People, when they watch the Spurs, confuse wild histrionics and childish behavior for passion. Kenyon Martin or KJ aren't any more passionate about the game than Tim Duncan just because his fire burns inside.

Is this situation better or worse than Game 3? I can't tell.

Looks more like game 1 *which I guess is better*,except something just seems really off with the team as a whole,those last 5 seconds disturbed me.
 
The matchups in the east have been so dull compared to what the west has had to offer. Three of the four ECF series will more then likely be sweeps.
 
wow this is f-ing sad :lol

okur is allowed to push yao constantly with both arms

Yep.

Still the Rockets look like a sad team again,awful shooting,D has been ass in the 3rd and they just lack energy all around.

This isnt the Rockets team I saw all season.
 
:lol

Give the Jazz the series now after that play.

Holy shit that was sad as ****.


edit- Tmac isnt even close to Kobe....you hear me DM!

Nets/Raptors has been pretty fascinating, though that's mainly because I like both teams. But yeah, the others have been dogs with fleas...no Arenas and Butler simply destroyed the Wizards, while Wade playing at 50% has all but ****ed the Heat.

:lol @ Jazz/Rockets...Houston's getting embarassed almost as badly as Dallas did last night.
 
If Rockets lose this series, Van Gundy will be fired...

I wouldn't say he's not close but Kobe with this supporting cast would be in the Finals. All they have to do is play D while he and Yao score :D
 
**** this team. If we don't get a freakin point guard and some freakin competent bench players by next season...

MAN, just MAN. I've just about had it with the inconsistency of this team. Even during the season... the offense is so damn clunky.

These half court sets always make me want to pull my hair out...
 
Why isnt Yao fighting for position?! He gets 3ft from the block and stops...turn around and keep fighting until your deep. That trying to move them with your back BS aint gonna work obviously if the refs aint calling pushing off.
 
You win one of the two games in Utah and you're all but assured of getting passed the first round for once, T-Mac. Jazz will be confident going into game five.

he's probably worried about a 3second call (not like they call those). and besides, it's not like rafer knows how to do a proper post entry pass
 
Tmac ****ed this team over the moment he said its " all on him" He Konex'd himself and this team.

Tmac has mental problems when it comes to his skillz.

Are you surprised by that?

Out of the 8 playoff teams from the East, only Detroit and Chicago would definitely be in the West´s top 8. The rest of the teams would have to fight it out for the 6th and lower spots.

Shitty officiating is holding him back I bet.
 
I feel ashamed as a Houstonian and a Rockets fan.

This shit is pathetic. Terrible.

Rafer Alston can't guard a soul and our backup PG's are worth zero, John Lucas looked like trash in the limited amount of time he got to play, D Will is eating Alston alive. Rotations are slow everywhere on defensive.

You know it's bad WHEN THE COMMENTATORS have to talk about the other series in the playoffs for longer than a minute, because the game they're at is an ass whoopin' and isn't worth talking about.

WTF Houston?

Like I said when I called into our sports show down here, TMAC doesn't have that "it". When he DRIVES to the whole he is nearly unstoppable, but instead he pulls brick after brick. Drive to the basket good God.

:(
 
Man I dont mind losing,I just really hated the effort the Rockets have shown tonight and that starts with Tmac.

Depressing game cause I felt like they havent gone all out,shit Tmac wont even drive to the rim/shoot the ball anymore.
 
The only one who looked like they tried at all was Yao and refs always hold him back.

I wonder if Tmac will blame his back after this game :lol

Yes and no, I'm surprised the heat can't even compete, and I figured maybe the wizards and magic would win a game. It's just sad.

Man, if Houston loses this series after taking a 2-0 lead :lol
 
TMAC doesn't drive to the hole because of his back. He knows that if he gets hit when he goes in there it's over. That's what it is. If we had the TMAC of Orlando this series would be 3-0 Houston.

What's that gotta do with anything? It's simply a case of bad matchups. Dallas won 66 games and they've been absolutely embarassed by a team that needed to win seven straight in April just to get into the playoffs at .500.

The only series that hasn't had a blow out so far is San Antonio/Denver, and that's despite the Spurs being overwhelming favourites to advance from that series in easy fashion. Doesn't mean the Spurs aren't a great team or the Nuggets will pull off the upset...it's simply a case of two teams matching up well.
 
At this rate, I'll be joining the Warriors bandwagon soon. It feels so great, even when the Warriors lose. Because the Warriors rock no matter what.

Now imagine if Utah merged their roster with Houston.

PG - Deron Williams
SG - Tracy McGrady
SF - Shane Battier
PF - Carlos Boozer
C - Yao Ming

That's pretty weak dude. You can only jump on a bandwagon like that in the NCAA tournament.

But that series is like an NCAA atmosphere.

Don't worry, I still want the Rockets to pull this one out. If they don't win Game 5 though, series is over pretty much.

But say, what if the Warriors lose the series? Then what... who will I root for?

Identity crisis am here.

I´m just reminding him of how shitty the majority of East teams are. :D

The Warriors would be a higher seed if they didn´t have so many injuries. Even the Lakers one man show would probably be a 4 seed in the East. Now that´s bad! :lol

If Rockets and Warriors lose, you don't root for anybody. You root against teams.

the Warriors would probably be first in the East if they were healthy all season.

True dat.

I've only become recently interested in the Warriors as a result of that Warriors-Suns game on TNT. It's hard to find nationally televised Warriors games. The most consistent exposure I've gotten with regards to the Warriors are jobber and methodman going "JAX!"

However, I've always liked the Spurs and have followed them quite a bit throughout the season.

I guess that'll be my backup if all else fails me.

There's only one or two teams that I'll allow myself to hate. And I've made myself pretty clear on that.
 
I'm so jealous of the Jazz. Their PG is in his first playoff series and you don't even think about it. What a frikken stud...
