ClutchFans Game Thread: Raptors @ Rockets 11/11/2013

Inefficiency a new level!

 

Expect to have 10-min highlights from Blaiyan tonight! Sweet!

 

Is EVERYONE OK IN HERE ????.... lol im sure people were losing there minds here on clutchfans too

 

props to tjones!

 

where is all this howard practiced ft with Calvin Murphy bs during the off season? dude needs to be a 50% clip or he is gonna cost us games

 

Lin - Amazing game, came in with big clutch shots

Harden - questioning what he was doing, Isos were scaring me, came up big at the end though with his shots

Parsons - played good but sucks he fouled out

Jones - Good job out there with blocks and clutch rebounds

Howard - needs to practice on his free throws but had a solid game

Overall - very sloppy game we started out strong but things weren't clicking at the end but we fought and got the W

 

And to Dwight for the nice offensive board and pass to T-Jones under the basket for a layup in the 2nd OT. Now if we could just teach him to shoot free throws(and get a new head coach), we'd be in business.

 

Wish I was able to watch it on TV. The most comforting thing from all this is that Harden and Lin had chemistry and that the whole Harden/Lin confrontation was just over blown. I'd trade that for the 31 points any day. Now hopefully Howard and Lin are OK also.

On a side note, why the heck are we not getting Howard the ball in the second quarter?

 

Why is GAY consider a star?

 

Lowry 2 Houston.... Pronto

 

Well, we got to start from the bottom. First we beat Raptors, then we beat Sixers, then the Knicks, then...

 

Raps in 4?

 

what a rollercoaster game tonight, love the final win and Linsanity!

 

not with coach and female ref though :grin:

 

haven't watched the game replay yet? but from Chronicle's tweets, seemed like players switched roles. Lin scored, Harden assisted, TJones finally got a chance to play.

at least coaches and players know they have to do something different to stop the losing. boy, we're so different from our preseason form. harden's injuries and subsequent offensive problems such as loss of 3pt shooting are throwing the team off.

still early though. Team just has to learn to adjust in-game.

 

Lin showed what he can do with the bench role. He can be himself with the second unit and get his game going then play well enough to finish the game.

Team still made plenty of dumb decisions which is what I feel the teams biggest weakness is. Brain fades.

Harden was more engaged on defense but he still has a long way to go to improve on that side. Bad positioning, being to focused on the ball when 1 or 2 passes away.

TJones has a great impact and deserves all the playing time he got. Hopefully he can bring it consistently. If he does it may trigger and early Asik/Anderson trade.

Hopefully we can start hitting those 3's again, with a lighter schedule we could build up some momentum.

 

yeah, waiting for it!

 

I guess the TT experiment is now officially over.

 

Pretty much sums it up.

 

He's not considered a star. Never even has been an all-star.
