Why don't you blame JVG? In the first 5 min of 4qrt, he put both Yao and Cato on the bench let Curry got hot. Doesn't he know his team has problem in the 4qrt?
I'm siding with Ric Bucher. Jim Jackson for all-star, MVP, and to quote Bill Walton, the greatest player in the history of the game.
well, we lost calvin his big macs by getting the bulls to 80, but damn that's a sweet way to win a game. it looked good about halfway and then barely held on. sweetness.
Just got here and was about to harp on the blown 18 point lead. I guess I could still harp on it but that was real nice!!
oh, man, we finally won! I love you Jackson, what a beautiful jum shot it is. and I love Cat, who made the most important assist tonight
If we had lost the game, JVG should have been the person to blame. Why put Yao and Cato both on the bench for the first 5 min of the 4th quarter? Then Curry got hot, and the lead shrank quickly to single digit. A 13 or 15 point lead at the beginning of the 4th is not a big enough lead for the Rockets anyway.
In the clutch, Cato and Jim Jackson won this game. Cato had a 3pt play, and scored 5pts late. And JJ had the game winning shot.
I was thinking the same thing. During his postgame interview he said that he had a few buzzer beaters while with the Heat. I was like "Hey, didnt he make one vs. us?". Looked up the stats from 2 seasons ago and saw the link above.
