Trying to catch up... 

Post#1 » by ShaY » Fri Feb 6, 2009 11:39 am

I have been away from home for a week , so I missed both games against Chicago and Memphis.

It's killing me that I can't watch the games and know about the Rockets.

I will appreciate if someone can tell me pretty much what happened in those 2 games.

How did T-Mac comeback from the ankle injury?

Why Brooks didn't play against Memphis?

How the hell did we lose to Memphis?

And anything else that you guys think that is worthy to be noticed , please mods don't lock this I really want to catch up with our team and it's hard by reading the old threads.

Thanks in advance guys.

McGrady is moving better,but he still has no explosive lift.
Every team has some other team they struggle w/.(The Lakers can't beat Charlotte for example.) For the Rockets,they struggle against Memphis.(Last yr in one of first few games of season,Rox lost w/McGrady putting up 46!)
Specifically,against Memphis Brooks was out w/flu and his speed and playmaking was greatly missed. Artest was cold. Yao couldn't stay on court because of his "upset stomach". Mayo couldn't miss,and Rox D was horrid. Rockets made 4Q run to cut it to 6,then Barry and T-Mac had 3pt shots rattle out,Shane missed 2 open 3s(just after making 2),Grizz made a couple of shots and Rox started jacking up 3s to get back,missed and that was it.

If the Grizzles, Wizards or OKC, don't miss their shots, I don't care if you are BOS/LAL or whoever, you're not going to win the game. Memphis didn't miss much and when they did, our players weren't able to capitalize on our open shots. The team seemed sick and probably were fatigued due to the back-to-back.

It's never okay to lose, but when you lose to a bad team that plays well, it's excusable. There's not reason to worry b/c I expect us to win out until the Allstar break. If we lose-out then there would be a need for concern and i'll join in on this ranting
