Clutchfans Game Thread: Thunder @ Rockets 8/20/2020 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 2)

Yeah because Harden really cares what some jobless unemployed bum in his mamas basement thinks of him. I’m sure Harden in his Ferrari back in Houston will wipe his tears with his 100 dollar bills.

keep having a stroke whiner

 

What f*cking loser

 

Yes, I wasn't not even mad at that even though I am die-hard Rockets and beard fan. So that's the definition of clown, right, making people laugh. Harden made him cry and while, that's a killer.

 

Man what a gutsy win! The Rockets just imposed their will over OKC. How bout that start to the 4th? What an awesome run that was with Harden on the bench! And you knew (true Rockets fans) Harden was gnna pull thru in the 4th and hit some BIG shots, the back down on Schroeder in the post with the shot clock running down, the dance at the top of the key with the three, and drawing fouls and sinking big time free throws. Awesome game by the Rockets!

 

With the way Kyle Tucker is hitting. I agree.
Yes to that scrub PJ as well.

 

just has to shoot less...
had he did it vs gsw he might have had the ring already

 

EG can keep taking it to the rack for all I care. He's strong, just got to stay in control

 

43 players this year shot 15 times per game.

Only 1 shot worse than 52.61% TS.

Levert at a little over 51%

It is VERY poor for any high volume shooter. It’s below league average. These are facts that you are some reason trying to fight all because I said this wasn’t Harden’s best game. Another undeniable fact.

I will end it here. Feel free to reply and keep ignoring reality if you choose.

 

Welp

He can watch His Bulls in the Lotto for the rest of his life.

 

Green and McLemore both! He picked those guys up off the trash heap. But he's not perfect. He did trade away MCW and waive Hartenstein; two of the biggest blunders in professional sports history.

 

worse than the Red Sox letting Babe Ruth go

 

Steve Adams is their Clint Capell.

He stood out there so lost. Defensively, he parks at elbow on in no mans land, not quick enough to cover the kick out or recover to the rim. Offensively, he can't shoot and only sets picks.

Man, that's the beauty of small ball, but unfortunately there aint too many centers left in our playoff to feast on like that.

 

Billy D did not call a timeout when the Rockets went on something like a 12-0 run in the 4th. Imagine if MDA did that.. Even Bill was asking why he didnt call a timeout, lol.

 

The Knicks are probably getting ready to offer Jeff Green a max contract

 

I am really surprised by JG thus far in these games --- I was like WTF He can do that? There was one play he brought the ball down and took it all the way finish at the rim. Man, most forwards in this league can't do that. He also knocked down a couple of critical treys for us. I can't believe I am saying this ... he is an upgrade over Clint.

 

house has been exceptional in the bubble. but tonite he made a big shot bob kind of coming out party, showing that same type of playoff confidence

 

Anyone that reads this carefully can see the deception with the stats you pulled.

Of course their season average isn't going to be that low, but that doesn't mean that shooting 52.61 TS% for one single game would be categorized as "VERY poor"... A very poor demonstration would be a game that pulls down the TS% FAR more than what a 53 TS% would. Perhaps a 20-35 TS% could be classified as "very poor".

Like I said before, James makes literally one more three and he has an excellent TS%, but you are out here saying he was "VERY poor".

And that is simply false. Good try though.

 

This never gets old

 

Good take. Donovan is going to have to strongly consider cutting his minutes. The only line worse than CP3’s -36 was Adams with -26.

Playing Gallo at the 5 and incorporating a SGA/Gallo PnR are very obvious adjustments to make at this point, IMO, if I were OKC.

 

I only get this joke because i watch Baseball now.

feels good.
