Finally, we showed our focus, determination, and heart tonight. The defining moment was when Rafer jumped out of bounds to keep the ball in. I wonder where our focus, determination, and heart was in game 3 and 4? Oh well, at least we get one more home game. I hope the Rockets show this type of fighting spirit in the remaining games. We need everything we can get against Utah because IMO, Utah showed the same focus, determination, and heart against us tonight, pushing us all the way to the final seconds on home court. Rocket Zoom
I saw a team that refused to lose. I saw McGrady drive to the basket. I saw our 3s swish one after another. That's how we need to play every freaking game.
I saw the nails from both of my hands get bitten off right before my eyes. Now I hit the keyboard with bloody stumps. The win is so worth it, though.
Nice to actually see the positive post but seriously ask yourselves.... If Chuck Hayes had been called for a blocking foul rather than recieving the charge and we lose the game would this thread have been started??? (not calling you out personally Rocket Zoom but rather all the others out there who talk so much sh*t about our team and then embrace them after the win.)
actually we were not mad about the lose, but the team's mental stuff, today i saw their fight, their faith to a win. that is the most impotant thing, that is what we are talking about. hope rox will keep rolling like this.
Yep. I definately got that "no way we are going to lose" mentality in the whole team, and specifically Tmac tonight. Good to have you back, Tracy.
I think that ref would like to go home and feel safe tonite. That was one of those "it could go either way calls" and that's where home cooking comes in(unless it's D-Whistle or Jerk Nowheretobeseenski). If we were in Utah it would've been called a blocking foul for the same reason.
I saw lady of luck smiled at Rockets. we were trailing most of the time, just barely made it ahead in the very last end. same old story, like game 1 and 2. when we go back to Utah , it would be same like game 3 and 4.
Man, if Rockets should make it to te finals, fans like us would not have any fingers left. Why not fried chicken?
All that you said and also McGrady started attacking the basket. If he plays the same way in Game 6 this thing will be sealed up!!
I think we are loose going into game 6 and hopefully play as such. I look for Luther and Juwan to step up and give us buckets. Juwan was the truth tonite. Hopefully, he can continue, which will loosen up the lane for Tmac. The Tmac and Juwan pick and roll is more dangerous than Yao and Tmac if Juwan is hitting the 15 footer. Yao gets way too many charges.
Tonight I saw Juwan. Happy to see the guy who stepped up when Yao was out. I hope he can continue this.
I was really surprised about that. Jho was beyond awesome, and the points he scored were just so nicely done.
I see a Game 6 around the corner in 3 days that will negate this victory if we don't show up to play.
