    One of the best wins of the year and this is the crap on this board? This deserves -5 stars. It also belongs in the game thread.

    To be fair, Sura plays with energy and he's starting to feed the post better. Those 2 shots were not really that bad, he was left open by Wolves' defense. He made a big 3 and grabbed a big rebound in OT.

    Is Scott Padgett a superstar? TMac passed to him in the closing seconds of two games and he nailed the game winning shots.

    By your logic Padgett should have just passed back to McGrady and let the clock run out

    You are digging a deeper hole for yourself. Quit now and go to sleep before it gets real ugly in here, son.

    Nobody is perfect, not even MJ. Everyone makes questionable plays at time, everyone on the team, even in tonight's great win. Be positive, it was a great road win, against a tough tough team who's led by MVP KG! All starters in double figures, 3 of them in double doubles,all you can think of is Sura must go? The guy brought a lot to the team, yes, he has questionable plays and he needs to adjust in the future? Must go?! Jesus Christ! Maybe Clutch needs to move those threads all together in a major soar crappy unpleasant negative complaining forum.

    BTW, can we stop the YOF label as well?

    Sura DOES know his role with the Rockets. It's one he obviously takes to heart and with more gusto than most all other NBA'ers. His role is to play the position asked of him. Hell, everyone knows he is not a natural point guard, yet because we have no one else he (knowing his role) willing plays the point to the best of his abbilities on a ruined knee and with a broke finger. Seems like you could apperciate that.

    I get worried when anyone misses their shots especially in clutch situations but whoever is open should take the last shot. Elie,Horry,Kenny,Sam, Maxwell all did a great job in these situations as did Hakeem himself.
    I'm not saying Sura is as good as them but if he or any other role player has a good chance of making a big shot they must go for it.

    Glad they won, and I kind of agree that Sura shoots a bit too much.

    But, he has been nails this year.

    Actually, I think I'm gonna give this thread five stars. This keeps all the I-Hate-Sura complaints in this thread instead of ruining the game threads like the last couple of games.

    Cause anyone who disagrees with me is a Fake Rockets Fan. :rolleyes:

    I love Sura too, but could you lay off with the broad general statements and the insults?

    Scott Padgett is 0.468 3P shooter, while Sura is .274 3P shooter. I don't mind Scott takes jump shooter at clutch time.

    Don't mean to jump in but I have to agree with niquil here. I like veryone on this team equally and each one of them makes a bonehead play once in a while. It seems as thoug I can't say anything about Sura for fear that I might get labeled as a YOF.

    We all know that the thread starter was an idiot...probably the dumbest idiot of all time for starting a thread like this after a great win, but you should group him as one of YOFs because:

    1) He never said anything about Sura freezing out Yao.

    2) It would only further devalue Yao's fans, which will lead to a misconception that they don't care about the Rockets

    3) It instills fears in me, or people like me to speak out against Sura in the future. Which then lead to being labeled as YOf. Which then become an idiot .

    Unfortunately, your posts in this thread has shown that that's exactly what you think.
