ClutchFans Game Thread: Magic @ Rockets 12/21/2022

I’m not even taking this team seriously anymore. I’m just here screwing around lol

 

In the big picture, the loss was probably for the best.
But man, this one hurts.

 

I’m not saying it’s the worst thing, I’m saying that he’s not a good point guard and that he literally threw parts of the game away with his playmaking. Have I been spoiled by Harden? Obviously yes. But KPJ should be used as a scorer and not whatever it is he’s being used as now.

He’s not being played to his strengths, and that’s obvious to me

 

And yes, his turnover was bad. KPJ had multiple in the 4th that were bad, so did Jalen. Jabari had some.

 

This! And KPJ guarded Banchero better than Gordon

 

Yeah man, this is getting tough to watch

 

Sengun ass on D. It’s okay, he’s got plenty of company out there

 

I just like messing with SOFs. Bruno is ass

 

I don't get it, why would this meaningless game, in a meaningless season illicit any form of emotional response.

 

This team is ass on D, I don’t think Alp would be terrible on D in a system where all 5 players were smart and efficient. He would be a good team defender on a team like Miami

 

I think Bruno gives good energy in short spurts, but there’s a point of diminishing returns

 

This game and season has been about COACHING, COACHING, COACHING. Mario Ellie mentioned it in the Postgame.

Silas stuck with the bench too long in the 4th, didnt instruct the players on what to look for in the Zone Defense and he's not playing Tyty.

 

I think he’d be worse bc team would go after him big time. On this team, they can go after whoever

 

Gordon can’t keep playing SF - he gets abused

playing EG with the bench hasn’t worked out but maybe that’s (tanking)

Rockets with only 17 FT attempts … that’s crazy

 

It's just weird complaining about him when he was the best player on the court...

 

He just runs around and jumps high, making us thinks he’s gonna block some shots

 

Sucks that no one will listen to us.

Rockets are going to be toast against the Mavericks unless they learn how to run some sort of a NBA offense. This home stretch started out wonderfully and has faded into a wet fart.

All I expect from them is to crash the boards and hit some shots (and not turn the ball over a million times). Let’s see how disappointed I’ll be

 

Once again I hate the magic for that smoke screen
