    Well all the Maurice lovers were going wild over his last game against seattle. Tonight the man didnt do quite as well, he played as expected. 1 point , 4 rebounds! Loved it didnt you?

    Only thing he did nice was that one block and that was only his 11th block of the year.

    Mo bashers, tonight lets not go crazy on him since the rockets won. [​IMG]

    MO SUCKS! GO WEBBER!

    I called it in the chat! It's all Mo's fault! It doesn't matter how he plays good defense. It doesn't matter that if he got a decent amount of minutes he would have had 7 or 8 boards. Or that he's been sick lately, and was off with his shooting touch. Nope, that doesn't matter. Doesn't matter that KT shot 30% again. Doesn't matter that Shandon played a lot and scored 3 again. Doesn't matter that Walt shot 3-12. Nope, just time to disregard all of that AGAIn and bash Mo again. This is pathetic.

    Maurice doesnt show any heart when he plays. He doesnt have confidence for his shot and he thinks the ball is suppose to come to him. Learn from KT, GO AFTER THE BALL!

    I see as much or more heart from Mo than KT. Mo is always making an effort on the floor to get to the ball. He's giving 110% every night.

    let's see Kt = 30% . . . Moe = 0%
    KT = 12 boards / / / Moe = 4 boards

    I agree that some posters are being harsh on a Rocket player....but bringing up how bad somebody else on the team sucks doesnt make Mo suck any less.

    Cat,

    You know what is pathetic? Your defense of the defenesless.

    Mo had roughly the same number of minutes, and he did not shoot 30%...no..no..no...he shot ZERO percent...ZERO..and had only 4 boards.

    I did like his aggressivness, but right now KT is playing better, not shooting better, but showing more heart and playing with passion.

    I am willing to give MO some time, but man, he has to earn his minutes, not just get them handed to him.

    It is an old concept, if you play well, you play, if you don't ...grab some pine bub !!

    I dont know what game your watching but Maurice doesnt show heart in his game. His shots he really needs to work on, he misses them really badly. His rebounding I dont think he can fix it unless he learns that he has to go after the ball. He is inconsistent. Thats what they should call him.

    I bring up those other players because everyone here blames and bashes JUST Mo when things go wrong, never anyone else, even though they are just as responsible. Just as several players disappointed tonight, none of the others are brought up and bashed. Just Mo. Again. It gets old.

    The Cat,

    I don't think anyone should be bashed after a win, and Mo took it strong to the hole.

    He just did not finish well, of course neither did KT, but KT did have 12 boards, and showed tons of hustle.

    If Mo showed the same fire as KT, no one would be upset with him.

    Perhaps it is that people see his potential, and are watching him waste it.

    Mo is playing better than KT right now, and IMO he has earned the right to play 35 minutes a game. If I was Rudy I'd play him that. Dadakota- go look at Mo and KT's percentage for the SEASON. You know how you would get if Mo did better than KT on the glass one game and then I said Mo was a better rebounder? Same with the FG%. Mo had a bad shooting game, but he doesn't have a history of it. KT does. Check the numbers.

    CAT! Why do you back Maurice every game? He doesnt play up to his potential. He is very inconsistent. His rebounding skills suck!

    Is Bullard hot or what? Williams is weaving out of his slump. Mobley was stroking mid-range jumpers and he hit the boards with Mo Taylor vigour.

    Damn, but Francis was just show-stopping tonight. Wheres Dickey Vitale when you need him?

    Cat,

    I agree that KT is shooting AWFUL this year, but we really don't need too much scoring at the PF spot, with Dream, Cat and Francis, and Walt etc..etc..

    What KT does is rebound better, and play better D.

    I think you have to earn your minutes...Mo has not earned his...and just for the record.

    Mo is shooting 44% and KT is shooting 39%

    KT is averaging 1 more board in 3 less minutes, and Mo IS getting more shots..he has over 80 more shots then KT.

    Rudy WANTS him to succeed, but Mo has to take the ball and run with it.
