ClutchFans Game Thread: Hornets @ Rockets 2/3/2007

Worell keeps mentioning the Rockets are 0-2 against Minn. Didn't the Rockets beat the T-Wolves earlier this season??

 

Scott Padgett with a dunk!

Ok lol I'm happy with this game even if we lost.

 

Just an off night. In addition to Rafer being out. And Yao.

We'll be back.

 

Yeah Bill is wrong

 

No turnovers for Vspan

 

hey vspan had2 points in 3 minutes. if you take tmacs minutes and exptpprlance
them that gives him vasilli 25!

 

we just gave Mark Stein a reason to put Rockets number 5 or below in Power Rankings

 

Game over. Now its time to start the fire JVG, trade T-Mac, and play Vspan and Novak threads. I wouldn't really worry too much about this loss, we just had an off night.

 

I see that too. His free throws are bad and outside shot terrible. Just another game in the positive direction though and yeah hopefully he can find some shooting form.

You're right, Rockets beat them 82-75 end of November.


In before the possible lock

 

The Rockets were due for a stinker of game. I am just glad the team has a good record. I curious why Snyder has not been playing is he still injured?

 

Off topic here but if it rains on tomorrows SuperBowl, which team does it benefit more?

 

It is acceptable to have an off night, but the way this team played tonight is terrible. I wish some bench player had been sent to the floor and give Paul a hard foul. It is unacceptable that the other guy gives you a punch, you just swallow your teeth with blood.

 

The Hornets played very well defensively, but many of the Rockets shots were uncontested, they couldn't hit much of anything. Very embarassing game for the Rockets. So much for playing with "attitude," they got thoroughly whipped. I hope they can bounce back, because this was an ego-deflating loss. Is Rafer this important to this team? The boy can't shoot any better than the rest of the team did tonight, but they sure looked lost without him. The Rockets definitely need some more help at PG. Lucas shows me nothing.

 

wonder what's gonna happen to the power rankings this week?

 

Right, JVG is as stubborn as a donkey to admit that JL3 and Head are no PG material. He should give Bill a try cause we got nothing to lose. The entire game stinks.

 

It does look like the Rockets do need a backup PG. I really thought that they needed a backup C but what is out there that the expiring TE(Feb.15) can get you?

 

Rafer out of game is the biggest loss to the rockets. He runs game much better than JLIII or Head. I even miss his 3 pointers.

 

The only positive i see coming from this game is that JVG and Dawson may finally realize that this team needs another point gaurd in case Rafer gets injured or, like tonight, gets ejected. Lucas looks lost and holds on to the ball too much( ala Steve Francis), Head is a two-guard stuck in a point guard body, and Vspan is just not ready. An Earl Watson or Chucky Atkins could have helped us tonight.

 

wow be serious ppl on this board need to hop off vspan piece yall riding it little bit to hard

 

VMac showed nothing tonight to tell me he gets the backup minutes, gotta love all our armchair QBs thinking that VMac will all of a sudden turn things around...JVG sees these players more then us and we think we have the answers...sheesh
