ClutchFans Game Thread: Knicks @ Rockets 2/12/2006

I love Tmac and of course his shooting is off.... did you realize the rockets are shooting 47.1 percent and without tmac they would be 15/22? 68.1 %... I love Tmac- hopefully he can come back strong in the second half... it cant be harder on anyone than it is on himself right now

gl tmac

 

...and yes, that female ref, Violet Palmer, is complete trash. She is only there because of some sort of affirmative action or something. If she was a he, he would have been fired ages ago. Actually, he would have never gotten a job in the first place.

There. I said it.

 

That's either YOF or closet Laker fans for ya, it happens all the time even when it has nothing to do with what's happening in the game...pretty telling.

EDIT: **** Yao is hurt

 

tmac is shooting us right out of this one.. he needs to start passing.

 

Rafer and Yao are developing some nice chemistry... if we can just get one more guy who can pass well to Yao (excluding Barry and T-mac), the big fella could start putting up gigantic numbers soon.

 

Yeah, she blows. And she blows indiscriminately.

 

JVG can't afford to take T-Mac out of this game because of his defensive abilities. However, JVG needs to tell T-Mac to stop shooting.

 

Wow, I never thought I would see the day that McGrady would be getting open shots and defenses sagging off him, and still misses.

The only problem is you can't tell him to stop shooting, because if he does he will never get out of it. Clyde is even saying he has to keep taking those shots he normally makes without a problem.

I just hope he break out of it soon in this game, he's shooting horribly, the worst shooting performance of his career IMO.

BTW, do you see how Rafer is setting Howard and then Yao? Man, what a passer! And he's knocking down his shots on top of that.

 

Yao is finally learning to seal his man off.

Use your big body Yao!!!

 

Sorry, he has to take those open jumpers, regardless of his shooting woes.

I agree that he shouldn't take any forced shot, but the open ones he has to take, there is just no way around it.

 

TMAC has to get it going, otherwise I dont think we have chance to beat team like LAC and SUNS

 

Hey.. hey.. i got an idea.. how about he shoots out of his slump in the pre-game practice.. instead in the ******* game!

 

We need to run plays for Yao more, when he still has some gas in the tank. back to back will wear him down in the 4th.

 

He needs to drive!

 

i agree, but how many open ones has he had? he's forcing too much. why not take it to the basket and get to the line? maybe that can ge thim going.

 

Wow, that has to be the first time I see Yao wave everyone off. Sweet!

 

You know Juwan Howard sucks when he gets outmuscled for a rebound by Maurice Taylor!!!

LOL! How can you get outrebounded by MO???

 

I agree he should take it in more, but I didn't see many forced shots from him today, he just hasn't made any of the ones he normally makes...heck, those shots were probably some of the easier ones he's had in recent games (single coverage or with enough room to put them up, he took about three shots with the shot clocking running down so those were bad, but he had to shoot them anyways).

 

Tmac's drive layup not that efficient, do you notice how many he missed? so I prefer he take jump no matter what and at least not hurt himself.

 

The big fella is stepping it up..........and how bout skip??
