ClutchFans Game Thread: Sonics @ Rockets 1/31/2007

Nobody lit him up, but he let some scrubs drive into the paint which created easy baskets for the Sonics

 

No joke, Yao decided to skip over the whole rehab thing and come off the bench to spot up for a three...you should have seen the pass T-Mac whipped to him, that's SportsCenter material right there...

 

lmfao. great find. looks like someones on crack

 

one good thing about not being able to get a good chinese stream for this game: Kevin Durant

 

bonzi played till end

 

hehe check out foxsports.com, it's still there. I don't have access to the video and I was like WTF??

Until that stretch in the 4th quarter, the whole team's defense was terrible. Not a good win, but it's a win. You can't have great focus and energy every game.

Next up, the Hornets on Saturday. Enjoy the home cooking Rockets. This is the sweet spot of our schedule.

 

He clearly is the MVP of the team. Don't get me wrong, Yao is a dominant inside scorer, but McGrady does it all, and without him this team was going nowhere. The way he just creates for his teammates, he has unreal court vision, he sees open guys everywhere and creates his own offense. Yao has to get position and have the ball passed to him, tmac can just come up the court and bomb on these teams or get his teammates easy shots.

we obviously need Yao, it shows against the Phoenixes and Dallases of the world, I just hope Yao doesn't steal tmacs thunder when he comes back

Look at the record with Tmac in / yao out. 12-4 or 13-4

Look at the record without tmac, it is like 10-32 or something.

 

All of the people who said T-Mac should be traded or that he doesn't have it in him anymore needs to own up. I remembered seeing 20+ pages of trade t-mac or that his back gone and that he would suck for the rest of his career...redicoulous!

 

whoo tmac does it once again. so great to have him back like this, im starting to forget the days when he was injured. and wats up wit nick collison, someone give him sterioids or something.

 

You have to admit it feels good to see Yao on the score board

 

Return of the O-fer, 5 for 13, TMac was fabulous, JVG will complain about the Rocket's poor defense at the press conference and will say the word, "unacceptable." Big scoring night for Hayes. I didn't think this one would be close, but it was.

 

That guy is amazing! He is T-Mac in KG's body. Forget about Oden, KD is the real deal!

36 points 9 assists 5 boards in 33 minutes. this guy is a flatout MVP candidate. probaly the best Swingman going around too.

 

IF Tracy is healthy, he's better than Yao, but that is a HUGE if. We still have 37 regular season games left for his back to go out again.

 

Does it really matter as long as the Rockets win?

 

off topic.. but holy $*@&$ KEVIN DURANT!!!!!

 

Hes been mentioned so many times on this board, probably even more than Oden. Do we have any shot getting him?

 

did you watch the game tonight????????????
rafer had a decent game, he had 5 shots with the buzzer going,under circumstances that he did not create.

it was not a "typical" bad rafer night
