ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Thunder 11/16/2016

Some of you guys need some Xanex or a job or something.

There is way too much butthurt going on. It is what it is. They blew it, hopefully learn from it and then go back out and play tomorrow.

Chill the F out with the 'sky is falling' dramatic BS. Go hang out in your safe space for a bit.

 

Its time to get rid of Ariza and Brewer and upgrade the SF position to a younger Athletic player. Ariza is just too damn streaky with his three and cant do anything else offensively. Also, your team is down three. Why are you cutting to the basket when your wide open? Cost us the game there with that turnover in the end.

 

Rox had to absolutely crap the bed in the 4th to allow OKC to win. These type of games can be important because the Thunder and Rox will be around the same record throughout the season. Just a bad loss.

 

jacking 3 after 3s is not reliable unless we are the warriors or some **** tihs is what happened when shots dont go in

 

This lost was sickening.

 

Yep, i think you're right since he also guarded Westbrook, he was probably dead in the end.

 

See avi.

 

Because that's what they are told to do. But it's basketball 101, late in a close game especially when outside shots are not falling take it to the basket.

I don't recall ever seeing a Rocket team without a guy why can score in the post. Heck bring back Dmo not that he was effectively used in the post anyway.

 

Its so disappointing that JVG didn't even get an interview

 

Les wants a team that chucks three's

Didn't you get the memo?

 

This is what's frustrating about James when his shot is off he checks out. Great game by Westbrook

 

Just ****ing horrible basketball those last 6 minutes... smfh

 

Whenever Harden has a bad game (he still had double-digit asts) it always looks like he is trying to sabotage the game. It looks like he forgets how to play basketball..

for 6 minutes Harden and the Rockets stood at the top of the key.. Harden didn't drive or anything.. just ISO jumpers..

When will Harden realize, when his shot isn't falling, he has to do something else to affect the game?

This was the best all around game from this team and they lost because they threw it out the window in the last 6 minutes.

 

If Harden is struggling offensively throughout the game, why go to isolation down the stretch and not run any plays? That's why the Rockets need a REAL point guard for the long haul.

 

Rockets should have sat harden . in final minutes if he wasn't going to be in score mode.

 

It was a bad loss though, gotta win these type of games against teams you are competing with for a playoff spot. But yes, GARM is ridiculous and insufferable after a loss. Always the same doom and gloom

 

Tough loss. They had A LOT of good looks in the last few minutes, they just didn't fall.

You're remoted to play like that. Players are lost when asked to do much of anything else

 

If you watched the game, you know rox is the joke of today. Thunder playing sucks but still win. Lollllllll.

 

Harden has been less than passable in the clutch this season. For someone who is supposed to be a finisher hes been below par down the stretch.

First game against Lakers he cost us the game with ISO and not moving the ball. First game against the spurs we played really well then we almost choked it away in the last three minutes when harden ISOed and turned the ball over once or twice. Tonight we had a comfortable lead when harden checked in and we somehow forgot how to score. Ball got sticky, ISO ISO ISO three after three after three. No ball movement. Big fat L.

For someone who was so dynamic down the stretch two seasons ago, he really has fallen off the pace in that regard. Where has the decisiveness gone? The killer instinct? The dagger step back?

Very concerning and i hate what our team does in the final five. MOVE THE BALL. You don't always have to chuck up a three.

Another loss that should have been a win. Infuriating. Unacceptable. This will bite us in the ass at the end of the season and harden isnt getting his mvp
