ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Cavaliers 2/19/2008

who else do u want to shoot? our best inside scorer is 2-9.

it's time to run some plays for rafer and use tmac/yao as decoys.

 

that's great. but yao is pretty much the antithesis of quick.

 

What was Adelman and Dikembe so angry about? I've seen worse calls before...

 

what a great game

 

stars get star calls because they are usually the aggressor.

eg. if wade drives 2 times in a row, drawing 2 fouls... the next time he drives and there is any contact there will be a star call because the ref excpects there to be another foul.

 

The only thing worse than T-mac chucking it at the end to finish a half is Rafer chucking it at the end.

 

brick fest from both team. WTF does Alston throw up a shoot with 4 sec left?

 

LOL yao and tmac suck this game.

 

The Rockets look rusty as hell. Thankfully the Cavs aren't any better.

On nights like tonight you can really see that the Rockets are #2 in defense and #17 in offense. Defense is the only thing keeping the Rox in the game right now.

 

you should create a sig that says "i'd rather be watching the warriors/suns game"

aren't you used to grind it out games by now?

 

too much rest is no good

 

McGrady has often slow start, I think he will lead us in the 2nd half, at least I hope.

 

I have seen Rafer call his number and attempt a number of shots to end the quarter lately.

Anyone else find this disturbing?

 

We should try some rafer and yao pNrs. we actually did that a lot when t-mac was out.

And Adelman should keep matching Novak up with Marshall, sooner or later Novak will make his daily quota of 2-3 three point bombers.

 

Go back to the offense and look for Scola.

 

You don't lose your handle in a 1 month period.


I think the problem is that McGrady is thinking too much when he's on the court. He used to just go out there and try to get the job done, the constant criticism is getting to him.

 

We're fine as long as Lebron can't get anything done also. Our role players > their role players.

 

No field goals for LeBron after a half. This is good.

 

I think he's still a step behind in his speed which probably explains why he can't take advantage of 1v1. Hope he recovers his energy by playoffs.

 

I think there's a pretty good chance the Rockets will knock at least some of the rust off and come out hotter in the second half. I don't expect the three superstars to keep sucking either.
