ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Thunder 3/3/2025

Soon as I read Jalen as part of that group I ignored the rest lol - heck was he smoking on

 

"We were soft...blah blah.."

 

Do we get a participation trophy ?

 

naw it's over. Nba is too tough. nba is where talent goes to die. If TyTy was able to hoop instead of the other fat PG, he would have been good. it's too late now.

 

glad you didn’t throw Rick adelman under the bus.

 

It was fun to see Sheppard hunt his shot tonight, not just from three but in the mid-range.

 

Big things are coming for Commander Sheppard. I just know it! He was ripping apart one of the best defenses in the league

 

When it was within 8 pts was when you put Green back in.

The final 7 minutes were garbage time in terms of defensive effort. The Thunder figured Ime conceded with Green on the bench. So they kinda went through the motions. And the defense was atrocious for the Rockets also giving the Thunder easy buckets every possession.

 

He started good; but he’s not aggressive finishing (for whatever reason) and he dribbles too much in the mid range.. 2 dribbles and go up and shoot

 

The Rockets better win tomorrow night. They punted on this one and in retrospect it was a winnable game.

Thankfully the Hawks just stunned the Grizzlies at the buzzer, so we didn't lose any ground on Memphis.

 

funny because Jalen was in that predicament last year. But what this game tonight showed is how we could play in a system not predicated on a 2 man Sengun screen and roll.

 

reported.

 

I don't get how Cam and Reed cant get any playing minutes.

 

OR...

Finally gave Ime a valid reason not to glue him to the bench. Only Whitmore played more minutes tonight.

 

I honestly don’t have good recollection why we let Adelman go. He was great.

 

If not, I’m joining you in the Ime hate club for a day or two

 

it’s a good thing we have a big cushion between us and the 6th seed

as long as we avoid Denver and LA in the 1st round, I’m good…gimme Memphis

 

Because Ime loves playing the vets no matter how badly they're stinking up the joint. It's inexcusable how he's still giving Jae'Sean and Aaron minutes over Cam and Reed.

 

guess they couldn’t get over the hump and just did a change for something. Same here, he could coach any player and make them decent.

I know his son use to coach ? Also remember something tragic happening to the family.

 

That is laughable. For a coach whose calling card is toughness...he nookied out...I've seen some on this team quit on him, tonight he quit on them. That's a poor example to show.
