ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Blazers 5/2/2014 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 6)

Silly me for thinking with .9 seconds left they had it in the bag.

Only this McHale lead rockets team good leave a man wide open for three.

 

exactly same question on MCFAIL...
Totally don't understand this

 

spechless ....

 

i still can't move. oh well. life goes on.... the playoffs aren't the same without the rockets. guess all i can do now is root against the clips, spurs, and okc.

 

Wait...... Why were we guarding the inbounder?

 

Mchale losses us the game, ends our series.

Seriously, there was no way Parsons would be able to get over 2 screens chasing Lillard.

Put Parsons ball-side, leave Beverly to chase, but he switches with Parsons who now can get in the passing land forcing Lillard to catch further out.

There is no question about it, as bad as the refs were that is brutal coaching. First words should have been to switch on every screen.

Oh and why wouldn't Howard stay guarding the inbounds? Instantly makes that pass even harder.

If Morey is to persist with this bull**** he needs to bring in an assistant coach who is a details guy.

 

Stupid mchale, all you have to do is guarding the left side and the top, all my god, such a epic failure... and it's freaking lil'd, everybody knew it would be him!!!!!!

 

Asik's last foul really hurts now. Lin could have avoided that LMA close out.

@Thirty2zero: Damn.....

 

I didn't even get mad just grabbed the remote and pressed "power."

 

We're just really bad with last second defense. This has happened so many times throughout the season you'd think we'd learn by now teams will look to set double screens. Except for Mchale, I think we all knew the last play was going to be for Lilliard to shoot that!

 

If there is any good to this loss it's that I don't have to suffer through another game. My heart just couldn't take much more. So disappointed in the end to this season. If someone had told me the Rockets would be out of the playoffs in the first round a month ago I would have told them they were crazy. Wow.

 

Could you have at least given us an hr to heal? Asshat!

 

We need to consider changing the entire coaching team.

 

Look how slow footed Parsons is. Makes ZERO sense to have him defend the fastest player on the opposing team. McHale has always been in love with putting Parsons on PG's, it's never worked and it just ended the season for the Rockets.

The idiot has got to go. FIRE MCHALE.

 

speechless

 

Parsons played the whole second half

 

He shouldn't have been on him.

 

How do you not switch the picks in that situation. Parsons even switched to Lillard before the play so that Bev could get him on the pick.. wth happened?
