ClutchFans Game Thread: Mavericks @ Rockets 5/5/2005 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 6)

Are those guys gonna be at the game again tomorrow? I can't wait to see them crying again.

 

Victory !

[Eat that Charles]

 

mike james for prez.
dirk = overrated
mutumbo is a bad azz
which refs will show up in game 7?
sura made use of his time and put that punk on the floor
TMAC is going to make a name for himself in game 7 and show the league who the real MVP is.
suns are hoping mavs win.
i believe

 

Hope we win Game 7 on Saturday!!

It just sucks the 2nd round will start on Monday--not a lot of rest for the winner after a hard fought series like this one

 

Great win. I have only two concerns:

1. Mike James is going to shoot too often in Game 7.
2. No way Dallas can shoot that poorly again.

Still, we got our business taken care of. No one can doubt TMac's a big-game player. And we already know when our role players are hitting open jumpers, we can't lose. If our bench shows up in Game 7, TMac will find a way.

 

That's alright... this is the playoffs... no time to be WEAK.

If the Rockets win on Saturday, and then don't have their legs on Monday... its fine... a 7 game series is a long series, and this one has shown that anything can happen from game to game.

 

one thing became extremely evident to me tonight.



Dirk Nowitzki's punk ass IIISSS the new Karla Malone

he shall now be named Dirka Malone!

floppin ass, needin to resort to cheap tactics to try to win a game baby!

 

Best game of the year!

 

Yea... but we play well in Dallas... I'm confident in that... and there's no way we play as bad as we did in game 5 there, where we only lost by 3.

The Mavs are going to have to BEAT us... and they're supposedly still waiting to start playing their best ball... I don't think that's magically going to happen in game 7.

 

Someone remind me again - How in the blue hell did we a$$-rape Weisbrod so badly that we got T-Mac out of it?

(P.S: BTW Nice sig Sam )

 

The defense in the 4th looked infinitely better than it has all series, and I think a lot of it has to do with Deke.

The Maverick guards have been able to penetrate in the lane all series long which has forced the defense to shift and help Yao out so he doesn't get into foul trouble. This has resulted in a lot of wide open perimeter shots for the Mavs.

Contrast this to when Deke was in the game. When the guards penetrate, Deke does not need anyone to help him. He can handle the paint all by himself. This allows the rest of the Rockets to stick with their men on the perimeter and not give up those wide open 3's that they've been giving to Terry, Finley, and Stack.

 

Yee Haw! Back to D-Town for Game 7 and the series.

 

Game seven Yao Tmac both 30+ and rockets win again!

 

Great game, it's going to be tough but the team has to give it their all once again in a rowdy arena. Can't wait!

 

Ok seriously, why are you guys saying the ROCKETS had the refs on THEIR SIDE TODAY???


The ROckets played hard DEFENSE and EARNED THIS VICTORY.

To be honest, I felt this was the most fairly officialled game all series.

 

who did Sura put on the floor? missed it, thanks for the recap.

 

Deke is just incredible. For my money, he's a better defensive player than Ben Wallace.

 

I beg our Rockets players not bragging this win today and tomorrow. They never backup their words after great wins.

Be prepared for #7!!!

 

To be fair, Rockets got way more bad calls from refs in previous games, but for this one refs let a lot contacts go in 4th quarter. It's still 1-5 in favor of Mavs.

 

Players get fined/suspended for making contact with refs. I'm sure coaches would suffer the same fate. So whats the penalty for refs making contact with coaches/players?
