ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Grizzlies 3/20/2019

I don't care. He can't outbox to save his life. How many times does he allow someone to get the board over his head? Plus, his paint defense has been nothing but trash since the all star weekend.

 

not enough sand in his pants. i hope we dont get matched up with the blazers or the thunder in the first round

 

There are games like this that really make me want to walk away from watching basketball. These refs make it so obvious that they are rigging games. Val was all over Clint’s back and Clint gets called for the foul

 

Refs were in the bag the whole game man. This was a classic fixed game. They knew they could call touch falls for Valuncias all game which is how he set a career high for free throw attempts. Bucks lose against the Cavs without Giannis and Rockets can't beat Grizzlies with Harden is the narrative they're pushing. Horseshit touch fouls over and over.

 

I’m sorry, but I can’t blame the refs for a loss to Memphis. That’s on us.

 

I need to know the name of the ref who called the foul at the end. That's bullshit. There ain't no foul.

 

You have to jump on these bad teams early and make them quit.

 

Capela getting his lunch eaten by another good offensive center as is tradition

 

we need a real center

 

They got so many second chance points. We got out reb almost every ****kng game. Clint got man handled tonight.

 

I’m no longer an HOF

 

Memphis with 39 GDM FTs.

 

its actually pj tucker that sucks at rebounding, clark is a better rebounder and a smarter defender

 

I gotta call balls n strikes. House nutted up n choked this game. Clint was a idiot n has been getting outplayed alot more time then not as of late. Beard omg that's was the greatest thing I've seen in a minute. I'm almost thinking when its all.said in done...on this path he on, he might end of being better then kobe....harden is getting unreal

 

That was supposed to be a no call. Refs shouldvsh let it play out in a 2nd OT. That being said, Rockets should have never been down 18 to the Grizzlies to start the 4th. Our defense especially the first 3 qtrs was abysmal. I understand it was a b2b on the road but this shohdlsho have happened. But not too worried, we'll be fine come playoff time.

 

Bottom line.....James Harden is the best player.......perhaps ever.

Even though weak sauce refs decided the game literally, Harden is GOAT. Amazing special generational player.

Not another player outside of Hakeem and MJ could carry a team COMPLETELY like Harden.

 

Longer term, the depth is still shaky at best. Role players cannot keep up the consistency.

 

Should have gave a damn in the first half

Terrible loss. Rockets continue to waste games. Nothing changes.

 

100% a foul on Clint.

On the second night of a back to back playing heavy minutes is where you lose out on those effort plays sometimes.

Edit: If they’re going to call that on Clint the two hands on Capella’s back needs to be called before.

We ALL know Harden was going to call game if he had the chance.

 

He was trying to box him out - Jonas gave him two shoves and held him down with his left hand while he jumped up to get the board.
Did you wonder why Capela wasn't jumping to get the rebound?
