For some reason I feel better about winning GAME 6 on Friday than winning GAME 7 on sunday reason is because of TMAC's playoff history and the pressure of him advancing We arnt expected to win GAME 6 but if we force a GAME 7 it will be ALL ON TMAC again ....... CAN HE FINALLY ADVANCE OUT OF THE 1st RD! I really hope he does but he has gone thur every possible GAME 7 situation almost. 03' Up 3-1 vs Detriot and LOST GAME 7 in DETRIOT 05' Won first 2 game in DALLAS ..... and LOST GAME 7 at HOME 07' Won first 2 game at HOME ..... and LOST GAME 7 at HOME
Maybe you're right. Still, I think talent-wise, we're definite underdogs in both series but we're closer this year than in '05.
this is a huge factor I think. When TMAC is playing on no expectations he owns. He is not a very good frontrunner.
the difference is we actually didn't have a bad start this season. What were we? 6-1 to start? Maybe that changes things in your proposed path to doom
that was also the year we had this gem of a quote: http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showpost.php?p=2086999&postcount=2
wow, when I look at this 05' roster I am so disheartened by it. Its just Yao and T-Mac, and the rest are just a bunch of benchwarmers or ****ty fringe NBA players who shouldn't even really be seeing anything but garbage minutes, and the old Mt Mutombo. Obviously on paper we weren't going to bea the Mavs back then. So glad our current squad is soooooo much better!!!!!!!!!
No, but we did finish the season 19-10 which is the score that the Texans Beat the cowboys with. coincidence?
Sometimes, late at night when I am in my bed, I miss the WBSS, aka the white boy super squad. Remember how they would run along shaking their hands like they were shooting dice after they made a three? JVG used to go a little crazy inside when they did it, but I laughed every time. Yao Ming David Wesley Tracy McGrady Scott Padgett - WBSS Bob Sura - WBSS Jon Barry - WBSS Mike James Ryan Bowen - denied entry to WBSS. Sucked booty, except defending Dirk. Moochie Norris Dikembe Mutombo
it was called the White Boy Power Squad WBPS get your facts straight son! Flyin' Ryan was a key contributer to that fearsome foursome too.
No joke, my 22 month old hears Deke start talking and starts saying Cookie Monster. Edit: Wrong Thread!~
Ryan freaking Bowen played alright in 05... I mean the rockets did won the first 2 games which he started... then Padgett started game 3(?) which he didn't provide any offense at all and sucked it up on the defensive end. I always wonder what would've happen if JVG sticked with the Bowen on Dirk right from the start strategy...
i feel much better about this game 6 than game 7 in both years past. we just blew the team out in game 5, and we have so much confidence. all the pressure is also on the Jazz. however, if we win game 6 i'll still be nervous about game 7.
Oh, That hurts my eyes....smh, its funny how blind we can be sometimes because I felt like we could have went to the finals that year....
