ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Grizzlies 3/29/2013

i thought we have beaten them already this season...so this statement is stupid

 

If Randolph is guarding Motiejunas, the Rockets should (but won't of course) work the ball in the post.

 

Has the makings of the pacers game with the grizz strong backcourt d and punishing big men tandem.

 

lin will prob score pretty well today and we win by 10

 

The Rockets will come out and stay strong led by the starting back court. Go Rockets! Kill the Grizzlies a team that should have never left Vancouver!

 

I don't care who had what just get this win

 

Feel bad for tonight, if we play the same like last game, we have no chance to win. Need to change the line up a little bit please coach.

 

Over/under 21 minutes for Lin tonight

 

Not a good feeling about this one. We lose 95-91 unless something streaky like Delfino + CP shooting well from 3 happens.

 

Harden, Parsons, DMo, and Lin will all probably have good games. I don't think Harden will have another 6/24 night. Also, in the preseason and two regular game matchups his stats are equally as good or better than Conley. If lin plays > 25 minutes then Houston is heading for a in.

 

All I know is that if he is over 21 minutes then it means the Rockets are playing well and pose a good chance of winning. If less then 21 minutes, it means bench playing time and Harden iso so probably means a loss.

 

With Gasol out and Arthur starting at Center, Asik should guard Randolph and DMo should guard Arthur

 

Gather yourselves and show them what you got. Go Rockets!

 

Tough 2 games for Harden.

Facing Paul George then Tony Allen, and both teams have big interior defenders.

Good games to learn from.

 

I hope lin can guard his own man

 

Rox are lucky that Tony Allen has no offensive game.

 

Why is gasol out? He played in their last game.

 

Abdominal tear...he may play still though. It's always an advantage when a key player is out, but at this time of the year it would be nice to face a full healthy solid team like Mempis so you can gauge where the team is at. Rockets most likely will be in the playoffs, but looking at their record against > .500 teams in the West it's not very good.

 

Any chance Bev will start over Lin in this game?

I'm really really hoping this happens. Tell that scrub Lin to sit his ass down whole game... because we all are SO EAGER and looking forward to Beverley's ascension to stardom. Bev, the much better player, will take us to next level that sorry ass scrub Lin never could.

I want to see iso-Harden all game. I want to see Asik have 0pts and 15 rebounds every game, and other bigs be strictly rebounders & screeners, they get no ball touches. If the Rockets play this style in the dark with lights out, and you have infrared goggles, you should be able to see only Harden in red because he'd be the only one having warm temperature in his body, the other players cannot be seen coz they're too cold, never touching the ball.

I cannot wait for this Rockets basketball. It'll be fun.

 

I would really like to see Beverly start over Lin this game. Not because I think Beverly is the better player, but I want the public to notice Mchale and him not putting trust in Lin. What's the point of starting if you're gonna get less minutes than your backup?

Mchale, if you're going to put down Lin (for whatever reason), man up and start Beverly.
