Chuck Hayes has earned himself on this team for the rest of the season. So when they lose the 16th spot, they should waive Moochie. He has no future in this league and JL3 pasted him on the depth chart.
Oh Baby! How sweet it is! FINALLY a god darn win...I think I am getting teary-eyed right now **Sings: We're the champions, my friends** (OK, I am getting ahead of myself here, I know) Man...T-Mac, Juwon, Wesley, Hayes: played like men today, I am damn proud of those guys, they are Tru Warriors (no pun intended, Ron). I just wish McGrady was healthy this season. Even if Yao was injured and out for 6-7 weeks, if McGrady was healthy and played all those games, we would be a .500 team or somewhere around there, and then Yao would come back and we would be making our final push for a higher seed. The basketball gods have been unkind to us this season, and that's an understatement.
WHoooooo!!!! Finally! Great job by TMac, Juwon and Hayes!! Rafer and Wesley played big minutes and did their parts, too. It was so great to see some of that T-Mac magic back in the lineup! Chuck Hayes really came to play tonight! He didn't back down an inch. The guy isn't tall or a great defender, but he sure has a knack for rebounding. Looks like he may be ready to play at this level. Which is great, because we could sure use him.
This just in.. Tracy McGrady is not human.. 5 games off and the man plays 40 mins and has 35 points 9 Rebounds and 6 dimes..
T-Mac was excellent tonight, really took over the game and put the team on his ailing back. Chuck Hayes was a great pick-up, looked great with that double-double, especially that crucial offensive rebound to give T-Mac the second chance at the shot. Good win to break the losing streak.
But maybe the basketball gods is using this opportunity to let us define ourselves, to show the true character of this team. I am not giving up now, when Yao is back, we are going to make one of the most furious pushes towards the end.
AFT!!! ROCKETS WIN!!! I feel so much better. CH has earn to be on the team with this game. I hope the Rockets still make a move and get rid of Stro. Any news of YAO playing this Friday??
What?!! I didn't hear any speculation about Yao playing a week from now. Man, that would be GREAT news, and THAT is an understatement.
Hayes really impressed me. Don't give up. We still have chance. Let's have a Nugget's run after the Chinese New Year.
