Clutchfans Game Thread: Blazers @ Rockets 11/14/2025

OKC did sit nearly half their team though.

 

Must win game. If we don't win, we lose.

 

Exactly. Sht be gettin real.

 

Portland sucks

Cruisin’ towards another boring Win!!!

 

Reed needs to score 30 or else he'll just be labeled another Jalen Green no cap

 

Not an easy game. Jewka Doncic has been balling out of his mind.

 

They've beaten the

Lakers
Thunder
Warriors
Nuggets

They can sure as hell beat the Rox if we're not careful

They seem to score a whole lot and play minimal defense.

Vs our defense and offense. Who knows?

 

That's the kind of Friday night excitement I'm looking for.

 

I knew Avdija was good but didn't see this coming. Dude is playing like an all-star so far this season and Portland has a decent record as a result despite their backcourt being devastated by injuries.

This is a game we should win but we do have to take them seriously.

 

This is not a team to take lightly. I expecting a close game.

 

Not gonna lie. I had no idea he was this good…

 

If we have any desire to win that cup then this is a must win, after losing to the Spurs last Friday.
Amen and Okagie should be focused on limiting Deni and Sharp. On the other side, Sengun and KD will try to not let Clingen and Camara slow them down. If we can get them into a quick foul trouble, we can use it to get an early lead and eventually to a blow-out win. But whatever happens, this year’s Blazers are not an easy opponent.

 

Am I the only one who'd like to see them win their remaining cup games, but barely miss out on heading to Vegas? Then they'll get to face much easier opponents. Last season, they had to play the Warriors and Thunder 5 times each thanks to their cup success.
