Post-Game Analysis: Rockets 100, Wizards 93 (VIDEO: AB sparks comeback)

Damn, Portland won. We're still out of the playoffs...for now

 

But how long can they last with Roy's gimp knees and discontent with Miller?

 

Hopefully Terrence adds to this team who is getting better with each game. I think he should get minor minutes at least to see what he can do in Buds place.

 

Utah loves messing with us..

 

they are still hangin there.

 

D-Will is amazing...

 

Just imagine this team with a true defensive center.I read on Hoopshype earlier today the Grizz might be moving Z Bo, Mayo, and Gasol soon.Lets go Morey bring the big "G" down to HTown.

 

Refs effed this game up so bad but we still win!!! :grin:

 

ghey. Miller made 7 clutch freethrows.

 

yeah but every win and loss counts in april.

 

damn. portland wins. but they go to denver tommorow and hopefully they should loose.

 

AB made the big shots when it counted even though he didn't shoot too well tonight on 5-15.

 

Terrible first 3 quarters. Very solid 4th quarter. The Wiz look like the Rox did for the first month of the season, good for 3 quarters but they don't have an identity or a go to player in the 4th quarter.

AB was bad in the first half, but put it all together in the 4th. Hill looked very solid offensively, but he is still slow to react on the defensive end. Hill just isn't consistent on the defensive end of the floor yet.

 

True but, maybe Utah loses the next 7 games and we continue this streak? So it's too hard to tell who this win really benefits, besides we've yet to play Utah or Portland I believe so it really doesn't mean much now.

 

Rox down 9, Scola sits, Shane comes in as Rox go small and the Rockets take off.

Coincidence?

Nope.

luis was having a bad day, but the wizards went pg, pg (combo), sg, sf, pf, so we went with the same thing.

 

Solid adjustment by Adelman in a game like this.

 

Maybe Rick figured out since he is a tad slower he is now better at PF position at times and also a great defender there? Small lineups with more offense covers him up better on offense and his defense helps the small lineup. Better useage of Shane has come lately. Thats what I think has happened lately.

 

They were playing Lewis at PF....good adjustment by Rick to match him with Shane.

Is anyone else glad we are through with this team? They are a nightmare matchup for the Rockets with their athletes all over the floor.

It's about matchups. Scola can play along with Battier,despite his defensive shortcomings when he doesn't have to go up against athletic long players.
Shane made adjustments on the offensive end tonight,by not camping out on the 3 point line. This is a good sign,hopefully he can maintain it.
