ClutchFans Game Thread: Bucks @ Rockets 1/9/2019

We are the lowest assist team in the league, we dont need a ton of team assists to win.

 

I couldn't have said it better myself.

 

Harden wasn't tri-dub material tonight

Just remembered Gordon is DNPing besides Paul.

I'm not even trippin on this close loss vs a good team.

 

Rockets actively looked like they didn't care in the 3rd quarter. Careless turnovers. No defense. D'Antoni not doing anything.

Deserved loss

 

To be fair Brook has always been a terrible, softass rebounder.

 

First time in a while no one else showed up to help Harden. Really missed Gordon tonight and obviously CP3.

 

Why, Just Why?

 

Unfortunately this game was lost in the 3rd quarter, more specifically the last half of the third quarter and the first few minutes of the 4th. The comeback was a valiant effort, but that effort didn't translate to a W this time. The hole was just a little too deep and our MVP missed a few easy shots (for him). Sh*t happens, on to the next game.

Over this very, very tough stretch the Rockets have played great. Now it's time to do what the team did very well last year, and even the year before that: put away cupcake teams. If the Rockets can bring consistent effort against the non-contenders and bad teams, their record will be looking good in a few weeks.

I believe the team has turned a corner, but they'll need to prove it by manhandling teams like the Cavaliers and the Magic

 

Clint was really off tonight. 4-16 from the field. Still kept it close without CP3 and EG against the top seed in the east. We survived the toughest stretch of our schedule. Disappointing game, but not the end of the world.

 

Bad shooting night, and we have some injuries. Bucks are a good team.

Would have been nice to have Chris Paul or Eric Gordon handle the ball after seeing James struggle with clean passes.

 

Unlucky loss. James Harden Highlights

 

THIS

 

Can blame Capela on that. He wasn’t able to finish tonight. If he did, we would have gotten the win. But hey some night you won’t have it, that’s just how it goes sometimes

 

Sucks cause we could've won by playing more focused and with more energy earlier, we waited that timeout with 8 minutes left to try hard enough, it wasn't easy at that point obviosuly. But considering we're without Chris and Eric i think it's ok, the Bucks are a good team, they have a top 3 coach in the league imo, on to the next one.

 

I donno about Ennis, he fouls alot and they were already kinda getting to the line. I like him, he just has to stop fouling, I dont know why Gary does not play.

 

I wouldn't call this negative vibes. It just felt weird, lol.

 

To you maybe. You posted they’re not what their rated. They’re rated as one of the top teams in the east. Which is true

 

Sour grapes.

 

Also, you can't give teams like a 25-2 run and expect to win a game.

 

NBA should take back all those timeouts for Rockets.

MDA doesnt need them anyway.
