Rockets vs Spurs 1/21/2012 7:00p Game Thread

Dont mind wins against other Texas teams and the Jazz but it is to late to tank. The East made sure about that

[Zubby]

Here is actual gametime transcription from the Rockets bench during one of the last timeouts:

McHale: "OK, you guys are looking great out there! We have a comfortable lead, but I just checked in on Mr. E and he seems too comfortable right now."

Lowry: "You want us to make this interesting, coach?"

McHale: "Yeah, why don't you let them tie it up and get it close. Let's try to take a few more years off of Mr. E's life."

Martin: "Do you think that we should throw the game, Coach? That should cause him some serious pain"

McHale: "No...we don't want to do that. Yes, our primary goal is to make sure that Mr. E's hair turns gray and he has heart issues at a young age; but let's not forget that we're also trying to piss off the fans that want us to tank."

Lowry: "Got it, Coach! Come on, fellas - let's go let the Spurs back in this!"



Don't ask me how I got it...

LOLZ...

McFail is the ****!

bench Martin play Dragic at the 2, dont play Bud... up next is completely moving Hill out the rotation!

i don't mean to tank. but we all know scola is not in our future plans. we are a young team, scola is 31 and has hit his ceiling. It's not like he can really help us accomplish much now. we should look to trade him because his value will eventually decrease. I'm about what and what with Martin. He is still a scorer and can be part of the future. We should only move him and we get something significant in return.

I am still for the trading of Martin and/or Scola.

This can not happen fast enough.....

I told everyone Martin's slow start was just a small sample size. Everyone in here was panicking and was ready to trade him for a sack of potatoes. Now he's a gangster.

Yeah I'm fine with moving Hill out of the rotation. How come 0 minutes for Terrence Williams? I wouldn't mind seeing him out there once in a while. Also Parsons offense has leveled off the past couple weeks. He's athletic, reasonably fast, plays good defense...but doesn't have a good shot or anything resembling a go to move. I'm not saying he won't get there at some point, but right now he's not that effective on offense. Let's get Thabeet in there for god sakes.

I'd like to see something like this...

PG - Lowry (34) Dragic (14)
SG - Martin (24) Lee (20) Dragic (4)
SF - Parsons (20) Budinger (16) Martin (12)
PF - Scola (34) Patterson (10) Parsons (4)
C - Dalembert (32) Patterson (10) Thabeet (6)

Yes I think Thabeet should get the occasional minutes against certain centers! I think he'd be better than Jordan Hill at the very least.

^^ Um.. I would still trade Martin for a sack of potatoes...

Martin & gangster, should never be used together in a sentence.
