ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Pacers 3/27/2016

It's been too long since a players only meeting and it shows.

 

I miss Kevin McHale. Seriously.

I really have some beautiful memories when McHale is the coach.

Bingo! On top of all this still no sign of Goldilocks who can actually hit 3's and layups at a high percentage as well as create off the dribble...Montez riding the bench...all this makes sense somewhere in the Universe I suppose

 

and this is why Pops and some other coaches would've BENCHED a starter by now. No way Pops would tolerate a full season of lazy 1st/2nd period starts to games without a shake up in the roster/rotations

 

Wouldn't have made a difference. they're playing the same lazy ball since day 1.

 

Yeah the problem is we haven't changed much since Mchale.

 

Howard is the only one we can say he playing lazy ball.

Can we rest Howard for 2 games? He was sucking in recent games.

 

They changed over the offseason and haven't bothered to change back

 

I don't think the lazy is the issue.

I think coach is the main problem.

If we have McHale, I believe we can win this game.

 

DH12 needs more touches, give him the ball and let do his thing like he did in the playoffs.

 

Maybe we win with better coaching but it's still a fool's gold team

 

Lol. Still have people say this...

If you watch how Howard play on the court, you won't say this.

Howard is a lazy idiot. His goal tending every game driving me crazy.

Howard is done as garbage player now. Plus, he is -23 on the court.

 

Good coaches win close coming down to the wire games like this stupid game

 

Whatever, McHale is far better than JBB.

JBB make me feel hopeless...

 

Heck they barely made the inbound pass after 3 attempts at the end of the game..really?

 

JBB put Howard for offense when we are trailing 3pts in final 6s.

Rockets obvious wanted Harden to get that last shot. He was 4 of 11 on his 3s. Rest of Rockets went 3 of 22.

 

Ya think?

 

yea and he almost turned the ball over..not necessarily his fault as much as the coach having Howard in the game to start with allowing a potential mistake...ridiculous
