ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Knicks 12/17/2012

Idk but Big Sean and Wale was there.

 

I haven't rewatched the game, but I did notice more screens, so that's one difference.

 

Are you kidding? The coaching in this game cannot be more different.

The TOR game started with Lin trying to attack, they set 2 lazy picks on Calderon for him, followed by a quick early timeout for McHale to "make an adjustment." After the "adjustment," there was 0 pick on Calderon for the entire half and half the 3rd.

Of course, now that people are paying attention to how well the team works when it rains picks for Lin, it will be a heck of a lot harder for the coaching staff to get away with that sort of silly "adjustments" without getting called out every time they try to pull it.

 

Can we play the Knicks every night?

 

This team has all the potental of becoming a very good team.

Harden keeps playing like this and is only 23

Lin stays aggressive and keeps looking to be creative by looking for his shot and opening up the game for others

Asik had a terrible game, but he has size and elite defence.What he lacks for bad hands and offensive awarness, he needs to make it up on defence

Those three guys are the linchpins. Once we add another piece like an Millsap or another legit PF, this team in a few years can be deadly.

Don't know but it's a pretty interesting channel on YouTube... Here's a detailed analysis of the game...

This is the last time we'll verse them. But we beat them both times though!

 

To be honest, I could not take it anymore. His voice pitch is too high.

 

Wow! They've really got the Knicks number! This team is so confusing.

 

lol. He's always like that. No extra substances, that is just his personality. He's my brother, I ought to know.

gorockets2009 -- Sorry my voice pitch is high. I get a ton of remarks on my voice. I have a gap in my teeth, so sometimes my voice 'whistles.' That may be what you're hearing, in the analysis video.

 

Does Andre have a secret basketball fantasy league?

 

It's really hilarious to read the reaction on the New York Knicks blog to this game. Lol.

This gem is great:

"I mean the ******* spurs , who have some damn good defense, had to score 132 points to beat these little bastards the rockets are taylor made to beat the **** out of older teams. They’ve got like 6 players capable of double digit scoring. Its pick your poison with them. Lin is in a great situation because he really doesn’t have to score at all. What absolutely sealed my prediction was felton saying " we will be 11 and 0 after this" whyyyyyyyyyy??? The man knows he can’t handle that type of pressure. That’s the stuff you say when you’re winning too much. Tonight the knicks got destroyed. They have no one on the roster with an answer and shump cannot guard 4 players the knicks would have to outscore these guys or play a LOT smarter defense. The dribble penetration though…*******, damn, damn….I just stopped watching…I’m too used to winning now, my doctor says I shoudnt watch **** like that.."

 

He sounds pretty spot on regarding the team and Lin.

 

True definition of butt-hurt if ever there was one.

 

Thanks!

thejav -- everyone tells my brother he looks like Andre from The League. And they're right! lol

 

been watching a lot of your videos. thanks for the good work.
