<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">LeBron James is answering the questions about whether he can be a clutch player. In the process, he's provided a definitive response to the question of whether the Cleveland Cavaliers will make the playoffs. The Cavaliers could move within one victory of clinching their first postseason berth in eight years if James can get a win over the only NBA team he's never beaten, the Houston Rockets. Though considered among the league's top players, James often has been criticized for his inability to come up with big plays or shots when it mattered most. Those critics were quieted this week. James hit the first game-winning shot of his career with 0.9 seconds left in overtime of Cleveland's 120-118 victory over Charlotte on Wednesday. His pass to Flip Murray, a play James was forced to make as he was trapped by a swarming defense near midcourt, resulted in the game-tying 3-pointer with 0.4 seconds left in regulation. </div> Preview Courtesy of Yahoo Yao's started out 1-5. This could be a long game...
Down 26-23.. we are gonna lose again....... YES BABY!... cmon rockets lose the rest of ur games and lets get the highest pick we can possibly can.
Wow, Lebron James tied it up with a three-point play. Overtime. Yao shooting just 7-19 and has 5 fouls. If we go 11-2 the rest of the way we'd get to .500...I'm rooting for the miracle here.
There's no point of going to the playoffs nemore, we'll get killed by mavs or spurs..and be knocked out of the first round.. so i think houston needs to get a good first rounder, get t-mac healthy, and make a few trades, then we'll be super hot...and then i will want rockets to make the playoffs...bcoz then we will be able to beat teams like spurs/mavs/suns
are you serious....11-2...wow! I would have thought the number be like 13-0, but 11-2 is more reasonable with the teams with play at the beginning of April.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting virve119:</div><div class="quote_post">Yao lost that game for the Rockets with that stupid foul.</div> Well, he has won for the Rockets a lot more times.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Umair15:</div><div class="quote_post">We lost woo hoo.. GO CAVS!!.. hehe.. we need to get j.j. redick..!</div> more like ADAM MORRISON! or LEMARCUS ALDRIGE!
Adam Morrison, Ronnie Brewer, Rodney Carney, Shawne Williams all sound good. I don't know if we need a power forward to hold down the fort because we have Swift, but if we must, I'll go with Shelden Williams or LaMarcus Aldridge. If the Rockets community somehow picks Reddick, then I'm gonna become a Hawks fan overnight. I guess Morrison would be my best bet, if we had that option, or else, maybe Carney or Brewer.
Adam Morrison would be a great addition to the Rockets...i'm still rooting for them to beat the top teams though even though were going nowhere this year.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting finess101:</div><div class="quote_post">Adam Morrison would be a great addition to the Rockets...i'm still rooting for them to beat the top teams though even though were going nowhere this year.</div> Morrison wasn't a great shooter from the college 3-point line, he's slow, doesn't create for his teammates all that much, and he doesn't defend or rebound well. Plus, he would play the same position as McGrady (SF). How exactly would he be a good addition?
we r prolly gonna get a sf or sg.. so i was thinking maybe redick. morrison might go 1st, 2nd, or 3rd.
We should get a SG/SF swing player that has good size (6'5-6'7), is athletic, can handle the ball, and can defend. If he can shoot the ball well from the perimeter, that's a bonus. If not, he should just work hard on it in the offseason and in training camp. Redick is small, slow, and 1-dimensional (can only shoot). He'll be a good complimentary player, but we can't settle for him when we have a high draft pick.
