    well tmac has scored half of the rockets points, it shows how much effort he's puting in, if he made his layups we'd be closer aswell

    He didn't shut out the rest, themselves did. Actually Popovic tried his best to shut down Tmac.

    I cant stand Spurs whinging and b****ing the refs. They manipulate the refs to get calls to go there way. Cheats basically.

    I just have a really strong feeling T-Mac is gonna play in 3rd quarter like that one quarter he had against nuggets when he had 16 of 18 points.

    Haha, I love this board. One moment we're like "ROCKS SUK, FIRE THE TEAM." when we're down by 15, then we're cheering the team because they're "only" down by 12. :confused:

    Although Bonzi can play good ball Snyder is more useful to the this team because he cuts to the basket and moves more without the ball.
    When the rox move without the ball a lot they are pretty darn good, when they don't the stink pretty bad.

    My only complain will be that Head plays the backup pg and he should not be allowed to play the pg in the second half. I hope JVG plays VSpan instead just try it at least for 4 minutes.

    Agree. That is really disgusting to see Tim "cheater" Duncan and Manu "flopper" Gino whining like a w**** about the foul calls.

    We will lose: TMAC gets tired in the second half and a blow-out 3rd quarter. How sad..........

    There wasn't enough minutes for him, Bonzi, Head, T-mac, AND Battier all to play significantly enough to make an impact. When Bonzi is out, the solution is simpler.

    Let us see what changes JVG comes up with or will Popovich out coach him. I hope JVG comes up with a plan that will work.

    I said that after the edit...Pops is betting we're not going to hit our open 3's outside of TMac and so far his bet is paying off.

    How many times have we "shut" ourselves out this season? ie. come in the game half stepping with no energy, bad shots, poor shooting, stupid TO's, no ball awareness...

    Man Tmac really wants this game, u can tell. He has got to get someone from the starting lineup to help him. Snyder has been that guy from the bench, but we need a starter to help out

    Thanks for pointing that out, seems like a lot of posters have forgotten that this guy started for us, and he's seemingly being punished for getting injured.

    I am not asking that he starts again for us, I am just asking that he gets consistent opportunities to help bring some energy/hustle to this team and cause trouble for the opposition.

    All I ask is that if Bonzi is sucking JVG shouldn't hesitate for a second to give Snyder his minutes that particular game. If nothing else, Bonzi will now that he has competition and he might finally get his act together and play with some consistency.

    Ugly first half and we are lucky to be down only 12.

    If Rafer and Luther weren't playing like garbage the game would be close. Luther looks lost and totally out of it. After cleaning up against a no-defense team like the Nuggets, he is tentative and unsure of himself tonight. My 11 year old son could throw smarter/better passes. I almost hate it when Rafer hits an early 3 because he always shoots until he misses 3-4 in a row. Both Deke and Chuck may as well have stayed at home. Shane should be ashamed of himself for not taking a single shot in the half. JVG needs to "counsel" him during halftime.

    On the bright side, Snyder looks good. Neither Finley nor Manu can guard him. He needs to keep it up and someone else must step up in the 2nd half or 40 points from Tracy won't be nearly enough. The energy on defense is missing. If Manu's shot weren't off we would be down at least 20.
