlier, though, that it the Rockets won 2 of these 3 last road games (Utah, LA, Phoenix), I'd gaurantee a Rocket playoff berth. I'm sticking to that gaurantee.

I also agree with you, RocksMillenium, just don't get your hopes too high. I just hope Steve gets his touch back real soon...

 

Prop to the Rox.

I can sense that the team is starting to turn around.
