ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Blazers 2/25/2016

They have a HUGE test on Saturday to see if they understand.

 

So I really really really pray JB learned from this.

Brewer is okay in spurts
Jones, Lawson shouldn't see the floor anymore and when Smoove is off you need to bench him like tonight. It's no surprise the 3 worst players all have the worst plus/minus.


Playing Harell, Terry and KJ, And Brewer no more than 20ish minutes will help this team so much. Get rid of the crap and put in some energy and heart.

 

Shocking come back, I'm blown away.

I still have very little faith in the team, and season, but great come back. Harden is simply put, a beast, glad he can shut up all the little whiny Harden **** talkers. Dude PUT THE TEAM ON HIS BACK DOE, 46 MINUTES, 46 POINTS, 8 ASSIST, 5 BOARDS, 2 STEALS on 60+% shooting.

Why does he seem so tired and ineffective on defense? Maybe because he's playing a ridiculous amount of minutes and carries a unreal offensive load. Harden does not have Klay, he doesn't have Green, he doesn't have Kryie or Love, Harden is ALONE on this team when it comes to offense, he does EVERYTHING.

 

Great comeback led by the defense. Even Brew played ok!

 

TNT slurping hard.

 

... and yet Rockets crushed the Blazers tonight ending their 6 game winning streak and 11 out of 12. Emotions are a fickle thing for fans. Down by 21 - end of the world - crush them in the end... Well hope springs eternal.

 

you've got it backwards. where were you when he played like shiit in the first half?

 

I think Brewer is only effective if the other players match his energy. He isn't very good but he can run forever.

Brewer looks like doof with his head cut off when no one is matching his energy.

 

Did u see his long pause at start of the 3rd Q. ? It was sad.

 

What are the inside the NBA crew saying?

 

Rockets just beat the team that completely smoked the Warriors. Yep, that is so Houston

 

Good point about matching his energy. I think pairing him with a guy like Harell who is all energy and hustle would be a good thing for them and the team.

 

I completely agree. When we're running off of rebounds, pushing the ball, moving with out the ball, Brewer is at his strongest.

If we're going to play Pick and Roll ball with Dwight and Howard...Brewer just shouldn't be out there.

 

fify. started off with the curry dick suckign fest, then showed the spurs now the okc v pels game. no rockets yet lol

 

Brewer is okay when we have momentum. If we don't, his dumb plays look even dumber.

Lawson is so damn disappointing. Can't even have him on the floor anymore. If he could just give us 15 minutes of solid play (not even DEN-Lawson), we would be in a better place.

Jones is the same way. Hope DMo can come back soon.

Give Smith the first 6 minutes of each half, if he doesn't have it, sit him.

 

Getting?????? He's been old forever

 

Great post brother

 

and mchale knew this way better than jbb.

when jbb started brewer, i was like "wtf"...

 

Okc too. Not that we are catching them but still

 

This game shows what can happen when we play 1 1/2 quarters od good solid basketball. :grin:
