Even if we find a way to win this game teams will now know that all they have to do is put a bunch of tall athletics guys in and thats the way to beat the Rockets !!
My thoughts exactly...Hayes gave us the enrgy Landry would offer us, but neither Scola or Hayes are giving the offensive agressiveness to make the Hawks pay for doubling T-Mac.
we sure did choose the right game to shoot poorly... this is when we miss the big fella.. we're still in this game let's GO ROCKETS!!!
u also have to understand they are athletic from 1-5 on the court (atlanta that is). even josh smith is more athletic than tmac.
Key to Win 1. Tmac not handle too much ball. 2. Tmac shot high percentage jump. 3. Rafer play like what he did in this streak. 4. Head, Battier, Rafer, Novak, BJ shot 3s in. 5. D, D, D 6. When Tmac go to rest, let Scola post some. 7. Give AB a try. He is good when Tmac go to rest, AB/BJ/Rafer, Head/Tmac, Novak/Battier, Hayes/Scola, ???/Deke
You talk so much crap about our players! Rafer can play 8 mins in the 4th and Rox will still win. His shot selection is crap but he's trying to get in rhythm. He just needs to penetrate. And it should be "this is a lost"! Go and watch the Comets!
every one will have an off night. Rafer has been terrific for the last 15-20 games. give him a break and he will bounce back
pos min fgm-a 3pm-a ftm-a +/- off def tot ast pf st to bs ba pts R. Alston G 17:45 2-15 1-7 0-0 -4 0 2 2 6 1 1 1 0 1 5 not too bad on assist, but should stop shooting when hands are cold, hate to see those nonsense floaters.... find an open man or at least find Tmac
Actually, "the worst starting PG" should be printed on his jersey to remind him that he sucks at shooting.
come on tmac hit these ft's to give us more cheap points on top of battier's easy little foul last time.
