    He'll defend McHale for losing this series because they were 50/50 coin toss losses. Never mind that we're getting blown out in all of the defeats.

    Our offense is more embarrassing than the Hack Attack...Atleast score off of the bonus possessions

    They did use it against Dwight extensively in the regular season. Shaq's argument that the Rockets are "Scared" is idiotic.

    They are merely playing the %s

    The problem is they can't score on the other end any ways.

    Let's see if the Rockets want to keep playing basketball for a couple of more weeks or not.

    You know, if we advance and we have "give up" games against the Dubs like we did against the Clips. They may legit outscore us by 50 or 60.

    I'm pretty sure Doc Rivers didn't leave Jordan in too long when the Spurs did it. Otherwise, they would have kept fouling like we just did.

    Harden and Howard have been totally effective.... when they actually do stuff... they need to do more stuff!

    If someone told Shaq that the Clippers are averaging about 0.6 points more per possession when the Rockets don't hack he'd just say, "but they're still losing. hacking doesn't work...derp, derp."

    Might as well foul out the bench by 6 minutes in the 4th, so Howard can't foul out. It will take 33 fouls to get the entire bench fouled out, and we can set all sorts of records along the way. Once we only have five eligible players every foul after 6 for a player is a tech.

    If we do this, the hack a player rules will have to be changed due to fan outrage. I think I'll go to bed and check the score in the morning though, cause I don't enjoy watching this, win or lose.

    Rockets refuse to defend. It is what it is. Likely ball game, because they simply won't get stops.

    I would consider Josh Smith a "hack-a" scrub at this point. Only thing I'd use him for.

    I don't think its that simple...they are trying this game...they just don't have the discpline to. They've been playing pickup ball all year long but teams don't play the same way in the post season and the game slows down way more.
