ClutchFans Game Thread: Timberwolves @ Rockets 11/28/2006

maybe Clutch will teach you about the "quality post counter" or whatever it is so you will stop peppering threads with multiple 1 line posts in a pathetic attempt to up your status

 

youre kiddin right? his shooting more 3's than larry bird.

 

not pathetic by all means

 

Your posts will forever stay at 558 because, to put it bluntly, they are all crap. Stop spamming the board with one liners just so you can up your rank, rookie. Have a nice day.

BTW, if your multi-colored sig doesn't scream "I'm gay and proud, look at me!", I don't know what does.

 

Mike James has a no trade clause, remember?

 

yao has increased his shooting % in recent 3 games

 

Let's aim our rockets at the suns.....

yao will light amare up badly...

 

I don't feel good tomorrow.

1.T-mac injured

2. Not home game

3.Back to back

4.Sun is still strong.

5. Yao CAN NOT follow the speed with Sun

 

I hope our dynamic duo are not injured.

 

It was a great game, in crunch time Rafer had like 8 points straight at once, Yao with high percentage shooting, which was really great, and not to mention Shane Battier, with 5-5 3s, 5 straight! I like that one pump fake he had against Marko Jaric and just swished that stuff in.

OT: Being a rookie is crap, I wanna start making threads, I have had many interesting ideas so far, but I can't put it just cause im "new" to the board, I have actually been part of many different forums where I have thousands of posts, I am not some dumb newbie, that just posts stupid stuff here and there and make my posts look dirty, but enough whining, I can wait.

 

Actually, JVG had to play Rafer in the fourth because Luther was getting eaten up on D by Randy Foye, and he was sucking at the point until McGrady came back in to run the show. Rafe's shooting may have been horrid for most of the game, but he was playing great D -- first on James and then on Foye. He did two great things in the 4th -- he scored 7 straight points, while shutting down Randy Foye at the same time. That and Battier's clutch shots were the key to us sealing the win.

 

So, you are saying that Rafer was good for only 1/4 of a quarter, and that he had 7 assists, 3 steals, and 3 blocks in the final 3 minutes of the game?? I hate using stats to determine how well a player plays, but lets just do a little comparison between rafer and Tmac.

TMac 32 min. 4-14 fg. 0-2 3pt. 0-0 ft. 2 reb. 7 ast. 3 to. 0 stl. 0 blk. 8 pt.
Skip 38 min. 4-15 fg. 2-9 3pt. 3-4 ft. 3 reb. 7 ast. 2 to. 3 stl. 3 blk. 13 pt.

Skip put up numbers similar to Tmac yet people still get on Skip for underperforming, being a terrible pg, etc. Shouldn't we start getting on Tmac for underperforming?? I understand Tmac took a shot to the stomach, but he was able to come back and finish the game. I think Rafer's done a great job for us so far this year, and that people should stop dissing his game.

If you ask me, Skip played excellent defense tonight. He did get burned off the dribble a couple of times, but for the most part, he did an excellent job staying in front of his man. His shots were questionable tonight, but I know a couple of the shots he took were with the shot clock winding down. Skip played excellent defense the whole game, and he was extremely clutch down the stretch tonight. He and Battier were extremely big in that 4th quarter and we need both of them to play like that the rest of the season. Skip by far was the best pg in tonights game. He had a better game than Mike James, Marko Jaric, Luther Head, VSpan, and Troy Hudson. If you disagree, tell me which pg had a better game and explain why?

 

Who was Vspan guarding when he was on the court?

 

Did anyone notice that
Yao played 38:48 min tonight, almost the same as Rafer's 38:53. Our big fella needs a good rest for the game tomorrow.

 

I saw VSpan guarding Jaric

 

I think people *have* to get on Skip's case otherwise SamFisher will get off Mike James' jock long enough to terrorize and bully everyone else with his internet seniority because they dare to question whether MJ's 4 point performance was any good. Phew.

 

some people keep saying TMac is hurt. Anyone bothers to elaborate a little bit? Is it serious? Any word on Yao's limping? Thanks.

 

I wonder how Spanoulis would have fared guarding Foye. Spanoulis has the quickest feet on our team.

 

you dont mean, goat as Greatest Of All Time.or is it?

 

Head can only play SG, I don't know why JVG don't get that----Head playing PG is actually hurting us, he can never deliver the ball to Yao and he makes a tons of mistakes. However, Luther can really shoot the 3s. I like Bill much better than Head even he commits some TOs. Then again, Bill seems reluctant to shoot and isn't really shining at passing the ball...
