This game's all about Sessions vs. Wafer.

I know he ended last year pretty strong with some huge numbers, but damn. 44, 12 and 5 for Sessions, tonight. Holy ****.

the trend of the rocket: Great game then good game then good game then crap game.
we got a respond game - Great game against the T-wolves after the loss against Memphis
Tonight - expect a good game

Go Rox!

So the Bucks are without two of their best players (Redd and Bogut) and their starting point guard is out with a broken hand.

We are at full strength.

We are 31-20, they are 24-29.

This is the kind of game we could easily lose.

put it this way
this is another game we can put Artest at PF

No way we should lose this one.

No Ridnour, no Redd, no Bogut.

We at least will probably have everyone suited up.

Yao will kill the Bucks bigs if we give him the opportunity.

Artest can play some PF against CV

Let' see what Landry can do back home.

Lets go Rockets, only 3.5-4 games bck of 1st place in our division. gotta get these easy wins.

The Rockets and easy wins do not go together and I thought we all had learned that lesson by now but apparently not.

i actually like us at #6
facing possible Nuggets in the first round
we match up better against them
and possible of Spurs in the second round

Lets try to get the 3rd seed then. I'm ok playing against any one of Portland, Dallas, Denver, Phoenix.

with regards to the rockets
there is no such thing as easy.
the players have such mentality but we shouldn't! lmao!

YaoZaii · Post #14 » by **YaoZaii** » Mon Feb 9, 2009 4:11 pm

just a quicky question, how much do you guys think Artest will ask for in his next contract?

i'm not sure about phoenix. two big fella can be a really big problem for us.

for the bucks game, just need to win but we should be really careful against sessions. he is kinda good young player and has an amazing quickness.

anyway, go rockets go !

One of those games where our lack of defense will plague us. Back when we were good defensively we never lost on the roads to teams like this. When we lost we lost to teams that were just better than us. Now we lose to sub-500 teams on the road like its a regular thing for a team sitting 10 games over .500

All because we can't defend like we use too. I dunno what to expect tonight. But like everyone else here....I wouldn't be surprised if we lost

I'm curious to see Ramon Session play. How the hell does this guy gets 44/5/11.

He only gets to play when guys in front of him are hurt. When he does get the nod to start, he puts up massive numbers. Definitely a very strange case. He's a restricted free agent next year so i think he'll be one of those guys that Morey will keep an eye on.

YaoZaii · Post #19 » by **YaoZaii** » Tue Feb 10, 2009 12:12 am

is 10.5 m considered a max. contract?

I've never seen him play, or anything... I only see his beastly stat lines.
