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

If by boring, you mean somewhat traumatic, I agree. Brooks & Scola getting 2 early fouls was horrific under the circumstances.

Unless Yao starts getting some calls this is going to get ugly.

 

CP3 is the best PG in the game

 

classic rafer

 

CP3 does have the best handles but if you think he would have the same number of assists playing in adelmans offense you're nuts. CP3 comes down the court and every play is a pick and roll.

 

10 turnovers to 10 assists is not gonna get it done.

 

Does this need to become Lowry's team, for us to be successful?

 

Von is with out a doubt better than TMac this year. No argument supports otherwise. You can see it watching the game and you can see it in the stats.

Wafer is having a bad game tonight but he is still playing with energy and competing...TMac would be pouting up and down the court.

 

Right now, as I have been saying. Kyle Lowry needs to be the starter of this team. He has much more PG qualities, he's a pass-first PG. He attacks the basket, he dishes it out, he can play the fastbreak. There's nothing he can't do besides shoot the 3 ball. He can hit the mid-range, just not the 3 ball. Possibly the next Rondo or Kidd.

 

Why has Jon barry always been a Rocket hater !! He never has anything good to say !!

 

Artest/Wafer doing their best Tmac/Alston impression in the first half.

 

Rafer 1-6 with 3 points but has 8 assists and 3 steals

annnnd only ONE turnover



A lot of rockets fans overlooked his ability to control the ball. His terrible shooting % overshadowed a lot

 

I know you are a *** so you can shut up now.

 

Do we trade up for a point guard coming out this year? Or something of that nature?

 

Rafer has 7 assists and 1 turnover
Brooks/Lowry have 6 assists and 4 turnovers

 

We need scoring with our starting 5 now with Tmac out. Brooks is a better scorer.

 

In the past, he did defend Yao Ming earlier this year saying he was the best center in basketball when they were debating about him and Dwight Howard.

He's not a Rocket hater, he's more like a realist. To be fair, nobody should think we are going to make the playoffs. I believe we can, We have our opinions they have theirs.

 

i would call 2-11 nights with 8 bad shots and 1 turnover a night with 7 turnovers bc thats what abd shots are.

 

Anyone have Tony Parker's numbers in his first game as a starter?

 

Rafer is also 1-6 from the field. Why is everyone bagging on Brooks? I could have sworn a while back there was a number of fans who wanted Brooks to start over Rafer. I believe that the Brooks-Lowry combination will work out great. In Daryl Morey, we believe!

 

Time to play solid D and cut down the turnovers and the Rockets should win this game.
