ClutchFans Game Thread: Grizzlies @ Rockets 12/31/2006

I think the network still hasn't come back to normal..the bandwidth is extremly limited.....I had no luck connecting either.

 

With that basket, McGrady is back in the 20.0 points per game range.

 

Moutombo is an ageless marvell. he is still in the top 5 backups in the league. boy am i glad we kept tracy. i allways had faith in tracy.

 

what a shot by tmac!

is this really the same tmac that has been playing for the rox at the beginning of the season???

 

I guess JVG's little pep talk before the ATL game worked also.

We can't win for losing. Yao is playing his best ball and then T-mac goes down. T-mac is back to the old t-mac and Yao is out. When we get both guys clicking, along with the other role players - look out NBA

 

It's frustrating to watch the Rockets stars play well without the other on the court, but in the long run, I think the Rockets will benefit, as the absence of McGrady and Yao has forced the role players to step up.

 

i hate earthquake!!!

 

This the healthy version. when healthy, he is as good as anyone in the league.

 

Mutombo is #1 in the NBA in rebounds per 48 minutes

You can't lose faith in a player as great as Tracy McGrady. You knew he would turn it on at some point. It sounds like this back treatment really worked, I actually think this is the 1st time he has been healthy since the Dallas series.

 

Howard has a new season high with these free-throws. He has done an excellent job, stepping into the starting lineup in Yao's absence.

 

I think the major contribution is the doctor @ Waco. Dumb MDs could not fix a back for so many years and a therapist did it in a couple of hours? MDs need a cut in their paycheck

 

Yes..yeah, i remember the dallas series when both of our big dwags were firing. now with the addition of bonzi and battier, we can easily get past the 1st round.

 

Im watching the game on PPMate, even though so guys think it sucks, it works for me pretty well

 

OMFG! ORLANDO TMAC IS BACK!

 

I didnt lose faith. i was the one here defending him with a few others. there was a group of idiots who were calling for hes head. the Irony is, non of them are even here now. the reason is yao is not playing. so they cant be botherd showing up.

 

I just hope that Bonzi will still be with the team once the playoffs start. Given that he's missed so much time, and hasn't contribted that much when he's played, it's looking more and more likley that the Rockets may not keep him around. It's too bad, as his style of play complements Yao and McGrady nicely.

 

dude are you ok!!?

 

I'd like to thank Rafer for showing me how bad an NBA player can shoot

 

Yeah...I noticed the excitement level here die down with Yao's injury.

 

Seems like Rafer is our weakest link. If I was Drexler, I would say something like he shoots terrible night in and night out.
