ClutchFans Game Thread: Warriors @ Rockets 5/10/2019 (Playoffs Round 2, Game 6)

Rockets don’t lose this series with Terry Scott’s on the sidelines

 

It's frustrating with James. Capela, pathetic. If you're going to run your mouth back it up. And I really thought that they would use Manimal and wear down the Warriors but silly me, I mean who needs a bench!

 

I am ashamed of myself for supporting this team and wasting my time on them.

 

Warriors won it at the free throw line.

 

Morey wanted no ****ing part of D’Antoni. MDA was Les’s hire

#neverforget

 

Fire that loser right now

 

Why the hell would you pull CP3 when we are up 5 ****ing points in the best game of the series for him?

Only Mike lol

 

Oh well. "Go Bucks", I guess...they're the only team left in the playoffs that can seriously challenge and possibly defeat the Warriors.

This Rockets team has been frustrating for me to watch all season long. Too much standing around watching Harden and CP3 dribble for 20 seconds. No coaching adjustments. No flow to the offense. Charmin soft Capela. Strange substitution patterns by D'Antoni. Over-relying on analytics...even taking forced 3-pt shots when there's a wide-open far easier shot just a few feet in. Too much flopping, hoping that the refs will bail them out.

This team needs to make significant changes (both in player roster and coaching) if they are to get over the hump. Every player not named Harden, CP3 or PJ Tucker should be expendable. The Warriors will still be strong next season even if one or more of Durant, Klay or Draymond leaves. And the Nuggets, Spurs, Clippers, etc. should all be better next season (especially if the Clips get Kawhi). Unfortunately Houston's salary situation doesn't seem all that great. It may be time to increase the heat on Daryl Morey's seat, too.

 

OMG, I was just about to type in I am done with basketball when I saw your post at the end. I hear ya man.

I have been a die hard Rockets fan since I can remember. I remember staying up til the wee hours of the morning when we played LA in the Western Conference Finals back in 86 and I was stationed in Puerto Rico. The time difference was brutal but worth it. I have always been a die hard fan. The Championship years were so special, but man, its just been too much misery since. I am done with basketball now and forever.

I get my hopes up and pour my heart out rooting for guys week after week, year after year. They are filthy rich and can't even bring it every game. I can't relate to that when I have always worked so hard for my money as a veteran and now, working with children with Autism. I love what I do and I don't work to get rich, and never have. Maybe that's why I can't relate to these guys demanding so much money for doing nothing but entertain.

Well, In not entertained. I don't enjoy it any more. I am done with the primadonnas of basketball for good. Somebody else can support their greed but it won't be me. This team and their overpaid players has let me down to a point of no return. Bye bye Rockets.

 

Play CP3, Harden, Tucker, Faried, Capela as starters ... EG/Austin from bench and Nene as Backup center... the result would be better.

 

To play hard and lose is one thing, but to be outplayed on your home court in an elimination game with no sense of urgency is inexcusable. Just a pathetic performance. Don’t ever compare this team to the 90s Rockets team. They don’t have half the heart that they had.

 

Fookin chokers

 

There isn't a good NCAA coach they can pry away? Would Kelvin Sampson be an upgrade?

I'm well aware of how badly this team did when they overreacted and fired Adelmann, but I'm guessing that someone as impatient as Fertitta is going to feel the need to FIRE SOMEBODY after this disaster of a series.

I'm not sure he'd be wrong, either. Has this team gone as far as MDA can coach them?

 

Rockets don’t lose this series with Jeff Van Gundy on the sidelines.

 

Congratulations for giving some NBA columnist hack their idea for framing their article describing the game. Better than a lot of game recaps I've read.

 

I'm so tired of losing to this damn team! It's infuriating!

 

The offense is so clunky and predictable. It's rarely smooth...sometimes it feels flowing when players are hitting three's at a high rate. Other than that, it doesn't look good. And in the playoffs and against good teams the offense gets exposed.
