ClutchFans Game Thread: Raptors @ Rockets 2/28/2007

Snyder - 0 minutes
Bonzie - 16 minutes
Jake - 6 minutes
J. Howard - 30 minutes, 8 pts., 4 boards

JVG - a genius at matchups

 

Heh, a slightly amusing thought. Maybe Skip will stop thinking we're better without Yao after this game.

 

I am with you on this one. Get Snyder and VSpan on the court at least these two will drive to the basket.

 

bonzi walked out in the 4qr before the game was over, went staight to the locker room..my bro was at the game. who knows what happened..

 

i'm not sure but bonzi seems to have some concern while on the floor.he may have pulled something

 

Well I was off on the stat breakdown, but not far off on the score. I had a feeling the Raps would score 100+ and have to withstand a 3rd quarter Rox run, but I did see it being closer than it ended up being tonight.

I hear that your announcers, Clyde in particular, were praising the Raps most of the game - I'm sorry you guys had to sit through that while your team was making a poor showing.

 

Rafer 5-13 FG, again. He does not deserve so many shoots.

 

When is Yao coming back? LOL!

 

With 4.2 assists per 48 minutes, John Lucas III is ranked 64th out of 69 as a point guard in NBA.

Tonight, JL3 played 12 minutes and dished out, guess what, 0 assist, again.

Selfish NBDL midget as PG + JVG's stagnant and predictable offense = recipe for disaster

 

He did make a couple of nice passes that we just clanked.....as did V-Span...

just got back from the game..... that sucked. I never thought that the Rockets would lose to atlanta, Boston, and Toronto. I remember thinking after the Miami game, that the Rockets should be 37-19. Well we are 35-22. Come on Rockets!!!! lets get everything together.

 

You gotta like how V-Span came in and drove to the basket when he had the ball. That was something we could have used earlier in the game from others.

 

Look, watching Toronto play all those young players made me a bit jealous. I know our record is better, and we are missing Yao, but I could not help but wonder how much better we would be if V-Span was the primary backup PG all year, and Snyder was in the lineup more often......

Those two guys have more footspeed than either Rafer or Luther....and tonight we needed quickness on the perimeter in a bad way....if you think this was bad, wait until we face Phoenix...UGH !

Dude, I wasn't being sarcastic if that's what you thought. Billy came in, drove, and got to the foul line. This was something that could have benefited us earlier in the game. Of course, I probably mistook what you were saying, and if so, ignore this comment.

 

On a POSITIVE note, anyone else notice that blonde girl in the stands with about 2:25 to go in the first half......SHE WAS BEAUTIFUL !!

YEAH BABY !!

The rockets are better team with T-mac and without Yao?

I wonder what skip ballless will say after these losses??

 

I think even with Yao tonight the Rockets would have been pounded.

The team had no energy...mabye Yao can come in and kick some butt and get these guys kick started before we drop to the six seed.

Goddammit! Why can I, an idiot fan on a basketball message board, have called this, yet our head coach remains oblivious? This is so frustrating!!

 

I saw 2 girls then, which one you were talking about? The left or the right one ?
