ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Kings 12/8/2005

Reef just swiped him in the face. I don't want to be a homer, but the refs really let him get killed. I wish it made sense, but it doesn't.

 

At this rate, Yao is going to look like this at the end of the season

 

Putting Stromile on Brad and shutting down the pick and pop was the key to the game.

 

Did I just see a blonde Doug Collins?

 

We're 2-0 in games where Yao is openly bleeding this year... maybe we might have to continue the trend.

Just make sure we type and cross-match Yao's blood-type so we can re-fill him in case he becomes anemic.

 

if everytimes yao bleeds, and rockets win.. then i will say please continue to bleed for 60 more games

 

I like that look on him, it suits him, and it will just piss him off more and more until the dragon is finally unleashed.

May be it will do for him what the beard did for Gashole.

 

Why isn't this our starting lineup?

 

Good call there.

 

BOOOOOOOOOO. Stro shoulda thrown down a sick dunk when stole that ball. Entertain us dammit.

 

Houston is BACK

 

Atleast DA knocked his free throws down.

 

Yao's face looks terrible. It seems like that he is right off the torture chamber,

 

McGrady makes such a huge difference to the outcome of these close games. It's not just offensively mind you. I saw two or three steals that were thanks to him. And either he got some nice deflections that lead to other Rockets to pick up the ball, or he was able to claim it for himself. For a good two or three minutes, we just shut them out. It was either a steal by McGrady, or a block by Stromile. And Stromile again showed flashes of brilliance in the 4th quarter. He had 3 straight plays that resulted in a nice put back dunk, making a contested bucket in the paint, or a nice pass that he created in the paint for Yao to dunk. I know everyone here, and any basketball fan in the leagues says this, but if he could ever do that kind of thing consistently, he'd be an all star every year and would be deserving of the max. The funny thing is after those 3 brilliant plays, he goes and gets over excited on the next offensive possession, and tries to go left in the paint and create a bucket for himself. What does he do in that possession? The ball slips out of his hand and goes into the stands. Just makes you shake your head at talent like that not being used to it's fullest potential.

Good win for the Rockets. Lets hope this is a further continuation to a nice a winning streak to bring the Rockets back or close to .500 by the end of December.

 

Who's bashing JVG? Did I ever type "fire JVG" anywhere in this thread? I said we need a new defensive/offensive scheme. If you think our current plan is working, then you need to take a good look at our record.

 

And he's not a bad interviewer... and T-mac gets to rest that back faster.

 

Did anysee the reaction of the trainer when Yao got back to the bench, he was like "GOD DAMN"

 

Now THAT was a good game.

 

Wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwiiiinnnnnnn!!!!! Here comes the road trip sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeepppp.

 

He cant be any worse the osterfag.
