People wonder why the Rockets rarely get talked about as title contenders this game is the reason why. Beaten by a Duncan-less Spurs team that lead the majority of the game is ridiculous.
Yao is deaf in one ear, he needs damn hand signals to get the proper plays plus you have to add the loudness of the crowd as well as the sound and voices of the other players on the court, plus by the time if he does hear the warning the ball is gone any ways.
tmac needs to stop settling for jumpers and 3's. yao needs to catch the ball in the post (not 14ft from the basket). and can we please get back on defense!
the spurs are just playing with more passion it seems, they challenge everything everywhere. i dont know why more teams dont do that. pop is a hell of a coach to almost beat us with out their best player.
Agreed. The Rockets are definitely a better when they are short handed or when there backs are against the wall. When they are favored or expected to win, they don't always play as hard or as smart as they should. You would think that anyone on this team would step up and follow T-mac's lead on one leg .......................
Passion, intensity, heart, and hustle will win you plenty of games in this league... most of the other teams try to get by on talent alone.
I would go nuts for the Spurs to, they're undermanned and showing hussle and heart, and the majority of the Rockets team is dogging it. What have the Rockets done to deserve praise today?
fact is yao plays light weight most of the time...and on that steal if he had a strong position, as in put yer damn elbows out instead of standing there like a statue with the ball away from your body, maybe just maybe you could out wrestle the thug who stloe yer ball..dammiot ! Quit meditating it's time for action jackson !
Well if all this is true then it clearly all falls on Yao..he needs to keep the ball up High if he knows guards always do that to him...
