ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Knicks 2/13/2021

Hopefully, they don't shoot like that in the game 7 of the WCF again this year.

 

That Herro guy isn't bad.

Neither is that Doncic guy

Prozingis if healthy is a top player

This sounds more like Rush, When is the last time a black QB has won a SB? How many have they won? How many Black HC's have won SB's and when is the last time he won one?

 

Yes Dončić is from Slovenia, Porzingis from Latvia. I was specifically talking about American white guys.

 

I thought we were just talking about race not national orign. I mean you brought up Sabonis he's a Russian.

 

Lol go back and read my post. And Sabonis is not Russian. His father is Lithuanian. Domantas was born in Portland. Yes he's American, but the reason I mentioned him as a technicality was that, you know, his father just happened to be one of the greatest basketball players of all time so his upbringing wasn't traditional American.

 

Lithuania used to be part of the Sowjet Union.

Arvydas Sabonis.

Why you probably think he was Russian.

 

Well, it's time to be critical of Silas here and or Wall, because our offense looks like straight up garbage. Nobody's really cutting, it's one pass and then nothing. Guys are just taking shots after that one pass at the basket, heavily guarded and it's way too easy to defend us.

 

The hope would be that he becomes the next Klay, but Klay is an all-NBA defender.

Kispert will most likely become the next Joe Harris, who we’d have to pay $20M to on his second contract.

 

What ever color or country the Rockets come from, they suck. If they can score i dont care if they play slow, fast, layups 3 pointers. Just win the game. I do not care who the coach is, or what the team salary is. But for the love of God please quit making the Rockets look like such a **** show right now. That is my prayer on Valentine's day.

 

Lets just pray picks are worth this shitshow

 

Answering for Black History Month:


Doug Williams, Russell Wilson, Patrick Mahomes

Tony Dungy, Mike Tomlin

What is your point? Regardless of race, all five men are incredible talents.

Extra Black History for free:

George Washington Carver was incredible and has done incredible things for this country. It would have a very different shape had he not been who he was. Our farmers across the nation were over planting certain crops and beating the soil to death. He came up with some crop rotation alternatives to keep those fields productive indefinitely and our agriculture here owes him huge thanks for his contributions there, but there's far more.

He had patents for cosmetics, paints and also stains. He pushed for the use of peanuts and we can thank him for peanut butter(he didn't invent it, but did push it to be the common product we know today), roasted peanuts, peanut oil.. you name it. It's all common place now because of his work. The man loved to figure out all the ways the crop could be used. He aided in the use of peanuts to treat respiratory illness like Tuberculosis. He created rubbing oils, a hair product, wrote a book on 105 recipes for the use of peanuts, he was an expert witness that spoke to Congress well before black people were an accepted part of congressional meetings and thus broke a barrier for access to the government. He founded at least 3 different companies during his life but perhaps there are more I wasn't able to find.

When he found that the sweet potato replenished the soil on overused land, he developed 73 different dyes from them, 17 wood fillers, 14 types of candies, several types of flour, and even molasses. He also had ways to make vinegar, dry coffee and instant coffee, candy, after-dinner mints, orange drops, and lemon drops. All from sweet potatoes.

He published 44 bulletins for farmers so that they would have access to his successful agricultural strategies. He appeared in cookbooks, magazines, and newspapers, such as the Peerless Cookbook, Good Housekeeping, and Berry's Fruit Recipes. The man was such a legend that David Robinson started a school in San Antonio named the Carver Academy in his honor. His accomplishments certainly live on and are a foundation that have been built upon and built upon... certainly that foundation he left with his life's accomplishments, help our economy and the quality of living that we have today.

Brilliant man, educator and peacemaker between black and white society at a time where things could not have been any hotter.. just after the Civil War. He was born a slave, but with freedom he showed the true value of a creative genius being freed to do what he put his mind to.

 

Rockets are red.
New city jersey is blue.
After Valentine's Day.
The losing streak shall close.

 

I don’t know if he wants out . I did hear the Hawks are taking offers.

I do know that the Hawks aren’t going to give him up for PJ Tucker and Danuel House. We are talking about a guy that averaged 21 and 10 last year . He’s only 23.

 

Great post and I'm afraid this country is headed back to those very troubled times.

If one parent is black and the other parent is white does that make the QB black?

 

I imagine that definition is pretty fluid. People are people, good folks are good, bad folks are bad... all ranges of qualities are within us all. Your DNA is 99.9% the same as every person on Earth. I'm not sure we need to define all this stuff to have a better world, but acceptance seems to be key to any peaceful situation.

Agreed

Acceptance of what?

 

Trade that bum unless you want tank commander

 

Amen.
