ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Heat 11/1/2015

That had something to do with it, but in the first half the Rockets were actually moving the ball. They were cutting. They were driving and dishing. You know...the things good basketball teams do.

2nd half...all that disappears, and so does our lead.

 

I do think we had some good fortune. Thornton going full Curry-lite while Bosh sleepwalked was a pretty good recipe for a good first half. I'd venture to say neither of those are the norm.

He's been a big disappointment.......very underwhelming.

 

James missing 3s is killing us. Tonight he made 0 but attempted more shots then any one else in the game. After going 0-5 he should of given up attempting 3s tonight and focus more on getting others open and involve. If he can't lead the team this losing is going to become a norm. When that building got loud and when Heat started going on a run a time out should have been called to stop the bleeding.

 

We should be at least 11-5 at the end of this.

 

Just laying here and keep seeing Harden run to the corner as a heat player launches a three. The only problem is that once again Harden has been lazy on d and is about 20 ft from his man. How many times did this happen tonight?

 

So I'm watching the replay , as of 9:00 in the fourth we aren't playing awful . Miami has made a lot of tough shots and we have missed some open looks . We don't look as good as we did in the first half but aside from a defensive lapse or two from harden and Lawson we look ok . The ball movement was a little stagnant, but we just missed shots .

 

Nice try Mchale

 

I was never excited about Ty Lawson coming to the Rockets. He may still need time to fit in with the team. This reminds of when we got Josh Smith last year and everyone including myself was blaming him for us losing. Then bam! Something happen and we started winning games again.

 

Sign Thibs. Sign Larry Sanders. Trade for JSmoove. Start Bev and bring Lawson off bench.

 

7:00 still hustling , a few miscommunications with Lawson . Harden makes a great block and save on dwade . Down 4

 

Nice post *******

 

You really are Mchale!

 

Hey buddy, we don't need to re live this crappy game

 

5:00 Lawson lets his man by him , makes mistake not going for wide open layup ...instead passes back to James who is cold . Mchale puts in montrez for rim protection over Hayes good call .

 

Oh I'm sorry , it's just that this is the ****ing game thread so that kinda what you are supposed to post about in here .

 

4:00 is when it falls apart . I'll stop posting recaps of what I see now . We played 3.5 quarters of acceptable ball and a half of great ball . It's clear that harden and Lawson are figuring out the offense right now . Lawson has got to pick up his d . Harden has also had lapses but he is far from tanking the team right now .

 

so we only played a half quarter of "unacceptable" bball and got blown out by 20?

stop this crap already.
