Whoever that was earlier saying that he didn't like gamblers, and that he liked Battier. Well, Battier just gambled and cost us points. Players gamble, it happens.
This game should not be making me this nervous. I'm so worried we're about to choke it away in the fourth again.
So the nets known as the worst team in the NBA comes in tonight shooting better from the 3pt line than even we do. Then Boone who is known as a terrible FT shooter hits at least half of his shots. Things don't look good for the Rockets with the way the stars are aligned.
Right. That was still almost a calculated gamble. The ball bounced way far from the dribbler. Thats usually like shark food to defenders. Though if Ariza did it he'd be an "unsound" defender
jarvis hayes and chase budinger are some sort of balancing forces of the universe or something. budinger shoots 3's decently well and yet in the few minutes i've ever seen of him, i think he's about 1-10 or 1-11 on 3's. jarvis hayes is a 26% 3 point shooter and yet in the few minutes i've seen of him this season, he has got to be better than 60% on 3's, like 8-12 or 9-13 or something. he's even taking crazy 3's and bouncing them in now. if they ever run into each other they might annihilate each other.
Oh, I'm not mad at Battier for gambling, I was just commenting how someone hated Ariza for it, and acted as if Battier never gambled on a defensive play. Nothing wrong with gambling from time to time. Big 3 by Trev...and an amazing shot by Scola!
