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

He needs to stop thinking and just shoot them, he's pulling his hands now every time he shoots it. Heck, he might want to bank them in for the remainder of this game. I have never seen him shoot this badly from the FT line, it's completely uncharacteristic.

 

i'll say this in waltons defense:

the suns have better one-on-one defenders. this may be decieving when watching a game live. marion, thomas, bell, and diaw are all great defenders. the rockets on the other hand play great TEAM defense.

 

I would imagine so...

he's possibly the worlds most famous YOF!!

 

T-Mac is a forward. Bruce Bowen is a forward. So Bruce Bowen is unprofessional because he can't make FT's? This is not a reputation of T-Mac. He's just not feeling it right now with his shot. He needs to get into a rhythm. I'm sure the cold isn't helping him. Regardless, he's doing enough to have the lead.

 

Whoa.

 

Damn! Just got there a second too late.

 

TMAC is older than Deke.

 

oh gosh, will camby get 30 rebounds tonight?

 

Camby has 20 boards already!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Agreed.

 

Battier is the man, Deke is the leader.

 

Camby has the wrong uni on the way he shoots FT's.

 

I loooove Steve Blake's decision making,


dribble dribble dribble pass

dribble dribble dribble dribble dribble (open A.I.) dribble dribble bad shot

 

we can argue over what possition tmac plays or just agree that it's unacceptable to shoot this poorly when he is so gifted offensively.

 

I have always respected everything he has said as a commentator. But this statement is blasphemy. Because they ran Cleveland out the building. Isn't that the same team that couldn't score 20 in a quarter against us. C'mon Bill, I'm very disappointed. Our opp fg% is the lowest, and us playing a slower, grind it out game offensively has nothing to do with them shooting barely 40%. That "Houston plays a slow game" excuse is too lame, just give us credit where it's due.

 

Bill seems to be more obsessed with the Rockets trying to break into the "upper echelon" of WC teams than the Rockets are.

Also, people are touting Utah so much right now... but they'll be the first ones to jump off the bandwagon if they ever get an injury, or start slacking off in their play.

 

pushoff?

 

First and only good comment by Bill so far in the game. He just mentioned how the Lakers and the Rockets are similar in that they both have 'erratic' PGs who are not consistent enough with their production, and that's usually the 'wild card' for both teams.

AI just pushed off on Rafer there, no call...

I would like to see our guards attack the basket right now, we're not taking the ball inside at all.

Just a lazy game for us...I don't like our energy at all.

 

Hey Mr. Clutch, as for this game, TMAC is nothing better that Rafer.
We all know Rafer and Hayes are not qualified playoff players.
So my real concern is TMAC.
