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

Houston Rockets thats my team! Win or lose.

 

This team is full of great role players who should all be proud of themselves.

It's too bad the "star" doesn't have a heart.

 

Rocket is indeed a better team without Yao???

 

Like Matt Bullard said, I am kind of happy that the streak is now over, it has been riding the Rockets back for a long time 48 DAYS!! Now that they have finally lost, they keep put the streak behind them and move on and focus on the playoffs.

Rockets WILL ALWAYS BE MY TEAM!! GO ROCKETS! KEEP YOUR HEADS UP!

look at the bright side, even the defending champs lost to them at full power

 

This game shows that throughout the streak, we have been winning by simply out-hustling other teams. We don't have the talent (look at the list of D-leaguers), size (no Yao or Landry, getting outrebounded, people shooting over us), or the experience to compete on the big stage this year.

You can't blame this team for busting its ass out on the court every night, but the cold fact remains that the team we have right now is not talented enough to even think about a title.

It also doesn't help that Tom Theubideau knows our players like the back of his hand and can utilize defense schemes accordingly (see: Don Nelson vs Mavericks), but that's a discussion for another day...

It was good while it lasted, but it would be foolish to bet the house on this year's playoff run.

There's always next year...

 

We won in the last 22 games....
It is ok for 1 loss
awesome Rox

 

Boston was just too big down low. This game was lost down low.

Scola had an off night...didnt seem like he had a nose for the ball tonight.

No Landry, no Yao meant a huge chunk of rebounds gone. When you rely on a 6'6'' Mike Harris for boards against Perkins and Garnett, you're in trouble.

Thanks for the win streak, Rockets. It's time to stay focused. Get your head up...especially the role players. Keep up the intensity.

 

First half is ok. But 2nd half is a disaster.
TMAC- he just can't score in this game. He will come back. Don't worry.
Rafer-good job in 1st half
Scola-normal
luther-.....
Mike-great
BJ-dood
hayes-normal
mutomubo-now I start to worry that his energy saved by yao is going to fade away.

 

i hope you haven't been waiting for a rockets loss just to post that

 

Hey this is what I have wanted to see for a while now, how will we respond after our first loss. The world is waiting for us to just crumble. Let's prove them wrong!

 

SIZE

The story of this game

But all the fans were leaving before the end of the game ON NATIONAL TV That cant be good for the franchise

 

Boston played great and Tmac didn't show up... Blah.

 

Adelman totally forgot to use Novak. His slow reaction at the begining of the third quarter was one of the reason of lossing game.

 

it's too bad when kenny and charles are more respectful to this team then a whole bunch of "fans" in the game action thread. oh well, here come the haters.

size was a big problem and it has been for a while, nobody could expose it like kg and the celtics though. landry may be integral to salvage this week.

 

Mosque are for Fridays haha. And if you're an atheist,well just hope KG tears all of his bodily organs from just plain coincidence.

 

Ah welp......Time to start another streak!!!


STANDING OVATION TO MY ROCKETS!!!!!!!!!!

 

What's worse, the fans leaving or the STAR PLAYER QUITTING?
