ClutchFans Game Thread: Sonics @ Rockets 2/22/2005

That was BS!

Never seen a ref foul out a superstar on that kind of cheap call!

 

How did YAO foul out on an offensive foul? What did he do?

 

Well, tough game....if Rox win, it's huge, if lose, not a big deal. I think it clues in to CD how much Rox need a legitimate PG. Make a trade happen!!

 

JVG is going to call a set play. Has to be T-Mac coming off a screen for a three, forget the tie, T-Mac is due.

 

We can't win 'em all. There's a reason why Seattle is 36-15 and the Rockets are 32-22. LEt's get the Spurs!

 

GODD DAMNITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTt

 

T-MAC is scared.

 

Tough loss.

The refs bailed them out on our homecourt.

 

Did that really just happen???

 

I'm so angry right now I can't even see straight. Bad calls ruined this game for us and if I were Mo Taylor or Clarence Weatherspoon, I'd run out to court and slam one of those refs face first into the court.

And why on earth did Bowen take the final shot? Why was he even in the game?

 

The refs cost us this game. They totally screwed the Rockets. And Im not just talking about the Wesley loose ball foul.

Yao, Mutumbo, and Howard got fouled several times while they were collecting rebounds and the fcking refs swallowed the whistle.

 

That game was crap, thank you refs

 

There were some questionable calls, but remember the Sonics hit ONLY 3 or 4 3's...something like 4-25 from 3 point land and they STILL beat the Rockets. I think this was the best chance the Rockets could have hoped for. When they are hitting their shots we'd be BLOWN out of the building.

 

It would be easier to accept that loss if Yao hadn't have been fouled out on a BS call. I feel like we were robbed and that the outcome may have been different if Yao were on the court. He was having a great game.

 

**** the refs! This is the most crooked quarter in this month!

 

TMAC's last 2 plays (drive to hole) cost us this game.

 

somebody tell me how two of our freakin superstars can both be in foul trouble when we're playing the ffen game in our homecourt?

If they want to pick on our stars then fine one of them at maximum.

How can Ming and Mac both have 5 fouls and one of them get called an offensive foul in the 2 minute mark.

This game can totally take the wind out of our sails especially when we play a tough SA team tommorrrow. I wouln't be surprised if we get blown out tommorrow.

sux

 

Me got booted from the chat, Yao got booted from the game, bad omens. Idiot referees. Oh well.

Notice we get a grand total of 0 points out of the PG position.

 

Rox missed Sura's rebounding.

Every statistical category Rox beats Sonics except rebounding.

 

This loss falls squarely on the rebounding ... The number of extra chances the Sonics had was rediculous. We knew this was going to be a huge problem without Sura, and if he is going to be out long, something has to be done to address this.
