Fakers @ Rockettes Game Thread 3/16

[Flopper]

Man I love those fakers and their history....LOVE IT.

[DazedAndConfused]

I love the Jazz and their stunning number of NBA championships. When was the last time you were in the Finals again?

[ludda]

So they allowed an average of 104 PPG. That's not good.

Besides the LA game, I'd say they sucked defensively every game.

97 Points is a good offensive game for SAS. 113 to Houston is ridiculous.

Your whole argument seems to be that the Mavs are not terrible defensively, but are average. I don't disagree. Problem is they have trouble defending good teams as the 104 ppg during the tough strech shows (as does last yr's playoffs and the 2006 playoffs).

Average to slightly above avg teams dont win championships. Very good to Great defensive teams do.

I think it's funny you mock Nash's D so much when your team's best player is Dirk Nowitzki. He's a 7 foot Steve Nash defensively, more or less.

I dont know why you'd mention Harris' inability to guard Wade given that the role for that should fall to your 2 guard or small forward. Is it Harris' fault that Stackhouse, Terry, and Howard are just not good enough to slow down Kobe/Tmac/Wade/Manu, etc?

How can you even write with a straight face about the Mavs being "average" defensively and then laud the Suns as a sleeper team when they also got worse defensively with Snaq and are comparable to the Denver Nuggets in their defensive abilities
But you are right in saying great defensive teams win championships, that's why the Mavs, Suns, Nuggets, Jazz, Hornets will not be sniffing a le this season.

No Michael = *

last time i checked jordan was around for the rockets 2nd championship.

[Purple & Gold]

@ Rockets fans trying to erase that second * by saying Jordan played at the end of the year after a 1 1/2 year layoff. Face it if Jordan would have never left Rockets would own 0 rings.

[The Franchise]

Please you cant even begin to compare the Rocket franchise to the storied Lakers. We've won in nearly every decade of the NBA, had two different dynasties, won 14 championships, been in half of all NBA Finals, and have the highest winning percentage of any NBA franchise. If you take away all the rings BOS won when there were like 10 teams in the league we are the best by far. Since 1970 we have been the most dominant franchise in the NBA.

This team loses the game he said was a slam dunk and then treats his wounds with Laker history. Your team lost get over it. If Bynum was healthy. If Gasol was healthy. If Bynum,Gasol,Yao,and Landry were healthy we would still piss down your throat so STFU PLEASE!!!!!! A healthy Rockets >>>>> than a healthy Lakers. Any way you slice it they are still our es.

[Purple & Gold]

A healthy Rockets >>>>> than a healthy Lakers.

Wrong. A healthy Lakers team >> a healthy Rockets team.

[Indazone]

I really do hope we meet the Lakers in the playoffs.

why?

[DazedAndConfused]

why?

He's a masochist. He enjoys the pain of seeing his team continually lose in the 1st round. For all the we talk about the Mavs choking, the Rockets have got to be worse. They have had the league's best C and a premier SG for the past half decade and haven't accomplished a damn thing.

[Dreamshake]

If a healthy Laker team is better than a healthy Rocket team why did a Rocket team minus 24, 10, 2 Yao Ming and Landry just beat up on a Laker team minus Gasol and Bynum. I KNOW your not going to try to equate Gasol and Bynum as being the equal of Yao and Landry. .... ....... ............... Or are you?

That might be true.

Basketball is not all about stats and PER and Hollinger statistics. Something you clearly don't understand. I've seen your posts over on LG and you have been flat out humiliated and exposed as the idiot you are.

You are exactly right about stats. And Gasol and Bynum together don't hold Yao's left testicle on the Basketball court combined. As I said, healthy to healthy Rockets >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Lakers.

[DazedAndConfused]

Too bad your own fans over at ClutchCity don't even agree with you.

[dirk4mvp]

This new Rocketfan/Lakerfan beef is in hiliarious.

[GuerillaBlack]

Laker fans are idiots. They think Battier will be on the Lakers squad next year, and the Rockets would take Odom:
