    Couple of Notes:

    • Please post audio links here or communicate them in the chat room.
    • Please do not post play-by-play or "nice dunk" type posts in the game thread. The chat room will have live play-by-play among other discussions. This also helps relieve the burden on the BBS server.

    As "jeerome" will testify, if you troll the game thread, you will get tossed. Thank you to those who used the "Report This Post To a Moderator" function and PLEASE keep using it. It makes taking out problem users/posts much easier.

    Thanks,

    No changes against Sonics, another western team playing quick perimeter offense.

    So far, against western team, Rox only beat Suns and Clippers, two bottom team in the west. Rox lost all the others and no chance when they facing elite motion offense team like Mavs and Kings.

    Sonics play the same offense and they are shooting well.

    A loss, Rox finished the road trip with 1-4

    Sonics 96
    Rox 75

    Again, I have to emphasize that most of win Rox got are facing bottom eastern teams, they are in deep trouble right now.

    We lose tonight and we will be on a 3-game losing streak. For all of those who still think we are a great team should pray that we win tonight, and for those who think we still need some retooling, just hope they play like last night.

    Is it going to take another loss for JVG to realise what has been going on? He lied to himself about Franchise and Cat and now he might realse the size of the job at hand. How do you get a team with so many one on one players, with the score first mind set to play Team Basketball. I hope last night helped him alot!

    It will be a horrible win. We Win playing the Steve into 4 defenders for a circus shot with 2 seconds on the shot clock offense crap.

    Rox play well in the 1st qtr then it all goes downhill when Moochie comes in. The offense gets stagnant and the D is non-existent.

    91-73 Sonics Win :(

    I'm with you on the faith thing. At least the Sonics got their butts kicked worse by Utah than we did. They were hitting a lot of threes and still couldn't make it respectable.


    But we aren't coming off what you might call a positive momentum-building game...


    Rockets 35
    Sonics 31

    Sonics offense isn't as good as Kings. Rockets should win.

    That's pretty much what I also expect to happen. The thing is, afterwards Steve will think that that's the way to play.

    Tonight Rox will win because Cat ISOs all night and becomes hot and shoots lights out. Fans will be happy again, well, for 2 days. Then another 2 painful losses. Then the same pattern again and again.

    We never learn.
