Nice quarter. I sure hope this gets T-MAC back to the level of excellence we expect from him. We need T-MAC to be T-MAC in the playoffs.
...Aww Rafer. Aww. Just...aww. But we actually have the LEAD! Wow. For once the Rockets are coming back...and not getting thier asses bitten by another team.
what does it look like when chuck shoots normal jumpers? like in shootaround and stuff.. does he have a hitch?
Its a wonderful thing! WHOO. And to people saying Mac will burn out, we only have the most gifted center on earth sitting on the bench. MINGMAC, ACTIVATE!
yeah that was a bad shot. sure he was open but lets run a play and kill some time since we just took the lead. only tmac has the green light to shoot with 20+ seconds on the shot clock.
If Tmac played like this all the time the Rockets would have clinched the 4 seed and probably would have been battling for the 3 seed. DD
24-second shotclock violaton turnover on Rafer Alston Talking more about this, unless my internet scoreboard BLEW UP ON ME again. But yeah, Rafer should only shoot open shots, imo, if he's on a roll. NOt when he's like 1-8.
NICE 3rd quarter. Outscored them by 8. Can we finish them off in the 4th? If we do, say hello to the new Rockets' finishing mentality.
I believe he was going for the 2 for 1 since there was about 40 some seconds left, and we would of gotten the ball for the last shot. Although the cirucmstances were of such, I believe Rafer would of pulled up anyways if we had 8 minutes left in the quarter or 30 seconds.
The Chinese announcers are so much more entertaining than Worrell and Clyde. The commercials are great also. Loving this broadcast so long as Tmac stays hot.
Hitch or not, this guy is a diligent worker and it's CLEAR when you see the type of improvements he has made in his game recently. Remember how this guy couldn't make layups earlier in the season? Well, he has pretty much 'fixed' that shortcoming of his. He has also worked on his FTs and is making steady progress there. Sadly, same can't be said for our starting PG, who is regressing right before our eyes...
This is the type of performace I expect from Tmac in the playoffs, and if we get anything close to this while getting Rafer and Battier to make some 3's, we will be a very tough out for anybody, including Dalls, SA or Pheonix.
