ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Clippers 2/13/2013

*be due

 

This aint soccer. If it was Russell Westbrook or Cp3 imagined what would happened even if it was accidental.

 

One guy from left use his leg to block lin to make him flop. The other guy intentionally kicked hard at lin but misjudged the distance.
It is lucky that lin is 1 feet away, or he will be serious injured

 

I doubt it.

 

Harden and TD was out Delf was a non factor we just have 2 hope by the time playoffs start we can compete with the top 4 teams

 

True, but I don't think the desire to be treated fairly is restricted to kids.

Harden is our only tough guy. You see him run people over like a tank to score to the point of were they part like the red sea so he can get an easy layup. He also got in Ray Allens face and started jawing at him. That's what we need.

 

Do you really think McHale should treat every player similarly? I hope this stuff with Lin hasn't gone as far as abuse, but yelling at him and not others is okay as long as there is purpose. (In my book... which I seriously need to write, otherwise I should stop referencing it so much.)

 

It also applies to some other fans here where they put Harden above the team...So let's be fair with everybody... you couldn't see a Harden rant here even though he exceeds everybody in TO's...If we called out his TO, we are easily labelled as LOF..if we called out his unnecessary ISO, we are labelled LOF....if we called out McHale for his rotations and misuse of Lin we are labelled LOF..If we called out Mchale for his tough love ( bias ) against Lin we are labelled LOF..

What else can Lin fan do, everything we say are considered excessive blind love for Lin even though we merely states something we notice..we do feel sad too when the team loses...what's the point of having a great stat when your team is at the bottom of well..

 

Probably just for today. Even with a healthy Harden we would likely still lose. The Clippers played with sub-par effort and it was still basically a blowout game.

The only thing I didn't like about today's game is the mindset of the players. Other than Parsons, Lin, and D-Mo, no one was even competing. Maybe it's the players themselves or the coaches not preparing the players. The first quarter play was obvious, everyone was ready to give the game away.

 

Speak for yourself, don't speak for fans around the world. I have faith in Lin. I won't judge him by one or two games, or even one or two seasons. And I think he is going very well now and capable of more.

 

We're gonna start having Dmo-only haters soon.

 

If it has a good purpose, I think it's okay.

 

I only saw 2 "bad" 3 point attempts out of the 25 we took. Most of them were without even a hand in the shooter's face. They got good looks outside. They were just not knocking them down tonight.

 

Jeremy's face fouling Deandre Jordan's hand.


Moment after Jeremy's face kicked Hollins' foot.


Jeremy's crotch offensively fouling Griffin's hand.


PPat's defense hard at work.


Can you believe he's real? ♥

 

Well this game looked worse that the final score showed. But at the end of the day, people only talked about the final score. So no blown-out against a tough Clippers is a moral victory in my book :grin:. Hope Harden and Lin get good rest for their respective injuries during this ASG break.

We will kick some butts in the second half of the season! Go Rockets!

 

Yes, no other Rocket is willing to risk injury to score.

 

It's called inconsistency by the coaching staff. If the coach is going to yell at you for making a bad play, then the coach better damn well yell at all the other players making the same mistakes on the court. Have you ever seen McHale yell at Chandler or Hardin for turning the ball over more than Lin?

 

I find it hard to believe considering all the coaching decisions from McHale are sketchy at best.
