ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Jazz 4/20/2019 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 3)

I could have lived with that first half if you just didn’t give up that ingles 3.

 

We get this version of Harden once every playoffs. Its frustrating but we just gotta try and grind out a win.

 

Hot garbage 1st quarter.

We playing like we don't want to win.

 

I thought this was the year that harden finally breaks out of his playoff funk but i guess I was wrong typical Harden

 

Such a weird game by James

 

I definitely do not believe James Harden will be finishing this game without making any shots. I think the Rockets have to come out in the 3rd and punch them in the nose. With this crowd as lively as it is I'd much rather see the Rockets build up a lead going into the fourth that keeps the crowd out of it.

 

lol

 

That is obviously his biggest flaw IMO, if nothing goes his way he looks just lost out there at times until he recovers but it still takes time.

And if Chris Paul is gone, that is getting magnified.

In the Playoffs dudes are just getting into more troubling situations, tons more than in the regular season.

 

Harden needs to redeem himself in second half. Too much slopiness for his greatness

 

Harden had his worst first half of his career(which ****ing sucks). But we are only down 5. I still see us winning this.

 

man everyone rippin' on james... sad to see. he'll be fine. he is human

 

First half shows the value of a healthy CP3. He kept the team from imploding. CP3, Gordon and the bench have kept the team afloat. Harden can't have another half anywhere close to the first half.

 

Don't come back.

 

Hate when Harden plays like this. His shots aren't falling, he's being defended well, so he starts throwing lazy passes left and right giving up easy buckets. Gotta get him going in the 2nd half.

 

Harden playing like garbage tonight. It’s not just because of the Jazz. He’s making terrible decisions.

I’ll praise Harden and I’ll criticize him when it’s deserved...and it is so far. Hope he straightens out in the 2nd half. They gave up a free 3 at the end because of his stupidity. Inexcusable

 

Let's see if Mike D'Antoni will do something at the half.

 

Utah playing the game of their life, Rockets sucking. Still a close game

I like our odds

 

Harden MIA

 

This is one of those Harden playoff games, man. I guess the defense frustrates him and turns him into a zombie. Someone has to snap him out of it.

 

HarGod will bounce back and lead this team to another victory！
