ClutchFans Game Thread: Cavaliers @ Rockets 11/9/2017

Last update I saw was Luc should be good to go

 

LeBron on his reaction to CP3 trade to Houston: "I didn't have much reaction to it. I speak to Chris every single day. Before it happened, he told me, so I already knew. So I didn't have a reaction to it."

 

Fify

 

The real question missed by the reporter is "What are your thoughts about Chris Paul as a Houston Rocket?"

That way he couldn't weasel out of giving a deeper more meaningful answer.

F/up question - Chris Paul has said he would like to retire as a Rocket (go with it) do you see yourself ever joining Chris Paul as an NBA teammate?

 

CP3 has a lot of connection to the Number 3. Gotta be the reason behind this cryptic Morey message.

 

Also this!

Lol - trolling LeBron for the Arthur meme!

 

This should be a fun one.

Hopefully, the Cavs continue with thieir historically bad defense and we can drop 150 on them.

Would love to see Harden drop another 50 pt, 10+ assist game.

 

James Harden on encouraging his teammates to shoot: "I tell them every game. There's several shots a game where they pass it up cause 'I just checked in the game' or 'I don't know if its a good shot'. Yeah its a good shot. Shoot it."

 

LeBron talks to Chris "every single day?" Wow. I knew they were friends, but I have close friends I've known a very long time that I don't talk to nearly as often. Food for thought for the Banana Boat meme.

 

Agreed. Go to the rim early, love and Frye ain't stopping us.

That's the happiest I've seen Harden look in a interview in a long time.

He must have seen the Cavs defensive numbers

 

YEAH BABY!!!!

 

Have to win tonight to keep pace with that machine from California.

 

Damn...Lebron-CP connection, Morey tweet, now this Rockets instagram post...and if you guys remember those rocket emotes Lebron used in few tweets he posted last summer...eh.

 

don’t even need gematria for this

 

I haven't had much interest in the Banana Boat thing, but right now, the Cavs would be shut out of the playoffs. Way too early, of course, and maybe they'll turn things around. Still, this is definitely fuel for speculation. I can imagine Daryl cackling in a tower, thunder rumbling, lightning flashing, rubbing his hands with glee at the thought of luring LeBron to Houston to play with one of his best friends, and a top 3 player in Harden. Crazy!

 

No thanks.

 

Can't wait for tonight!

 

CP3 going to be lobbying hard. Lonzo is looking like a bust that can't shoot and Paul George doesn't look like that second star that'll help Lebron challenge the Warriors. If Lebron still cares about winning, we make the most sense. Either us or a couple of up and coming teams in the weak East. He and Paul George could easily go to Philly and just stomp that conference.
