Hedo said the play was for Lewis. And it was very similar to the last play in the infamous Hou game.

Gotta love that no-call! It's ridiculous the kind of stuff that NBA refs overlook! That's basic basketball fundamentals.


Yep. IMO the NBA should suspend all 3 of those refs for missing that obvious walk, if not fired. If you miss something like that, then you shouldn't be an NBA ref.

Surf, I agree brother. After seeing seeing Billips hit those damned 40 foot 3's on us the last 2 years, it was nice to see Shard stab that bastard right in the heart.

Oh Surf, you may want to give Kerrs Winghouse wings a try, pretty good stuff. Try the blackened buffalo. Awesome.


They are good. I know Crawford really well. We played for Florida at the same time. Unfortunately I live in Melbourne and we dont have one close. BTW my opinion may not be worth much but the waitresses are much better looking at Kerrs also.

The walk I can live with, it was the pulling on jersey and arm by Dooling which wasn't called was more egregious imo. That happened just about when he caught the inbound pass.

I would like to see Rashard take a more agressive role in our offense also. He is starting to look like Turk did when he would defer to Hill.

Just my $.02

Not to mention with more professionalism.

Rashard is underpaid.

I've noticed in the past couple games that Rashard is attacking the basket more instead of posting up or launching 3's all the time. That's what we need. The versatile forward who can shoot 3's, post up and attack the basket. I think he's starting to feel more comfortable and we're gonna see a different Rashard Lewis. He's starting to show spurts of good defense too (see block on Rasheed, the steal to get the break away dunk)

As a matter of fact, it's not very similar, it's exactly the same :). Rockets played the best defense on it, too.

Same double screen (this time with Foyle instead of Howard) with shooters spread out. So that's 3 times times they drew up the same play on a last second shot that I can think of. Time to put it to rest and come up with something new LOL.

The first time this quote has been posted here?

Perhaps Rashard can prove this thought correct!
