    I didn't the game at all but I saw that he made 4 or 5 successful drives to the baskets and 2-3 three points. Von Wafer isn't much of a defender but he plays with heart. He needs more minutes and in every game.

    That's not the point. He played all out, with energy. Something this board isn't used to seeing from the SG position this year.

    Start this guy,I really love his play of late.Unlike T-crap,he did give a damn what's gonna happen,give a damn the game we played tonight,even it's in the final garbage period of it.

    This is the ugliest game ever I'v ever ever ever watched because I ain't seen no heart,no determination,no strategy,nuff in effect and the attitude?damn,T-Crap is affecting the whole team.

    P.S. I was about to post in the game thread just right before the tipoff,at that moment I had a sinking feeling that we were gonna be blown out,well,it turned out to be fairly real,but it hurt deep down in my heart.

    Heartbreaking game. :(

    Please give the most athletic person on our team more playing time, he will make mistakes but will get better.

    The Hawks are an athletic team. Having an athletic player of our own in the lineup would help.

    Western Conference Power House, the diminutive Houston Rockets Basketball Team, once considered Contenders for the 2009 World Championships, has succumbed to the lowly Toronto Raptors. In fact they were crushed by the determined Raptors 94pts to 73 pts.

    The Rockets played with heart, so much so that they slightly raised their interest in the game to just above gutless. Their Coach, once great Coach Adelman of the famed Sacrament offence, was content to see that the Rockets play a complete game without an organized play. In fact they performed the Sacrament offence and defense as though they were Vlade Devac and Chris Webber to a tee (Retired of course!).

    Content in his seat, along with the other emotion less assistant coaches he was witness to a showing by his team, that there is something deeply wrong about the team and its play. By the end of this Road Trip possibly General Manager, Morey the Wizard, might be tempted to turn over the reigns to Tom Thibodeau, who is about the only Coach who could turn things around in the second half of the season.
    This team can’t play the Sacramento game and it almost can’t do anything by playing its injured players’
    This team will go nowhere without a game plan that includes all the talented players, a new Floor General and a Back up athletic Center are desperately needed, Mutombo is incapable of being this person.
    If Von Wafer had continued to play his role of bench warmer we would have lost this game by more than 35points :p

    Rick's decision to keep Von Wafer on the bench these past few games just looks indefensible. Is showcasing Luther Head for a trade really helping anything?

    What more does Wafer have to do to get playing time? He should get some PT off the bench every game.
