jvg smartly put in a play meant for a 2 so there was no chance we could accidentally win the game. rafer knows we're stuck with him for a while so he may as well help the team get better next year.
Man at least we're not like the T-wolves, who are pathetically obviously trying to tank. They're showing NO pride right now and Madsen is just jacking up shots.
From this game we can tell that: A) When given playing time, Stro will produce (18 pts/5 rbs in 23 minutes) B) Chuck Hayes is the man. C) Lampe sucks. He couldn't even get playing time in the last game of the season
Even in the meaningless game, the rockets still cant defend 3s and the rockets still make enough 3s. What the hell is JVG still playing Rafer and Wesley more than 30minutes in this type of game??? Trying to break their legs??? JVG, you vicious evil capitalist!!!
Memphis looks like it's going to win. I agree Madsen taking 3 pointers makes no sense.I know this isn't in the right thread but considering our lottery positioning I thought it was all right to put it here.
Swift looked pretty dejected after missing that ugly key shot. I wonder if he was really disappointed or just too stupid to realize he just did his team a favor?
i think minny literally threw their game at the end. madsen has taken 5 3's in this game after taking zero all year and only 9 in his career. he of course has missed all of them (and is 1-12 overall). that is unexplainable. and now they just threw the ball out of bounds in the backcourt with no pressure. and they have been leaving brian cardinal wide open for 3's. you can't really top this.
that game has made me sick. madsen just threw it out of bounds and was like my bad. dude will get a bonus i guess.
Popovic is gonna get a phone call from George Karl, and they'll have a nice laugh at our expense. At least we still lost.
I'll say it again, some of you wish we were like the T-Wolves, but that is just pathetic. I would never wish us to play like that when fans are watching.
well to be honest i wish the rox would be playing there youngest players out there and not wesley and rafer at the end. the wolves though took it to a whole other level. it would be like us having mutumbo out there shooting 3s just stupid.
can stern just add a win to minny's total after the game they just played? i mean i know it went to double OT but minny couldn't have looked like they cared any less and they were playing around, letting madsen have 3's in overtime periods. it's one thing if it happens in the first quarter, but not in double OT. does minny even have a draft pick this year? i'm assuming they do.
Stern should take away minny's pick for fixing that game! Madsen had to have $ on that game. I demand an investigation. That is Redickulous!
stro has always had games like this, even times when he has played better, but those are minute when you look at the other games that he has had. When he doesn't do anything
interesting to hear everyone's accounts of the minny game. gotta hear about this tonight/tomorrow on espn/espn.com. minn has a pick this year if they're in the top 10...otherwise it goes to the clips, which is why they really need to tank. the chances are infinitely small and essentially zero, but it'd be so funny if 3 teams below the twolves won the lottery and knocked them out of the top 10..leaving htem w/no pick after tanking
