ClutchFans Game Thread: Raptors @ Rockets 10/7/2022 (Preseason)

If Lucas compares another Rocket to Avery Johnson or Vinny Del Negro or any other 90s Spur, I'm going to lose my mind up in here, up in here.

 

LMAO!! lucas is going crazy..

me waiting for Lucas to compare Tari to Bruce Bowen on defense so I can file a report.

 

They want to go through a painful boring season of no hope to have a 14% chance of landing #1. Just doesn't make sense.

I don't even know what they think a tanking Rockets team would look like? They're already among the youngest teams in history, do they want to sit Jalen and Jabari? Clowns.

 

On the bottom right of the screen is the on/off toggle.

It didn't work for me until I rebooted LP

 

Ya I made this point in another thread. If this team needs to sit out 19 and 20 year olds to lose games then we already found our future contending core.

 

This team is going to be fun to watch for the next decade. Get your season tickets before they go up


Rafa and Tilman deserve an apology from all you doubters.

 

No toggle for me using the app + chromecast

I'm getting used to it though, as long as it doesn't cover the score it's not so bad

 

Sam Presti thinks otherwise.

 

Ok - sad to hear!

It was super annoying for me on the TV app.
The toggle was when I pause to go forward or back and was on the right.

 

Tell me when you coach AAU or youth basketball.

At least I do something for the community. You just love a quitting loser (probably share a lot in common with him)

 

So all the media asking questions and no one bothered to ask: hey that 3rd pick of yours, any updates?

 

Anyone else think Green is about to go off this year?

 

Usman Garuba has Terry Cummings written all over him

 

Nix. I’m not ready to give up on him, but he’s got to get better. He was terrible tonight.

 

The Raptors were all over Jalen Green defensively. He punished them hard. That's the biggest gain from this game.

 

Fernando reminds me of J.R. Reid.

 

Chris A. White is a big Houston Rockets fan on twitter. I follow him.

 

He wasn't wearing a moon boot on the bench and was jumping up and down any time we had a good play, which was plenty tonight. Ankle can't be that bad

 

Nix wasn’t just bad by himself - he seemed to make the other individual players and the team as a whole worse when he was on the floor. I’m not sure what the front office thinks he’s capable of doing, but right now he looks like a slow, heavy set guard who doesn’t have the skills to run an offense or score with any regularity.

Both TyTy and Maledon showed more potential, although those 2 lazy pass turnovers by TyTy were inexcusable. But even if they’re as raw as can be, they’re still better than Nix. Nix looks like he’s going to be this year’s House - a player who deserves no playing time based on his performance but the team will give him minutes nonetheless.
