ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Nuggets 1/12/2007

T-Mac is standing to close to the free throw line. He used to stand about a foot back a season or two ago.

 

No, it is all in his head.......he is just worried that it MIGHT be an issue.

The team looks very sluggish today, like they took cough medicine or something... good thing the Nuggets suck. I think the ROckets are waking up though, we'll blow them out in the 2nd.

 

well we are getting outrebounded right now which usually doesn't happen. i would expect a better rebounding effort in the second half. deke only has 5, he's averaging 14. i'd like to see him do a better job on camby.

if we fix that i would bet we have a very solid chance of winning this one.

 

Denver's record this season when they fail to score 100 is 0-12. They have 41 points at the half. I like our chances.

 

It's the thin air up there in Mile High city.

That and the hangover from the WhowantstosexMutombo party the other night.

 

every time tmac has an interview he scares the heck out of the fans.

mental problems, emotional problems, physical problems... he just loves talking about this stuff even when its not a real issue for him.

 

Hopefully we can put them away in the third, that's our quarter.

I am not too worried, our energy level absolutely sucked in the first half and we played carelessly, yet we lead by 3 at the half, all with AI going off early in the game with O-fer guarding him (theoretically speaking, that is). May be it's the cold weather outside, we tend to struggle in the first half of games in cold-weather towns, and we tend to pick it up a bit as the game progresses (seems to be the case tonight).

As I said, one good quarter might be all it takes...

 

I really don't think he wants to talk about it, but that is what he gets asked about.

 

LOL NBA.com sucks. The game update is stuck at 10:28 in the 2nd quarter!

 

nba.com has gone down hill. go to yahoo.

 

Yahoo list us traling 41 to 44, what the heck?

 

by the way:

go orlando!!!!! they need to beat the lakers tonight. that would be a nice swing for us if we can with this game too!

 

Alston with another 0-fer, the good news is he's only taken 4 shots. This is interesting:

Rafer in 15 minutes: 2 pts, 2 assists
JL III in 9 minutes: 4 pts, 3 assists

 

yes, but it's up to date! unlike nba.com.

 

Dammit Al Gore what the hell did you do to the Internet!?

 

How ironic is it that the first highlight they show of AI is actually a missed call (he traveled)?

T-Mac having a 'Rafer' performance from the charity stripe tonight...

 

WOW T-Mac with the near airball on the free throw!

 

more missed FT's for tmac.....

 

Those missed free throws better not come back to haunt us later...
