ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Bulls 1/5/2015

Hopefully DMo and Smith can handle Gasol

 

Who's out for the bulls? Is Jimmy Butler playing?

 

Butler will be playing. Dunleavy and McDermott are out.

Hope Harden does his thing tonight, I can already hear Bulls fans shouting how Butler's better if their statlines are even close.

 

I want to see more of this!

We beat ourselves.

 

Going to be a good game. I hope to see the Dwight we seen the other night.

 

Harden versus Butler should be very entertaining. Both players are in the running for the MVP award. Harden gets my vote but Butler is having a pretty good year.

 

Well, the Wizards did make all but 2 of their foul shots, so give them some credit. But yes, the starters were horrendous that night.

 

Is this Butler's first game back?

 

Rose has been shooting like crap for the past few games. We need to cut down his driving lane and give him that outside shot. He simply can't shoot right now -- 26% from 3's on the year.

 

Yes, but he wasn't injured. He missed a game due to bereavement leave.

 

He'd fit right in with our lineup.

 

Rose is questionable for tonight. Injured his hip last game.

 

i'm nervous about the defense and the opponent's dribble penetration...teams have been getting to the rim so easily on us...

hope rose doesn't feast on that tonight...

 

Rose is probable.

 

Personally looking forward to the dino wrestling in the middle. Might set a record for the most and highest goal tending on record 1

 

Gasol's gotta handle D-mo first

 

Loss.

Sucks cause ordinarily I would be okay with a loss here, the Bulls are a great team. But we've dropped so many winnable games already that a loss here is gonna hurt.

 

Guess I won't watch
