The Hawks played a good game and the Rockets showed some fight at the end. I thought the inability to get loose balls killed the Rockets tonight. As many three pointers as we hit tonight, they were hurt by Battier and Head being really off in this area, too. Oh well, fight on next time.
battier 1-4 head 0-4 bonzi 1-6 cmon guys, just one stepping up and we win. i'm serious. i'm pissed. bad loss. wasted a great tmac effort.
So the Hawks have beaten the Suns, Spurs, Pistons and now the Rockets... That's what happens when you take another NBA team lightly...JVG knows that.
Only 8 points total off the bench for the Rox. I agree, maybe JVG needs to expand the 8 man rotation a bit and get Snyder on the court for just a few minutes.
Rockets won't last in playoffs if JVG doesn't loosen up his stangle hold on the bench. It's just not smart to force guys like head and shane to play big mins when they are sucking the whole night. Worst I see these heavy mins leading to another injury! Knock on wood.
i was talking about snyder. who also is apparently not going to play despite playing awesome in hist 1st and last game back.
For a team that is fighting for a homecourt spot this is not acceptable no matter how bad they played if JVG ever gets it that in the playoffs is find and dandy to play only 8 players but in the reagular season he needs to play more of his bench for Snyder, Jake, and VSpan not to play at all is a joke and bringing Snyder for a minute is a joke.
bad loss. very bad loss. The Rockets have no excuse for losing this game. they werent focused and didnt come in prepared to play. The only one of them that has any heart is McGrady.
It is not fare to blame any player for tonight's game. we all watched the loss since the first quarter. it is the fault of the coach he has to see who is having a hard time tonight and do what is necessary to win the game not to hold his EGO, even if it means trying different guys because that might be their night and he is taking it away from them.
JJ should have been guarded by Tmac, but still Battier did not show up tonight. Whatever, it's my 21st bday, cant be that mad. We better get one in Orlando on Sun
I've been a VG supporter from the start but this loss goes on him even though 3 of our key players sucked. I don't see how playing Snyder would have hurt us, we probably would have won if he played.
lol pretty embarrassing losing to the Hawks. Take a team lightly, don't come out with energy/intensity, and that's what happens. Orlando's going to be a damn tough game as well. Who's going to stop Dwight Howard on the boards and down low?
