ClutchFans Game Thread: Timberwolves @ Rockets 1/11/2008

ummm, that is why I said it is too bad he is hurt...

 

Hayes does the dirty work. He got 13 boards against the Knicks.

 

Because Landry can have his minutes, contract year, I would take a good draft pick for him.

 

Looks like Mike "Jack it Up" James is the cancer of this team. I noticed how he would try to set himself up for a 20 foot jumper off a pick instead of swinging the ball like he was the go 2 man.

 

Usually when were blowing teams out like this I tendo to change channels and watch something else but this time it was completely different. The way the offense is flowing and the way the players just carry themselves on the court and play the game the way it should be played just brought a smile to my face. Seeing Landry out there just showcasing his talent was a good treat to us fans who haven't seen much of him. Hopefully we can keep the streak going against NO because God knows we always seem to struggle against them.

 

only i can say is SORRY WOLF.

 

Read that post again. 13 boards against the KNICKS . 1 game in how many games this season.

mutombo
novak
snyder


and then you have:
james

and.... umm..... well:
francis

this team is D-E-E-P. i never thought we'd struggle as mightily as we did, but from the get-go i said it wouldn't surprise me if it took us 1/3-1/2 of the season to actually find our rhythm.... now i just pray to the lord almighty that tmac comes back ready and willing to adjust to the offensive flow this team has found.

 

As long as Adelman is our coach, and Bonzi plays at least subpar (having 7-10 FG nights, 10 + rebounds (darn near all offensive) Bonzi will not be traded. I like the way he has been playing lately (minus a few bad shots).

Great win for Rox to allow starters to rest. I really did not have that much of an opinion of C.Landry before this game, but I love him, now. What is up with McGrady being out another week? This is probably going to be one of those situations where the injured player does not come back until the team loses a game (fine by me, lol).

VIVA La New Orleans!!! If it is a home game, which I could easily check, then that phrase makes very little sense, but I still want to say it!!

 

Easy!
everyone shows!
that's a real team

 

Clyde Drexler certainly thinks that McGrady realizes that he needs to come in and adjust, not revert to the old way.

 

I kind of would have liked to see Mutombo a little. Just to keep him loose. What a professional (go figure, after 15 plus years) to be able to stay in good shape while playing a game almost once every 10 games or so. I love him.

 

Man, was that fun to watch!

 

I dunno, with the salary that James has and the way he's been playing makes him pretty darn useless as a trade chip.

 

How Much does he make?

Rocket River

 

I agree wholeheartedly. The thing that I really did not like was the way he looked (body language) out on the court. I really like MJ, too. Scola wanted to give MJ a high five after Scola scored, and MJ almost ignored him (did he indeed give him the high five? I don't remember). I agree. He just needs to make some shots. I feel for him, though. Being played behind a rookie can not feel so great. His fault, though.

 

I really liked Landry though. The kid had some nice dunks.

 

The same team that beat the Suns and Hornets.

 

I like Mike James when he gets going. He still can be an important player for us if he can shake things off. Head failed in the playoffs last year and our outside shooting is weak. I just hope he will try to relax and not just rely on his shots if they aren't going down.If he can come around we will be in better shape.
