ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Bulls 12/22/2007

We lose by 30.

Trade Tracy

 

I think T-Mac will rest this one and play against Detroit.

Rockets put together a good team effort and win, Brooks' coming out party.

 

man remember like a month or so ago when the Rockets were the top topic on all the major sport sites, they were giving us the #1 rank in all the rankings projected to come out of the west as the #1 team, talking about how good our bench is........man did we show them how wrong they were and now at this point of the season we are still making all the websites but for wrong reasons the most disappointing team of the season(Rockets and the Bulls)

 

Mcgrady or no Mcgrady...let's get back on the winning track!

 

Predicting a W (I don't do that very often) even though I've got a really bad feeling in my bones about this game. Yao often underperforms terribly against Wallace.

Toronto L (embarassing)
Philadelphia L (hideous; Yao calls the team soft after this)
Detriot W (predicted L and we deserved an L)
Dallas L (predicted L; terrible loss at home)
Orlando L (predicted L; like Detroit game, FTs and layups were horrible again)
Denver L (predicted L; tough loss, make FTs and we win; however, ...)
=================================
Chicago W
Detroit L
Memphis W (thinking of changing this to a L because Gay will own us)
Toronto L
Golden State L
Boston L
Orlando L

(14-19)

 

The more times I see you post this the more depressed you make me. Good thing I look at the bright side most of the time. I'm learning to appreciate your predictive abilities, no matter how much I hate them.

 

PLEASE GOD LET THEM DON'T LOSE!

 

brooks drops a double double

 

we might as well go into the lottery if your prediction turns out to be true

 

YO!!!!
WAT A GWAAN!!!
WAT A GWAAN!!!
HAHA!!!
HO!!!!
SEAN KINGSTON!!!
J.R.!
MONEY!!!

[Chorus]
We can go to the tropics
Sip piña coladas
Shorty I could take you there
Or we can go to the slums
Where killas get hung
Shorty I could take you there
You know I could take ya (I could take ya...)
I could take ya (I could take ya...)
Shorty I could take you there
You know I could take ya (I could take ya...)
I could take ya (I could take ya...)
Shorty I could take you there

Baby girl I know it's rough but come wit me
We can take a trip to the hood
It's no problem girl it's my city
I could take you there(take you there)
Little kid wit guns only 15
Roamin' the streets up to no good
When gun shots just watch us, run quickly
I could show you where

As long you're wit me
Baby you'll be alright
I'm known in the ghetto
Girl just stay by my side(my side)
Or we can leave the slums go to paradise
Babe it's up to you,
It's whatever you likeee

[Chorus]
We can go to the tropics
Sip piña coladas
Shorty I could take you there(OH!!)
Or we can go to the slums
Where killas get hung
Shorty I could take you there
You know I could take ya (I could take ya...)
I could take ya (I could take ya...)
Shorty I could take you there
You know I could take ya (I could take ya...)
I could take ya (I could take ya...)
Shorty I could take you there
[Take You There lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]


Shorty come wit me it's no worry
I know the bad men them where I stay
Police fly pursuit in a hurry
This is no gun play
Don't be scared in the West Indies
It's Jamaica, that's where I'm from
Might see something you're not used to
Welcome to the slums

As long you're wit me
Baby you'll be alright
I'm known in the ghetto
Girl just stay by my side
Or we can leave the slums go to paradise
Babe it's up to you,
It's whatever you likeeee

[Chorus]
We can go to the tropics
Sip piña coladas
Shorty I could take you there(I could take ya there..take ya)
Or we can go to the slums
Where killas get hung
Shorty I could take you there
You know I could take ya (I could take ya...)
I could take ya (I could take ya...)
Shorty I could take you there
You know I could take ya (I could take ya...)
I could take ya (I could take ya...)
Shorty I could take you there

Or we (or we)
Can go (can go)
To a place (to a place)
I know you gon' like (oh oh oh)
The beach (the beach)
The breeze (the breeze)
West Indies, I call it paradise

[Chorus]
We can go to the tropics
Sip piña coladas
Shorty I could take you there
Or we can go to the slums
Where killas get hung
Shorty I could take you there
You know I could take ya (I could take ya...)
I could take ya (I could take ya...)
Shorty I could take you there
You know I could take ya (I could take ya...)
I could take ya(I could take ya...)
Shorty I could take you there

 

Shame on people that says that our team is better without T-Mac. That proves that they dont know what is basketball. Our players have like just one good game without him ( We didnt even win that game) and people start saying that we are better without him. What about the games earlier in the season. When the team was struggling without T-Mac. I predict that if T-Mac dont play next game, our team will struggle.

 

After 5 games, you will say T-Mac is the best player cuz he will have great games.

 

Loss.

*shrug*

 

If we loose this one, I will predict this team to be a lottery team.

 

I don't know what the point of the song lyrics were but I do hope Steve can get it together in his return to the team and play decently. I'm taking a game where he at least scores in double figures and aggressively attacks.

 

They just need to the ball down low to Yao!

anybody seen that video with Clyde saying "get the ball down low to Yao!" then cursing. It's hilarious.

I am going to predict a win for Rox because I like to dream the impossible dream.

At least, if this is another loss, please don't make it a double OT affair.

 

I honestly would rather Chicago pump us by about 30 rather than lose like the Denver game...

however having watched the Bulls against Boston, they are beatable.

whoever sucks the least will win

 

Rockets are a bogey team for the Bulls. If Rockets lose then that will be a bad sign. This should be an easy game even without McGrady.

 

I made my predictions after the disgusting loss in Philadelphia. Many thought we had hit rock bottom then, but it turns out we haven't. BTW, it is very hard for me to predict any wins for this team in the next especially with an injured TMac but I guess I'll stick with my predictions for now. We might not even have 14 wins after the next 7 in which case, we can almost mail the season in. That would be SUPER DEPRESSING given the hope the Rockets generated in the off season.
