lack of PT for brooks and novak not only baffling, will hurt us come playoff time. I dont understand the rationale why now they arent getting 5-10 mins to provide a good spark off the bench. Im not sure how we pulled out 108 points today, but our offense doesnt flow well at all.
Warriors down 2 with 3.9 seconds left... Baron has 2 FTs coming... Makes the first... Makes the second... Tie game... looks like OT. Lakers have a few seconds left though. You know what that means.
Lakers are gonna win. Looks like Fisher pulled one over on the ref and forced an offensive foul to be called on Ellis. I hate that kind of crap. Regardless, we increase our lead on GS. Not bad.
We had a good game offensively. But we need to be hitting the freethrows like we did tonight (78.6%) every night. I was also happy to see Chuck scoring those simple inside baskets. On the Defensive side, I don't want us allowing that many points. Cause when we start playing the playoff contending teams, we won't be scoring 108, so that means our defense should step up. Tracy could have played better but I'm liking the way he distributes the ball when he knows he's having an off game. This shows he's not just into stats. I hate how people blame T-Mac for every thing wrong that happens. People have been on him always. I mean what's the poor guy to do? Everybody will have bad games, or even a bad strech of games. During the Dallas series a few years back, people blamed it on him when he was playing amazing. During the 22 game streak, people said they loved how he was involving his teammates. When the streak ended they said he was being too passive. Well what do people want??? But anyways, I hope we can pick up the slack on the defensive side like I said previously, we're going to need that come playoffs.
That was grat, at least we were agressive, T-Mac was attacking and what's more he was making those free throws. Why we won only by 8? Again no defense. Salmins, Garcia, etc were driving to the basket all night long and what's more they were getting easy layups. The defense was just so awful.
I think T-Mac looks like he is tired or hurting half because he is and half to show us he is trying .
At least we won. I was looking at the schedule and the Rockets have a 6 game road swing coming up even though most of the competition is less than stellar. Yikes!
A win is a win...no matter who the opponent is...That being said, we should have won this and its good to see RA get his 800th win...
That ankle completly slowed him down in the 1st half but hey he pretty much carried the team in the fourth. He had some nice asists and scored 8 points (3/4 FG and 2/2 FT)
Went to the game last night...nice win! One thing that really irritated me though was the couple of folks who decided to add their 2 cents during the national anthem. The anthem is not about our home team Houston Rockets, its about our HOME TEAM the United States of America. I say keep your mouths shut and show a little respect.
Adelman said much the same thing in the post game press conference. That they were sagging off their men a little too much because Chuck was doing a good job and keeping Artest in control. Because of that the rest of his teammates got more open looks than they should have.
