ClutchFans Game Thread: Cavaliers @ Rockets 3/22/2013

it's not the star players I worry about, it's the scrubs on the other team that go off against us in these trap games.

 

Dont forget how ****ty we played against that joke of a depleted Minnesota team. Wonder if Minnesota fan boards bash Rubio as much as we bash Lin. And Rubio REALLY can't shoot.

 

They were all out against MIA too and they got up on them by 27. It will be a tough game. As long as the team is focused on the fact that they can't take them lightly we should win. We should put up around 110pts and win the shootout. I doubt if there will be much defense in this one.

 

Sorry for the doublepost.... I will be at this one having paid for tickets back when Kyrie was playing, lol. This will be my daughters first NBA game. Excited for her!

 

That's pretty awesome. Anyone notice Jeremy Lamb standing up in the background and grinning when Harden was shaking up Ibaka?

 

Must win.


I say that in every gam thread lmao.

 

"Jeremy Lin has received his fair share of criticism for his propensity to turn the ball over and his inconsistent perimeter jumper, but Houston's young point guard is doing much better in one of those areas as of late.

Lin's scored in double-digits in each of the Rockets' nine games this month, and his scoring is up to 16.9 PPG during that stretch. A big reason for that is his improved efficiency from the field.

Here's Seth Landman of ESPN's Fantasy Basketball Blog with more on Lin's recent improvement. "


Seth Landman
Lin's on fire from 3-point land
"Jeremy Lin has now scored 20-plus points in three straight games for the Rockets after Wednesday night's dismantling of the Jazz. Lin is averaging 18.6 points on 56.5 percent shooting over his past five games, but the most exciting thing about him of late is the fact that he's shooting 41 percent on 3-pointers since the All-Star break. The Rockets need him to be a capable spot-up shooter, and he's going to have even bigger fantasy value next season if he can keep making 3s."

 

Must win. Warriors play the wizards tomorrow, who then goes to LA to play the Lakers the night after. Can't see them stealing either game.

 

We need to win this game. 6th seed here we come!

 

So who is a superstar in this league beyond lebron then? Kobe is below avg defender now kd is avg at best if Irving and Harden are not superstar talent because of lack of d who is? Paul?

 

I think most people are joking around. And seriously Irving is good, very,very good.

 

Can't wait. First game I'm going to this season and I lucked into some 1st row seats. We better win this one.

 

Lin is a superstar....look at the direct tv nba pass...who's pictures are they using......how many articles are being written everyday about him....he's huge...

An if continues to pay le he is right nw he's an allstar

 

Trap game...

 

Lets try to predict the winner and margin of victory. Copy and paste this message and include your predictions.

My prediction: Rockets by 23.

 

SHOULD be a blowout win but you never know with this team... I'll take any wins though.

 

Rockets by 10.

 

Whatttt?? Kyrie not playing?
Stern must fine the Cavs heavily...

on the other hand, scrubs can be dangerous... This is starting to smell like Phoenix trap game again...

 

Does this count as a revenge game for Shaun Livingston?

 

Calm down, they are kidding now, relax, bro.
