I didn't see the game but I didn't miss a thing did I? With BJ and Defensive player of the year out (SB), you just know it was going to be a lost. You have Rockets big 3 (Yao, Tmac, SB) and with just Tmac, they wouldnt' be able to beat kansas! You have a team fighting to get into the playoffs at home against a very short handed team. The results are expected. If they looked bad, they also looked bad the 1st quarter agaisnt a much better team a couple nights ago but they came back and won walking away. Without Battier on C Anthony, Tmac got tired (remember it's mile high now) and with the only option not working, it was all over. With BJ out, you have RA doing more and he shouldn't right now since he is RA of old (not RA of the 22 game streak). On the bright side, Steve Novak had another 5 3pt game. Now if he becomes our 3 pt killer, then it's all for the better. Besides, Utah game is the one to win for HCA. That's always the case. The Rockets weren't going to end up #1 (that's homers talking) The Lakers or NO are going to do it. Right now, it's better to rest the players for the playoffs then to go all out for HCA. It's not going to be any good to have HCA and don't have Battier or Jackson to play in them, is it?
I don't know why people have a hard time understanding that. If the nuggets play to their ceiling and the rox with yao play to their ceiling on a neutral court, the rox lose a 7 game series. I can say that about every team 1-8 against the rox. The thing is that the rox play to their ceiling more than other teams because they have too. Just like against the jazz. If the rox play their best and the jazz play their best, the jazz would win because they just have more talent than the rox. Its a tough pill to swallow, but its the truth. Sometimes the truth hurts.
WTH are you talking about get outta here with your non-sense...thats all I gotta say about that...actually last thing not the dumbest comment but its in the area of the dumbest posts I've seen so far. Anyone else get a weird vibe from this game that it was staged?
