ClutchFans Game Thread: Mavericks @ Rockets 3/3/2013

Wasnt Dirk doubled the entire game? My stream sucked so I lost focus. Was it one on one D?

 

Simple, change it to M.O.D. for short. Call him the MOD Turk.

 

No need for that. Let sleeping dogs lie.

 

Thanks Captain Obvious.

 

Bad ass game last night. We were down by two, went to grab a beer and when I came back we were up by 15 haha. My hair is still red and I want to yack at work. Woo

 

He was doubled constantly when he was around the top of the key or the elbow area. He was able to find shooters but thankfully, our defense picked it up and rotated beautifully almost every time he passed out of the double team.

 

FIFY.

 

So I get to work and look at Dallas ESPN to gloat and I see "Dallas, we have a problem" I about spit my coffee out. Freakin awesome.

 

unbelievable game last night. what a bi-polar team, jesus. I'm happy they won, but damn it'd be nice not to lose to the wizards and bucks after double digit leads!

 

Be lucky that Chandler Parsons went 12/13 from the floor.. The game would be a lot closer if he shot less than that.

 

Great game from everyone and a great win to get back on track.

Inconsistency is normal on a young team. I rather have inconsistency than incapability.
You either 'can' do it or you 'can'.

 

You're correct. That is to be expected on a young team like ours. Harden looked slow out there,which was a big factor too.
I think he hasn't completely recovered from that knee injury.

 

I hate these outlooks on games. We were alot better tonight overall

 

Think about this, majority of current Rockets roster have a chip on their shoulder already. Either with something to prove with themselves or to the NBA, and that makes for great "junkyard dog" team to watch. So with that in mind *uck you Comcast/Rockets! It takes two to tango, and to push majority of fans away like this is just pure shame.

Oh yeah on another note, this town is a championship city, so where are our trophies? In the past 2 yrs I have been to the Toyota center about 20 times and have yet to see our trophies. The power of walking into the Toyota center and seeing a trophy case displaying the pride and joy of a championship team, can create a monster of a sixth man.

 

Obviously.

 

Response

I disagree with you there, mainly because only Harden and Lin can create their shots or pass the ball. Now, Harden is better scorer and is more savvy than Lin. Parsons has a hard time creating his own shots. Lin will average 15 per game next season, wait and see. Lin needs to develop a better step and back jump shots and more consistent long jumpers during off-season. If he does this and Mac trusts him more, Lin will be a 17 points and 10 assists per game guy for Rockets -- basically an All-Star. Now, if Lin cannot improve during next season, I say trade him.

 

Finally over the hump! Very happy not only with the win but the way we won.

 

i laughed more than should have

 

So, if the Rocket's scored less...they would've scored less?
