ClutchCity.net Game Thread: Rockets @ Wizards 2/27/2003

i still say
rox 102
wiz 96

we will bw up by 15 in the third and of course lose it and fight back to force the OT, by then steve will have a trip dub, yao will have 35pt 17 rebs, mobs 16 pt 4 assist(not to mention the big shot at the end to insure the win), griff 3-8(he will have a good day) and end up with 8 pts

if im wrong about most of this its cool.. as long as im right about the win

 

Uh oh, perfect timing! Ming's going to have to face the wrath of Jahidi!

Can't wait for the game tonight! I'll be the one in the nosebleeds wearing a Cuttino jersey.

For anyone unfamilair with DC, MCI Center is smack dab in the middle of our Chinatown.

 

It's hard to judge any games win or lose for the Rockets but I will say win. We need this one..........we just need it.

 

THe rocks will finally realize they better win to satisfy the fans, and their own eurges to make the playoffs.

....I hope.

Rocks win...not a pretty game though....i hope (for the opposing team)

 

The snow just started falling in DC at 4:00 pm, not likely to impact game, but we could get another 10 inches and the fans might be impacted.

 

here is a audio link from WTEM, DC. http://www.sportstalk980.com/

 

Big time loss for a team that never had a chance this year.


Rockets: 85
Wizards: 116

 

Same as the LA game.

Rockets will win with MJ playing; will lose without him!

 

ROCKETS BEAT WIZARDS BY 9

 

If jordan doesn't play.. then rockets going to come out cold.. down by at least 10, then come back in the second quarter with their second unit.. and then lose a close game in the fourth..
if jordan plays.. rockets come out on fire.. lose the lead in the second quarter with their second unit.. and then lose a close game in the fourth.

wiz 98
rox 92

 

It's interesting how both the Wizards and the Rockets are in 9th place and pushing to make the playoffs. Rockets are better, but Wizards are at home. I guess it's a matter of who wants it more:

Rockets 101
Wizards 82

 

if Jordan plays:

rox 97
wiz 92

if Jordan sit

wiz 102
rox 90

 

Will the game be only televised on TNT? or will it be on Ch. 51 as well?

 

Let's not underestimate the presence of Stackhouse, Lue, Haywood, and veteran Oakley. Any "whew, Jordan isn't playing", will get the Rockets into big trouble. Rox are gonna need to be as good against the Wiz w/o Jordan as Wiz with Jordan.

YES!!! PROXIMO DOMINGO!!! You see, I don't have cable tv or nuthin like that, but the game against the Spurs will be on uhf channel TELEMUNDO!!! it took be several minutes trying to figure out what "proximo domingo"meant following the Wolves-Suns game on Telemundo last Domingo.

 

Jordan is playing.

 

Rudy T is a moron. We keep leaving Laetener open. WHY THE HELL DID WE RUN A PLAY TO GET POSEY A 3 AFTER HE JUST AIRED ONE! Things are happening when we run plays for Francis. He had a jay, assist to Griffin, assist to Cat. Stop going to Yao, Mobley, and Posey, and give Francis the ****ing ball.

 

Francis has the ball in his hands more than anyone else. He has the ball. Our defense is the real problem right now.

 

What happened to defense?

When the Rockets played defense earlier in the season, they were a much better team.

That 23-15 record was because of defense. The 7-13 record since is due to the Rockets completely giving up on the defensive end.


Paaaaaaaaaathetic.
