You are so correct. I don't care that Griffin is 1-11 or that Francis had a good game. The next game Griffin could be hitting all his shots and Francis could be off. What I care about is the fact that I got so damn frustrated every time they pulled that iso crap. I don't care if it works one time and Francis gets a great shot over five defenders. It's bull**** basketball and I'm sick of seeing it.
I agree with this somewhat, but which millionaire somehow forced Coach Cud to play Moochie 36 freaking minutes when he was 2-7 from the field with 2 assists and 4 to's. Not to mention his usual non-existant defense. What a waste of a position. Steve Fancy was controlling the ball anyway. Coach Cud also thought it was somehow beneficial to play Yao 4 minutes in the 2nd half. Some people say he was in foul trouble, but what difference does that make if he never puts him back in? Maybe all that chomping on his gum somehow interfered with his thought processes?
I believe that Rudy was partly to blame. He sat Steve too much in the 4th and called aweful plays. Rudy is not a good coach, in my opinion. Steve isn't the one who should be blamed.
This is all so true. All summer long we've all been so hyped/or opinionated about Ming coming in this year, and then we're told about the new "motion offense". Preseason games start up and it's like a whole new team is out there. Terrence Morris is popping shots left and right, Kenny's working spin moves as a small forward. Then the last few preseason games and last night, the Rockets are back to THE ISO BRO's. I would have rather watched us lose big time, working to implement the new offense. We've already lost plenty of games where Steve & Cuttino were the only offense. If we're going to lose, I want it to be as a team effort, and last night wasn't.
If your entire team has a poor shooting game, someone has to step up and take the game into different angle. Steve does look like a 2 last night, but he ditch that ball to many times, but none of those shots went to the bucket.
Steve was a 2 guard last night. Mooch started at point. Mooch was in at point for basically the whole game. Think before you post.
Taking into consideration the manner in which we lost, injuries can not be used as an exuse. The leaders of our team lost that game last night. Not Collier. Not Ming. Not even Griffin.
He had no requirement to play that line up, but there was a requirement for each player to lay in on the line out there. Either that starts or the Grizz may get Lebron!It could either be Rudy T's fault, or it could be the fact that the Rockets were so undermanned that they had to play 3 guards, including 2 PGs, against a big team that is a playoff team on the road. It could be that to.
Does anyone remember the Rockets commercial where that one guy is watching a Rockets game and getting pissed and then finally turns off the TV and says "im so sick of you guys" but then runs back into the room and says "im sorry, i didnt mean that"? Thats how alot of us felt last night!!!!! Im not ashed to admit that Ive broken a thing or two since 1981, especially during our championship era!!!
Pretty much. I can recall myself calling my best friend and saying "did you just see that!? did you just see that!?" Of course, Ive never played air guitar with a coat rock so.........
2 holes in the wall, thank you very much...Not sure if my house is going to make it through this year.
I used to break stuff, but then I decided instead of breaking stuff, I would fix stuff. So after a bad Rockets game, I'd break out my handy NBA video game, play as the Rockets vs. whoever they just lost to, and kick some @$$! It feels much better than breaking stuff you wish you hadn't broken.
