ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Blazers 11/16/2012

Hope the Rockets take this one, already lost once against the Blazers... Gonna be a tough game at the noisy Garden, hope the Rockets keep their composure and not have a meltdown at the end.

 

Should be interesting to see how the new offensive sets work out, and how much new stuff they try to pull off.

It's like watching a different team every game.

On the bright side, it makes us hard as heck to scout.

 

Dude that would make my night. But unless Lin comes out with a different attitude, it's not gonna happen. Has he even taken more than 10 shots in the last 4 games?

 

Is it bad that I hope he rests this game or is less than 100%

I'd rather that the win be over a 100% healthy Blazers squad.

 

honestly, I didn't love his D against the hornets. I think Aldrich should get a few minutes too..they guy was making some decent progress. I like Smith as well but when Asik went out in the 4th all hell broke lookse against the Hornets, especially on D and rebounding...

 

We must get revenge!!

Goals of the game:
Starters -----
Harden takes less than 5 contested shot
Asik to do more than 5 dunks
Lin does at least 10 attempts and makes 5 of them
Ppat to take at least 9 boards
Parsons to finish at least 5 assists/fast breaks

Bench -----
Delfino shoots no more than 2 uncontested 3 pointers
Douglas doesn't turn the ball over from over running!
Morris to get a least 15 points
Jones gets 5 min playing time!!!
Greg >_> don't know yet...

 

This will be a tough game against a tough Blazers team. Have to defend Aldridge well and Damian Lillard is a serious player!

 

Re-phrase it "Harden takes less than 5 contested shots past the free throw line"

 

I hope to see Jeremy Lin go to the FT line more than once. If he does that, then he's on his way back to his old self.

 

REVENGE - LIFTOFF TO HOUSTON.



Can we fast forward to the game yet?


The moment you realize that you'll have to sleep, go to work, battle traffic and finally get to watch the game.

 

He had a handful of Linsanity-like plays against the Blazers last game. He should attack them every chance that he gets.

 

You mean.... he shouldn't do contested shot past the free throw line? (Like lays and stuff) Or away from the free throw line? (Or 3s) I'm more worried about the hero 3s than anything >_>

 

Which of the following will have the highest total?

A) Lin TOs
B) Asik missed shots within 3' of basket
C) Patterson rebounds

 

my only goal for the game is to see same serious ball movement...let the ball find its shot..and everything else will fall in its place...we have a championship contender team....

 

Offtopic but, will there be any streams of todays Vipers pre-season game?

 

She-Mac retired from the Rockets a couple of years ago. :grin:
