ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Hornets 3/12/2016

This x100. Some posters here just hate life isn't it.

 

This places a ceiling on us . If the coaching staff hadn't needed James and Trevor to play 40 to beat teams like philly maybe they have some gas left in the tank .

 

His efficiency was outrageous. And he was hitting well contested shots.

 

yeah, I think you should watch more basketball. Kemba has been doing this all season, he is definitely an underrated star. Not for much longer I think, people are recognizing how good he is.

 

This! 1st period the starters were outta gas and never recovered

 

Please... He was above his season average and it took him limited shots and minutes to do it.

He sat most of the fourth

 

whatever dude. He's averaging 20-21 points a game, 26 tonight is not insane. Scoring 52 over the Jazz in January, that was more insane than tonight. But if you think 4 points over your season average is insane, then it's insane. Who am I to argue.

 

dang, the numbers are clear.

 

Man this suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucked.

 

How many games we won with the gray uniforms? Sleeves to me would affect the shooting.

 

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzxzzzzz

Somebody wake me up for the draft.

 

Kemba's been beasting all the way back to UConn. He won Most Outstanding Player of the Final Four (when it was last held in Houston) with the Huskies 2011 National Championship team. He's a definite winner, has the "clutch gene", and is coming into his own in the NBA.

 

Here's the truth. That's the game.
Forget the rebounding effort or other nonsense.

20% from 3?!
They actually took a few more than we did. And why NOT?
They were shooting 50%!!!! Batum, Walker, EVERYONE was killing us

They took a few more 3's than us, but made 10 MORE than we did.
The calculator says that = 30 points. Game, set, match.

Our bricklayers are killing us. (Yes, YOU James)
Time to give Goldilocks some PT and give him the green light.
He CAN'T be any worse than 20%. He's 40% career.
If we're going to continue to jack up 3's at an alarming rate, then
PLEASE let the 1 player that can consistently shoot them have
the lions' share. These bricklaying games are getting U-G-L-Y

 

James' shooting slump caught up with us. Is JB going to able to make adjustments or not?

 

The Rockets didn't bother to guard the 3 point line. The Hornets are one of the teams that shoots a lot of threes. It's like there was no scouting report done at all.

 

Bright side of this game, we saw how almost unstoppable the Beasly /Harden pick n roll was. Harden had multiple passes to Beasly for easy layups. Bickerstaff needs to make that the staple of the offense and just put shooters around them. Gouldlock, Ariza.

 

Also, Beasly only had 15 minutes. That's unacceptable. 15 points in 15 minutes is efficient. Beasly needs way more playing time.

 

You mean something more like 27 minutes to deliver 21 pts on 9-15 shooting?

 

This! Bring on Goldilocks!

 

Rox starters were gassed in the 1st period..game was lost right there in my opinion...oh well ...NEXT
