ClutchFans Game Thread: Celtics @ Rockets 1/21/2024

time for @plegus to come in an say he's last on the first page

 

Good time to start Cam and bench Jalen now that we're halfway through the season.

 

I would say this was a winnable game if Jabari was playing. It will be tough with both him and Tari out.

 

Jabrari is out tonight…Tate starting. As much as I love Cam, still not at the point of benching Jalen Green. He’s a low bball iq turnover machine, but he’s also a 20-30 point scorer whose offense is desperately needed by this team.

 

I think and hope Uncle Jeff will be starting over Tate.

 

Guaranteed victory, wooooooo!!!!!

 

2nd time back to back against the Celtics, this is not looking good. I'd start Aaron and Cam and move Green and Tate to the bench so that we have all the highest 3P shooters on the team on the floor except Sengun. Let's jack up 3 pointers the whole night. If we can shoot 70%+ we win, otherwise just call it a day early. No need to have Tate and Green wasting energy on a unwinnable game.

 

Can we please get back on the Treadmill of Mediocrity?? (a.k.a. 0.500)

 

I trust Unc Jeff to start the Daytona 500



@Reeko

 

Cam should replace Jalen now. Cam is making strides with more pt.

 

The difference between a 40% 3 point shooter and a 32% 3 point shooter is simply too massive to ignore anymore. Cam is still a work in progress, especially on defense, but his shooting and his strong finishing at the rim cannot be ignored anymore.

If Jalen brought anything to the table, that might be different, but the guy is just a waste of a roster spot FAR too often.

 

I hope this one’s a slobber knocker!!!!!!

LFG!!!

 

I was cooking
Just like Alpi and Cam will today.

WW BABY

 

AND JABARI
AND AMEN
AND dont nuke me JG4

 

Jabari is not on the official injured list. How do you guys know that he is not playing?

Nothing dampens my excitement for a Rockets like the words “Tate starting.”

 

Correction: he’s a 17 point scorer who is the least efficient scorer in the regular rotation outside of rookie Amen Thompson.

And scoring is supposed to be his strength.
