ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Pacers 11/12/2017

I've thought this too.

Saves his health as well.

On the downside could run a bigger risk of hurting EGo.

But honestly, all this team needs to do is play the exact same way it does for 3.5 quarters. Then put the ball in CP3's hands and eradicate all those turnovers Harden has in crunch time.

This team is infinitely better with just that one small change.

 

He parted the pacers.

This team is a lot of fun to watch they remind me of another Houston team. They look like they have a lot of fun playing together and have really good chemistry.

 

I don’t see it as an option...u can’t tell a top 10 player like CP3 to come off the bench

 

Man I can almost swear I have photoshopped Harden as Moses.... I’ll try to find it...

 

ok sari will doo

 

jar jar?

 

Skillz in Biblical proportions

 

there you go

 

We're on pace to win 64 games after facing the Warriors, Cavs and Grizzlies x3 times.

36% of our games have been against top talent.

 

Only Harden can make Black look like a good player like he did in the 2014-2015 run. Harden is unreal

 

Where are the video highlights from this game?

 

A big clap for Ariza with 5 three pointers.

 

Man, that one handed dunk by Black was awesome! Props to him and the Beard. Love EG's range on his 3 point shot. Capela looking smooth out there too.

 

If Capela develops his offensive game appreciably, and maintains his shot blocking/ rebounding and FT's, then he will be worth giving the max.

Reason: For Edit, adding of missing word be in the sentence. The content of the message has not been changed.

 

I love these soccer playing centers... I vaguely recall another soccer playing center in Houston, hmmm.... "

Harde’s mystique must be some kind of crazy. From far away you see the beard and hear the haters talk.

What it must be like to guard him though, knowing what he does and still not being able to stop it. Up close he’s 6-6 230ish, strong as a truck, handles, shoots, sees the whole court, pops 3 from anywhere...that herkyjerk style, left handed...whatever you give he takes.

Not that nba players are in awe of him or afraid to guard anyone but seriously, I bet if it’s the first time a guy has to play against him it’s probably a shock to the system.

 

If he develops a handle beyond two dribbles when he's face up making a move, Whoa.

He got aggressive on the perimeter a couple times tonight, but couldn't dribble enough to create a shot.

Regardless, the current version is already damn good.
