Let me get this straight. Coming into the game, the Rockets...
Had lost six in a row on the road.
Almost had no Artest
Had no Shane Battier
Had no Tracy McGrady, either
Still had Rafer Alston on the active roster
Were playing terrible defense, and Boston ...

In Boston!
Without Tracy!
Or Shane!
Hey! Paul Pierce... Ron Artest would like for you to suck his bawls !

The Match-ups:
Point Guard Alston - This year Rafer is at "career as a Rocket " lows pretty much across the board. So the guy we thought was bad is somehow worse. Seriously, anyone have something stronger than Advil? vs. Rondo - Who wants to bet that he will mind screw ...

Since McGrady "played" last night, we can assume he is not playing tonight against the Celtics. Correct?
Yes, "played" is in quotes for a reason ... because I don't care about his 9 assists and his 3 steals. Those are hollow stats to anyone who actually watched the game.
Okay, ...

If you haven't heard, we play the Boston
Celtics tonight. So to mark the occasion, Steve Weinman
of CelticsBlog was kind enough to chat with us about the current state of our two respective teams. Our answers can be found in Steve's ...
(Via Yahoo! Sports)
Summary: I was expecting some effort, intensity, and grit out of this Rockets team. It was sort of there in the first half. But when the second half began, we lost it. Unfortunately, we didn't recover until about midway through the fourth ...

This from an excerpt on the excellent " Ball Don't Lie " blog on Yahoo (BDL interviewing Jamal Crawford):
BDL: Finishing up ... I read that you're a "Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" fan. Crawford: (Smiles) Yeah, Will Smith. BDL: Is Coach Nelson the Uncle Phil of the NBA? Crawford: Ha! After ...

Rick Adelman is no longer to be confused for being a Coach Norman Dale look-a-like. No. Instead, he has a new name and fictional comparison. I give you:

The Match-ups:
Point Guard Alston - Rafer played a solid game in Atlanta, yet still was a key component in the Rockets losing in the end. That says all you need to know vs. Miller - Eats players like Rafer for breakfast, can't really hang with guys above him. Edge: 76ers ...

The Rockets better f--king win tonight at Philadelphia.
At least pay the 76ers back for last year's debacle . (Yes, I still blame you and Luther for that one, Rafer). Then again, it was that game in particular that motivated Yao Ming to come out and call his teammates " soft ...

Clippers Waive Two Players...But not Steve Novak!
Ah, yes. Finally some respect for the best shooter in the NBA. Paul Davis and Fred Jones? Screw 'em - Steve's staying in town. However, this is somewhat disappointing news, given that to re-acquire him, we would have to make a trade as ...

The Dream Shake evaluates Ron Artest through his
first 35 games as a Houston Rocket.
"It’s going to come down to Mac getting healthy, and then Mac’s got to kind of be more of a dog ," Ron Artest said. "Yao is definitely doing his part.

Thought I'd throw in my two cents on
#1 before "Bash T-Mac Week" comes to an end.
It's on a more general note - the 2009 NBA All-Star game. If the polls ended today, your very own Tracy McGrady would be starting for the Western ...
We all know that the current plan for
McGrady is to sit out every other game when
the team has back-to-backs (4 more to go in a row!). But even when T-Mac plays, he's been uninspiring. So, I submit the following... what do you think: ...
The Rockets are a mediocre basketball team. That's
the truth. And the truth hurts. Yes, I know
we played hard tonight... without Artest or Battier and with Von Wafer having cramping issues. Plus Tracy McGrady was a spectator for ...
The Match-ups:
Point Guard Alston - Please stop sucking completely in every way, please vs. Bibby - Will probably have his way with Rafer tonight Edge: Hawks
Shooting Guard McGrady - I know he's not actually playing, mostly because he's 29 and broken down. A horse ...

There's no way around it: last night's performance was terrible. We were waving white flags the minute we stepped onto the court. We were soft. Aside from Von Wafer, who I will get to later, there wasn't any effort, any intensity, or any focus on trying to win. It ...
