ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Mavericks 5/2/2005 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 5)

McGrady takes a terrible shot, Dirk responds with a 3.

 

i hate dirks stupid fist after every jumper made. if your so good then you shouldn't get so excited over every little shot.

 

If we win this game, I'll eat my hat.


No flow.

 

the officials will not call the clutching and grabbing on the Mavs, but they call all the touch fouls on the Rockets.

it comes down to style of play. The Mavs offense relies on speed and movement, so anything that impedes that, is called.

 

Our Star didn't show up tonight. That's the bottom line. But he still has 2 more games to get it going if he can't pick it up in the 4th.

 

why not drive to the basket? Mavs is in penalty.

 

I am stunned that the Rockets are still in this game with the subpar shooting game that TMac is having and Yao's foul trouble. Now Dirk piles on a three, and the lead has ballooned to 10.

Also, this happened some time ago, but how does Deke lose that jump to Stackhouse at the end of the first half? I have no way to watch the game...just listening on the radio.

 

The bottom line is that our role players are playing worse and worse as the series goes on. We've got zero chance of winning this or the next game if Wesley, Sura, James and Barry don't collectively start hitting their outside shots and playing much better perimeter defense.

 

This Rockets team just SUCKS!!! Forget this TEAM!!!!!! I can't stand them sitting there and playing with NO HEART!!!!


FORGET THIS STUPID TEAM!!!! I HOPE THEY LOSE!!!!


Why should I be a DIEHARD FAN if this team doesn't even give a crap about winning???

 

shut up

 

we need hit some 3pts

 

Diehard fans don't say this kind of crap when their team's down.

 

You obviously have to look up the definition of "diehard", because I think you're confused about the word's usage.

 

you need to relax...we have a lot of time and we can go on a streak real easy

 

Barry really hasn't shown up since the first two games. James and Sura not playing too poorly tonight. TMac just isn't having a great game.

 

Stern is counting JVG's 100 g's right now

 

Wow, the Rockets look flat and out of rythm.

It was a good run. Now we need help at the power forward.

 

Deke's great on defense and all, but he's killing the Rockets on offense when he has chances in around the basket. He's been fumbling the ball all game. Last turnover doesn't hurt as Harris travels on the other end.

Then Deke with a catch and dunk to make me eat my previous words...

 

I am sick with the officiating......

 

McGrady is not playing well offensively, but his defense has been stellar.

McGrady just looks completely worn out, he is barely even running out there
