Crashing the boards well. Limiting 2nd chance points like all games is important. At least Newble is assisting there!
Lebron not getting involved early, not a good sign. Is there any team in the league with an uglier home court and home jerseys than the Rockets?
As soon as I say we are boarding well, they grab to offensive rebounds! Z needs to shoot it closer to the hole, but again he blocking some shots! Booz being Booz
Rockets up 18/16 after one...ugly James has just 2 assists Boozer has 6 and 10 already Z has 6 and 3 Yao has 2, 1, and 1 Mobley had 7
Z got the shooters roll the first jumper, but everything is rimming out since. Houston not shooting well at all. Cavs lucked out, they could easily be down 8-10 with the way they played. The teams around us in the playoff hunt are dropping like flies. The Cavs can do some serious damage in the next week if they keep things together.
ugly first for both teams, cavs need to find their game and a build a cushion, i thought houston was better than this, their offense is AWFUL, then again so is ours, i say we restructure newbles contract, taking special care to add a "no-shot" clause, his defense has been stellar thus far though (ive been hating on him a bit much so far this game, so i have to give him some credit). i would much like to see kapono soon, and for lebron to relax and go to the hoop, not throw up jordan fade aways that he still needs to work on. Knicks down 18 to the Suns in the 2nd...
Woah that was ugly!!! Boozer 10 boards already! Man, told you guys he likes playing thes type of power forwards! Need a shooter out there as Newble left his shot at Atlanta last year and didn't bother t bring it! NY getting smashed too. Results keep falling our way. Hope this does too.
While Cleveland is not sharp, they are lucky they weren't down by 10 points at the end of the 1st. Houston plays such a slow pace, they can make you fall asleep, suddenly explode and up the pace for a few possesions and then you realize you're down by a lot. Let's hope Cleveland stays focused. This game has an odd feel to it and players could drift in and out of the game.
WHERE IS KAPONO!! I think he at least deserved to be on the second string team...let's get it together boys!!
by the way...williams 0 for his last 15 and 2 for his last 23!! that is some kind of bull that needs to be taken care of e-will... This aggression will not stand!
if yao is gonna get little touch fouls like that called his way, im just gonna go insane. yeah not seeing kapono by now is making me quite unhappy. get a clue paul. i cant imagine lebron will sit much longer either. i get the feeling houston's shots are getting ready to start falling.
