BTW...regarding Swift.... I haven't been able to see all of the last two games, but why hasn't he been playing much?? I would have thought after the game he had against Minnesota he'd get somemore PT. I know he's inconsistent, but you gotta reward a guy who's getting it done. Did I miss something, or was he really bad against Miami??
May I be the latest one to tell you box scores dont tell the whole story. Juwan Howard doesn't help teams win ballgames. If he did, we wouldn't be 0 for whatever when T-Mac doesn't finish a game. Cmon, he misses wide open threes all the time, especially after good ball movement. Huh? Are you serious? One of the leading thread subjects these days is that Alston is inconsistent. and I expect my starting point guard to hit threes, and I strongly disagree that the Rockets weren't "looking for that" out of Alston.
The hilarious thing is, if we had won the game tonight by one point, there would be six threads started about how now that Yao's back, we're in the playoffs for sure! Maybe the finals! You guys are so fickle. Give it atleast..I dunno...TWO games with Yao back before you declare the season over..haha..
you might be right but loses like this shows the true assessment of the team. not the WE ARE GOING TO THE FINALS after we beat bobcats (for the first time) bulls and bucks.
This is the most disappointing NBA season I've ever witnessed. We suck huge dunky balls! Now we can no longer blame injuries. We simply suck, plain and simple.
What the hell? T-mac is shooting 42% from the field that is ridiculous. I mean last year in a "good" year, he shot 43%. This guy needs to take better shots. He shot 45% in orlando, and so why does his shooting percentage go down once hes finally got a decent team and a big man down low. Hopefully once hes taken care of back spasms drive in a lil to get higher % shots. Also, Kobe never shot as low as 42% ever except for his rookie year. Not last year, not this year. T-mac needs to get it together and start hitting his shots at 45% like he did in the orlando years.
I start to think maybe this team is worse than the orlando team during Tmac's last two years there. Maybe it is due to injuries, whatever the reasons, same result.
It is official tanking time! Tmac needs to practice his jumpers. With his ability to jump over anyone at will, if only he could get his shoting consistent. He is missing a lot open shots. I know the injury must have some effect on it, but it is not like he couldn't get hot for moments in any game! Kobe, LBJ, and Wade all have worked on and improved their jumpers significantly. It is time Tmac work on his. He can start with his FT shooting. Yao needs to get in shape, and just be aggressive. While the refs are going to call his offensive fouls anyway, he might as well play hard. Maybe only after he knocks 5 guys into coma, will the refs give him some respect. Look for a trade to unload Swift and Deke. Darn, I wish we had landed Artest.
Post tombstone, the Astros played .634 ball. If the Rockets do the same the rest of the way, they won't get to 40 wins.
I don't know which is worse... People like EDC or Rockets03 who start this garbage. Or people like me who take time from their life to read and reply to this garbage. I am leaning towards myself. I should know better.
yes were are no good , but we aren't out. with yao back to team up with Tmac we can and SHOULD go on a win streak right into the all-star game. I wish the Kings never got Artest...that way they could rebuild and trade Bibby to us.....wishful thinking
