ClutchFans Game Thread: Timberwolves @ Rockets 2/25/2017

That was a fun game!

Clint's left handed grab and throw down...

Anderson's dunk... (That one shocked me)

Harden going off in the third and blessing us with a new dance (I think?)...

This team is so much fun to watch and it's clear they're having a blast out there.

One thing is for certain though. We need better fans. I wish I lived in Houston just so I could attend Rockets game (I've only ever been there for a weekend for a job interview... I HATED the traffic). As an outsider looking in our love crowds are so sad to watch and make me a little embarrassed. Is there a reason our arena is half-empty and super quiet? Football town? Expensive seats?

 

wtf is going on

 

Are you in Hawaii?

 

Even if he does have a **** Houston mind set, does that not make him the perfect piece? Bogut are you reading this? YOU ARE THE PERFECT PIECE.

 

6 guys with 15+ points and 8 guys in double figures. This offense is so loaded and fun to watch.

 

I hope not.. I hope Capela is pissed and embarrassed. It's not enough to be happy with a win when you're dominated by your matchup.

 

MH is soft as Charmin on the glass, a pure hustle guy, who will pick up points in the system/w/James.

Trez might look like Michael Cage, but that's it..

 

The fire power we have is unreal. I mean 106 through three and a grand total of 142. Just wow. My only hang up is we allowed 130 points to the Timberpups. They literally destroyed us in the paint and on the boards. But hey we came out victorious and that's all that matters.

Good win for the good guys

 

Williams - 26 minutes - 9 FTA
Harden - 35 minutes - 10 FTA

Keeping teams in foul trouble helps the cause.

 

NEVER FORGET!!

all of sudden media knew EG and Anderson were good pickups. Soon Lou will be in that category.

 

He's afraid of getting blocked. I can accept this a little better when he pumps from the top of the arc because he has been blocked there before and it led to a fast break. From the corners though, I don't the think the risk is big enough to be scared on those marginal calls, because blocks generally go out of bounds or don't lead to fast breaks that easily.

As for the big deficiency, it's real, but it's not like Capela/Nene/Harrell were butt awful. Rockets had Ariza and Dekker playing 4 for much of the game, so they're going against two legit bigs most of the time with a small center and a SF (or Ryno). A lot of the rebounding mistakes were not on our centers, but on the rest of the team for not rotating when our centers went to stop the penetration.

 

Pretty sure the perfect piece would actually want to play in Houston, LMAO.

 

Trez definitely trick some fans into thinking he can do more than he can with his hustle plays and monster dunks. He is an awful rebounder and average post defender. KAT was feasting on his carcass too.

I really like trez though, but he isn't the guy.

 

He played against KAT and Dieng on the floor together while he had Ryan Anderson, its not like he got out rebounded by Ricky Rubio. Not saying he's perfect but ofcourse he's not better than KAT.

 

Bogut is physically broken down and can't run. He's not Rocket material.

 

I agree I just dont see him as being perfect, maybe I'm missing something. Perfect to me would be another superstar, lol. But that's just me.

 

Anderson needs to start following his shot sometimes
