Awful game. Had to respect that the Rockets never gave up, though, even after suffering through the worst half of the season and watching two guys go down (no homo). I was looking forward to watching Hill for the rest of the season! The injury bug just won't leave us alone.
I was surprised with Jeffries and Hill down that Andersen did not get any time. He must be buried UNDER the dog house. DD
Horrible offensive game. Nothing was easy. I'm actually disappointed with how the Rockets played today. Seemed like there was no urgency.
Wha? Any ways yea....I said I had a bad feeling about this one. Mainly because of the PG matchup and Brooks just isn't good enough to go against a top tier PG like Rose right now. The game turned out worse with all those sprain ankles...and wow Armstrong still didn't see the court.
our season is over at least to make playoffs, blazers, spurs, and thunder are not going to go on a major losing streak!! and rox are not going to beat thunder, lakers, or even memphis without a strong bench, we have no frontcourt!! batier, jeffries, and hill are all out!!! who will play backup pf and center armstrong?
Okay, 14th pick, whatever. The fact is, we're either going to be the best or 2nd best lottery team this season really regardless of how we play as we are not falling behind New Orleans or Chicago in the overall standings anytime soon. So there's no zero point in tanking for a good pick, so we might as well try to win games for just to end the season on a good note.
I know this is probably the worst night to say this, but I miss Landry. He would have helped us a lot tonight. The one thing I question is Martin's ability to play & score under pressure. In his 6 playoff games, the numbers are pretty bad. His stats are ....unusual...in the way he fills out the box score.
Bingo. Just play the games hard and well hustled, the rest will take care of itself. We are too good of a team to get an early lottery pick so we might as well enjoy whatever fight and victories we can get along the way.
rockets defense is go, all our key defenders battier, hill, jeffries, are all out and only ariza and undersized hayes and lory are good defenders, we are going to have to overplay hayes and martin and ariza!!! hope armstrong can play defense
I'm trying to remember the last time I was this angry at the other team's broadcasting crew and I just can't. Still livid, still pissed off, and I immediately erased the game after it was over on my big TV, which I never do (still have it on my other DVR, damn it). Why am I so pissed off? I watched the game on League Pass, the Chicago broadcasting idiots being who I was stuck with, and they did something unforgivable. Jordan Hill goes down grabbing his leg. He's still laying on the floor as they go to commercial. They return from commercial AND NEVER SAY A G**-DAMNED THING ABOUT IT! They go on babbling their bull ****, go to another commercial, still haven't said a word, and then, as an afterthought, mention that Hill was out with a sprained ankle. Until that moment, I didn't know what the injury was. It could have been his knee, it could have been anything. I was cussing at the TV, using language that would make a longshoreman blush. Hell, even the Jazz broadcasting crew would never do a thing like that. It would never occur to Bill, Clyde, and Bull to ignore an injury to another team's player in such a way. Yet they would never quit spitting into their microphones with their homer broadcasting crap. What a couple of ignorant ******* broadcasting bastards. Chicago can have them and I hope they choke on the meal.
I'm still not throwing in the towel until the numbers says 0 % chance. I couldn't give a damn about draft position. Morey gets great players regardless of the spot.
