ClutchFans Game Thread: Celtics @ Rockets 3/18/2008

Rafer with a great turnover, Scola can't handle it. We don't have anything inside and Tracy plays only pick'n'rolls. I cannot understand it. Why the hell every position is a pick'n'roll for McGrady. Who no post ups, jumpers off the pick? Where are those plays? T-Mac needs to be more agressive, he's our best guy and he has only 7 shoots taken.

 

I remember someone calling Scola Scrubla many games ago and he finished with a strong game.

Ye of little faith, stop criticising and show your support the right way. He will come along fine.

And yeah, he was only playing against a scrub otherwise known as KG.

 

Tmac is choking under pressure for the past 3 games (including this one).

It's not a coincidence that hes still a 2nd round virgin.

 

7 T.O in half time? We have to protect the rock.

 

did Scola get a shoe endorsement recently? Cause he is fumbling badly in the ones he has on. How many times has he dribbled it off his foot again?

 

cm on, everyone knows T-mac waits till the 2nd half to get his points. At least he's making half of what he's putting up unlike last game.

 

my friend works for 1560 the game! dont know if this is true or if he is playing a joke on me but i asked him when landry will return and he just texted me saying landry got in a car wreck on his way to the game and is getting an MRI done!!!

 

How come they're not using Tmac in high post some. The PnR's are not working because Boston is too good at rotating around the high screen. Its making Tmac become double teamed too high and the team just stands around because of that.

 

do you not realize that the score as it changes varies the way the players play? So if we made our free throws maybe boston could have made a higher run.

anyone knowledgeable of bball knows that you cant just add the missed free throws to the score and think that would be the score.

 

okay just avoid the fact that t-mac is a great scorer and that these plays are obviously not working well because we run down the clock to less than 5 seconds before we take a damn shot

 

Worst half of basketball that I have seen Scola play. He can't hold on to the ball. Celtics are playing the best defense on the Rockets that I have seen during the streak. It is really tough inside. BUT, the game is still tied, and I am hoping for a little fatigue to set into the Celtics in the fourth. Still winnable.

 

COME ONE BE AGGRESSIVE TMAC!!!!

 

b/c we keep running the pick and roll. he scored all his pts in the first. one basket off a screen and 2 off the high post. ever since then it's the pick and roll.

tmac will ALWAYS get doubled off that play.

 

Because JVG called him the second best pnr player in the league, next to Nash.

Again our great game crashed when 1st 5 entered the game. It killed everything. And they put KG...

 

Scola is too small to be dominating inside the Boston's swarm.

 

Face it, guys- Boston is a very good defensive team. So are we. Should be interesting.

 

sometimes I love Barkley
