Don't Look Now but Rockets are on Fire

Uh that is rediculous. Memphis had a better record vs. Spurs last year and we kicked their tail. Spurs healthy they crush Houston.

Playoffs a whole nother story and McGrady has not exactly been a living legend as a winner and Rasho plays Yao as well as anyone.

They have had a nice streak but come on they are not a top 3 threat to the Spurs in west at all.

This Rocket team is built for the playoffs. They are the only team that has made the Spurs look to try to play up tempo, and not be dragged down into ugly ball, that Houston always make SA play.....I mean, I have fallen asleep every time SA plays Houston...it is horrible bball to have to watch. The Spurs have scored a total of 147 points in TWO games against Houston......that is UGLY.

Will see how they are built for the playoffs.

I am predicting a quick first round out for that team as 6th seed; probably go against Sonics = adios rockettes.

Some in Spurs fan.

I was speaking metaphorically.

And another thing...David Stern has bent over backwards to keep this kind of crap out of the game. The ratings were plummeting because of this boooooring bball. Stern changed the rules many times to try to get some excitement back into the NBA....do you like this that SA and Houston play?????

[Jimcs50]

I mean 147 total points for SA??? Comon, that is HORRIBLE basketball....anyway you look at it....just HORRIBLE.

Dont like it? Dont watch.


The last game between Houston and SA was oK with me.

Two great defensive teams facin off, thats all.

IT WAS NOT DEFENSE, IT WAS horrible horrible SHOOTING AND horrible horrible passing.

The Spurs shot 35% from the floor, shot 63% from the FT line and had 13 TOs....it was awful just awful......UGLY.

These two team set basketball back 100 yrs when they play each other.

David Stern cringes at the thought of these two teams meeting in the playoffs.

How many regular season games did SA take from Houston back in 93-94? All of them, I think. They then proceeded to punk our asses when it counted, because they were champions, and we weren't. TMac is not a champion, and probably never will be.

All playoff series are 7 games now. The Spurs will beat any WC team in a 7 game series. Make your Finals plans now, and beat the rush.

Charles Oakley said it best:
"In the playoffs, the lights get brighter, and the rims get smaller"

Add to that "TMac's ass puckers tighter". This guy wanted to ing quit/retire on his team last year when they started slowly. Turn up the pressure, and he folds like a cheap card table.

94 95 ex, but we got your point. Great post bro.

13 pts in 37 secs...yeah, he folded.

When has he had a good team to play with in the post season?

I would trade any Spur not named TD for him right now, and so would you.

And I love Manu too, but damn, at least I admit TMac is a top 5-6 player in this league.
