ClutchFans Game Thread: Spurs @ Rockets 11/29/2008

Exactly what it feels like.

 

he actually was aggressive when he got hacked that last play. it was clear he was fouled as he was going up. i don't know how you can be more aggressive when you're going up for a shot and getting the ball jarred from your grasp when you get hacked.

 

Yao's got to learn how to sell the foul. He's got to make it totally obvious to everybody. If somebody's holding his arm down he's got to lift and carry the b*stard up with him. Instead he just flings his arms out.

Also, more dunks. The refs see the dunks and assume you're balling.

 

that wasn't tick tack foul. he got ****ing hammered on the forearm. how does that have anything to do with being aggressive? last time i checked, if you touch someone's arm during a jump shot, doesn't matter how hard you touch, it's still a foul. jump shot is not aggressive.

 

Do any of you guys even watch NBA games? The teams are so good they ALWAYS make a run. This isnt a video game like you're used to playing.

 

matt bonner? who the **** is matt bonner? we cant guard someone named matt bonner?

yao and ron gotta have good 2nd halfs.

 

Why isn't Yao taking any shots? He has to realize when the team is struggling and take charge on offense.

 

they blew another huge lead thanks to adelman's crappy subbing.

 

hopefully we can come out with the same energy that we started out the first with

 

hey douchebag, the lead was blown to 5 WITH YAO.

the lead is reduced to 5 BECAUSE we started playing yao-ball again. ALl spurs have to do is to front him and deny him the ball, the shot clock goes to single digit and we jack up a bad shot. That's what happens every time a big lead is blown.

 

Lakers play a motion offense too--the triangle.

 

exactly.

 

you can probably count on one hand the amount of times the spurs have been put away in the first half of a game when their big three are playing. it doesn't happen.

the rockets were playing extremely well but they cooled off and the spurs warmed up. we're not playing the freaking bobcats. we'll adjust and hopefully build the lead back up.

it doesn't mean that running the offense through yao doesn't work. idiots.

 

we were 3-3 from 3 point range.. then we missed 7 straight

 

hey you douchebag, why don't you watch more NBA games?

 

Terrible thing is that they were all good 3's--wide open, coming off of penetration to the paint after the defense collapsed.

 

I saw the play. Yes, Bowen fouled him, but don't assume that flailing your arms will earn you a foul, be a little more hardened to contact and try to throw it up instead of throwing it out (let's be honest, Bowen did not throw his arm down that hard).

 

umm, they are the SECOND unit. we have starters and stars on our a team for a reason. the second unit did their part, you don't play them for the entire second quarter.

wow.

 

Law of averages.

Can't really expect the Rockets to shoot 60% for the game...its just that SA got hot and hit everything including getting the calls.

 

You are an idiot.
