First game of the season where everyone made a few mistakes, but their combined positives overcame it.
Now that we can't finish worse than 50%, maybe play the rookies more than 10 minutes (especially since they are playing well).
One game is not going to make a difference. I would rather try to pump up our record even more. It's all about making ourselves attractive to free agents now.
If KM could play like this all the time I would be a happy Rockets fan. Pumpfake, Pumpfake, Drive I can live with Hill should have played more.. I would have liked to see him play more than 9 mins he played great against Carl.. If he is in the Rockets long term plans why wouldn't Rick play him to add to his exp? Especially since we aren't playing for anything.. I'm starting to think we are just showcasing his talent so he can be traded..
great game, i cant wait til next season cause its "gon be off the chain!" also, i thought clyde didnt do road games? whats up with air bullard?
Great game by Martin in front of his fans. Great shot by the camera crew of a Rockets couple. The guy had a "34" jersey & the gal had a "22" jersey! As some one else already mentioned, a winning season by the Rockets without their 2 big stars. I'm soooo proud of this Rockets team!!! :grin:
This season was important in many ways. The thing that sticks out the most is that these Rockets learned they can win without their two superstars. Now is the question on whether Yao is able to return next season (does anybody really know???), and getting a couple of missing pieces. The future is bright for the Rockets.
Much better 2nd half defense. Kings scored same points in 2nd half as they scored in 1st quarter. Martin,Ariza,Lowry,Cbud,Jeffries all did great.
Martin is the quietest scorer ever, does not seem to take over games, he just scores equally in all quarters. This can be a positive and a negative, on one hand, you love the consistency, but on the other, he is not a finisher at the end of games.
Not me, he has peaked, IMO. I liked him but I think Hill will be better for us. Carl just doesn't play D that well or rebound that well, especially on defense. He goes hard on offense..but on D....not so much. I like what Hill brings....and IMO, he can get to Carl's scoring level with more defensive ability. DD
