ClutchFans Game Thread: Nuggets @ Rockets 12/13/2014

Another team another beat down.

 

If Dwight is still doubtful then I bet he is out. Especially since after this game the next time they play is on Wednesday so that's a long break for him to get better prepared for a return.

 

Pap is out for at least 7-9 more days.

 

Yeah, but I don't like his first game back after a month being in a mile high altitude. Even if he only goes for 15-20 minutes, run him out there in a home game.

 

We got this.

Spoiler

Hopefully

 

don't worry there will be plenty of home games in january for him to be slightly doubtful to mostly improbable for

 

Dwight really needs to come back, Harden needs a ****ing rest.

 

It would be amazing if we could get everyone healthy by January. Going full strength would be nice since we usually do poorly in the month of January for some damn reason

 

It has been good experience for the Rockets early on.

You have improved your bench via playing time.

It bodes well for later on.

You have to bring Harden's minutes down a bunch though.

I feel confident that Moti can be anchor a second team defense.

Wow. That was weird saying that.

 

Dwight better have a really good game or this forum will go Bananas. Last night's Performance by Harden will be a tough one to top.

 

Back to back against the same team is always tough. Let's get the first one at home.

 

Do we really have any credible source saying that Howard is going to play tomorrow night ???

 

not happening with T-Jones this season

 

McHale said that he expects Dwight to play tomorrow during his interview on 790.

 

He said expect him to be limited about 25 minutes. Pretty sure he'll play him 40+ minutes if it's a close game though.

 

Great DMo starts with Black and Dwight knocks Dorsey out of the rotation.

SWEET !

DD

 

Dwight's potential return is very welcome indeed. I hope he will focus on defense, rebounding, protecting the rim. H and H pick and role would be very nice too.

D-Mo must continue to get his touches, while Dwight is on the floor.

 

Dwerts Back. Finally Dwert

 

OK that is pretty huge, although of course he could participate in the pre game shoot around and then be a scratch 5 mins before the game just like the Laker game... Very much hoping that is not the case... With our upcoming schedule after these 2 nuggets games things are going to get very difficult to win night in and night out without DH because Harden just can't keep this pace up , no way, and the teams coming up are going to be incredibly steep challenges w/o some serious inside defensive and rebounding presence.

Anyone know if Canaan is back as well ?

 

I dunno. Dorsey and Black show tremendous toughness at times. Dorsey got healthier and was a physical powerhouse in the post. Shorter but much stronger and aggressive.
