ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Warriors 3/8/2013

Horrible end to the 1st quarter, with two bad plays in a row to end it, by TRob and then Harden. In addition, Harden misses a wide open Lin on the right during his last fastbreak.

I was starting to get worried again thinking coaching was going to keep Beverley in for the bulk of the 2nd quarter. Glad it didn’t happen. Things turned around when Lin came back in halfway through the 2nd quarter which gave Houston their 4 real starters + Defino, which not only helped the ball move more, but took pressure off of Harden and put in more firepower. Harden with another crappy shooting game, but doing great on other aspects. Lin played great defense against Curry for the latter half of the 2nd.

Something that really should happen so much: Delfino getting caught at the top of the key trying to make the deep pass into the paint. Two tries in the 2nd quarter, both bad.

 

if true. thats nutes. I'm starting to trust parsons shot up there with hardens.

 

Looks like they were all sharing the ball after McHale made Harden stop iso'ing.

 

espn giving props to parson

 

It's his 2nd or 3rd game back after being out several weeks.

 

What is up with hating on players?

Robinson is a role player right now, it's not much of his sole fault.

The Rocket would have a double digit lead if Harden-Asik-Lin came out playing like they are playing now.

Yall act like these role players like Patterson and Robinson have that much affect on games, it's always about your best player. They have to bring it, what you get from a guy like Robinson is a bonus, not a necessary.

 

Parson getting his due props on national TV.

 

So can we get JVG to go into the locker room and coach a little defense? I'm sure him coaching on the fly is still better than anything Sampson comes up with.

Still amazed we got the lead. Chandler Parsons. What a steal. Raptors have the lead at halftime too.

 

He's had some great games lately.

 

Magic: Who is Chandler Parsons?

Wilbon: "We've been sending Daryl Morey love. He better send us love back this way."

Really? Maybe Simmons?

 

Only at the cost of his immortal soul.

 

He must feel extra bad when he blows those finishes, guy works hard.

 

Parsons better not be traded.

 

Our FG% is 36%. sigh

 

Another reason why benching omer was dumb. We run teams out of the building with asik and somehow mchale dosnt think he can keep up with dallas???

 

David Lee being out of the game is definitely the key to the game. He was killing our forwards.

 

asik is great. i wish he could make layups and fts to make his stats look much better.

 

Parsons 18 pts, Delfino 12 pts

 

True - Harden is 1-8, but at least he's assisting like a demon.
