Clutchfans Game Thread: Mavericks @ Rockets 2/20/2009

Expect Yao to carry this team more with his production with Alston gone it's also going to be hard to get the ball to Yao.

Not a good trade, Lowry isn't even a good shooter.

 

Rockets fail due to all the drama.

 

i hope rox blow them out, but if they cant a win is awlays nice.

 

Lowry should be playing, or at least dressed, right?

 

i'd be shocked if the rockets can keep this loss below 15 pts

 

With Rafer, this would be a win. Without our floor general, probably a loss. However, trading away Skip is probably better for the long-term because he has no upside. Lowry and Brooks do have upside so while we may lose this battle we may yet win the war.

 

Right on the money, Rafer Alston is at his prime/peak now. I just wished they would have traded him earlier or later. Really, Alston has been playing amazing ever since T-Mac stopped playing.

Really wasn't the right move to move him then. Morey is making some brain fart decisions here, I thought the Rockets are suppose to be the present not the future.

 

Definetly wrong time to move him, the offseason would've been better if they really wanted Rafer gone.

We definetly lose now....

 

We're probably gonna lose this one. Stat line of the night: Brooks with 23 shot attempts and 1 assist.

 

i want to see the lowry guy on


i wish the rockets good luck


LET'S GO ROCKETS

 

Prediction: Aaron Brooks will prove to everybody he can start and put up numbers and will go berserk and score a career high..!!

Do ya'll think Lowry will pass his physicals and be ready to play by tomorrow?

 

Don't lose your faith, guys...On the bright side, Lowry and Wafer are gonna constantly attack the rim !

 

Tracy McGrady!

 

Aaron Brooks has a killer night scoring a new season high, thanks to Rafer's minutes.

Yao Ming gets it going in the first half, but struggles late in the second half.

Von Wafer steps up off the bench and has a very good night.

Artest takes over in the fourth quarter to edge the Rockets to a victory.

Final Score:

98-96

ROCKETS WIN!!!!

 

<font size=3 face=times>We'll see how the new look Rockets will look against them Dallas Ponies since they won't have their Rocket killer (J. Terry).

 

You hush.

 

no alston, lowrey and cook WIN 105-98

 

Dressed possibly. Playing no. I think its impossible. He doesn't even know the plays or anything.

 

The post Rafer era begins lol

 

What's with all the pessimism regarding this game. Is Terry still out for the Mavs? If so, it would be a big plus. And if I recall correctly, Brooks played quite well in the 2nd half when the Rockets played them the first time this season while Alston was not much of a factor.
