ClutchFans Game Thread: Kings @ Rockets 2/13/2008

4 quick points from 2nites NBA action

-Ummmmm Golden State and Pheonix don't play defense.....do they REALLY expect to win a title like that? I really like Mikeal Petrius' shot blocking, though
-Manu G. and Lebron J put on a SHOW in Cleveland
-What GM gave Devean George a trade-blocking clause in his contract?
-Vince Carter really stunk it up in Toronto....is he already on the downside of his career? Is he even 30 yet? Same with Francis and Marbury....barely 30 and are on the downside of their careers.....I thought "prime years" were between 28-32. That's what Hakeem and MJ said....

 

The Kings are giving the Rockets open shots on the perimeter and it's paid off. The Rockets can't find a bucket.

Shane Battier did the smart thing this last play. He passed up the perimeter shot and drove into the paint. His layup and tip just didn't fall.

They need to go back to Yao, or bad things are going to happen.

 

he also knows how to control his FGM in the 4th

 

bench TMAC and Rafer or this is a loss.

 

so are we just through scoring for the rest of the game? didn't we have 49 with about 6 minutes left in the 2nd? luckily we didn't let sactown score much to end the half, but now they're on fire and we're still sucking.

 

Too many 3s since 2nd quarter.

 

That's a fat ass power dancer doing that belly dance.

 

great inbound play.

just as adelman drew it up.

 

Jordan in his prime was 35yrs old as shown in his last championship. He had a body made of steel.

 

TMac constantly gets the easiest defense assignments well keep bricking wide open jumpers on the offensive end, imagine what Kobe or Lebron will do on offense if they're assigned to guard Moore

 

i already said that they always wing it in the 1st half. those two will come out and play great in the second...for rafer he'll be at least subpar now

 

The guys deserve a kick in the ass.

 

"mikki moore fouled yao with his face!"

nice, bill.

 

T-Mac 3/10 shooting

 

Dont be pissed. As said, Kings is not that weak. We still have one and half quarter to go. The boosting of Kings is just a temporary illusion..

 

great cut skip!

 

clyde is still a horrible announcer

 

You got me wrong. It seems all agree on what the words came from Yao's mouth. What we disagree with each other is the interpretation of the words in the context of American culture.

It is originally a dirty phrase in Chinese (something as dirty as M-Fxxxxxx in English). But normally people say only a part of this phrase, as yao apparently did. It is so commonly used in Chinese that people already ignore its original meaning and its source. It simply means "damned" nowadays. It is used whenever a person feels angry with others or with himself.

 

There we go, either go to yao or drive to the basket and the points will come

 

I know. Just with most great players, they appear to peak at 28-32 or 33...sometimes even longer like MJ and Karl Malone.
