ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Nuggets 4/6/2013

You're a DOF lol. He has been atrocious.

 

I really miss that 12 pt lead

 

I would rather rest lin today. His arms and knees hurt recently and
need rect

 

When they had Galo they were perfectly balanced and a non-stop threat. Chandler and Brewer seem to be stepping up but I doubt they maintain this.

 

Damn, I want a win. Don't see it happening though.

 

get a life:grin:

 

Dmo has been mostly terrible. Hope he steps up.

 

They have similar shooting stroke

 

Just no double team or help when Miller tries to post up Lin. Extra help has cost us at least 2 open 3s. Miller can't beat Lin in the low post, even though he goes by or post up harden with ease.

 

Still can't believe the garbage Astros are favored over this Rockets team. Smh.

 

coz he can't stop that white dude somehow for some reason.

 

He's putting the team on his back cuz everyone else is doing jack.

 

It's Denver we are playing against, they are no push-over. The Rockets were fortunate to have that 12 pt buffer. Only down by 8, lots of time to recover.

 

I think this is a good experience for these guys. Even if he has sore arms and knees he needs to play through this.

 

Asik generally is passing midcourt with17 seconds left on the shot clock....not just here tonight but most games. The dunks coming down the middle of the defense should be defended with a come on in here but you;ll know I'm here attitude.Instead a lot of stepping back and giving up slam dunks.

 

Before Gallo got hurt I thought that if we played Denver we would get swept in the playoffs. The problem is that they are a matchup nightmare.

Whatever the Rockets' gameplan is, the Nuggets have been attempting that for years. They never had a superstar of Harden's quality, but they have a ton of vets now in their primes, guys with limited ceilings but still of borderline all-star capabilities who are now 26-30 years old. They won't make mistakes that the talented-but-young Rockets will, and they will exploit every one of our tendencies because they are so familiar with our style of play.

Now that Gallo is out, we might have a better shot, but I still think we would lose in a 7 game series. George Karl is a dirty, but good coach. I've hated him since '94. Freaking Hoggish Greedly.

 

I'd say Chandler was even more of a consistent threat than Gallo. And I'm not worried about Brewer's offense, this guy disrupts so much on D, along with Iguodala and Faried, so much activity.

This is a game perfect for T-Rob, I hope he gets some burn in the 2nd half.

 

alright we get the lead back after 17 points from harden in the 3rd.

 

As I said, he did not guard Iggy all the time. So to say that all 12 points that Iggy scored was as a result of Harden...

He wasn't really on Iguodala much the 2nd qtr.

Any ways you can't beat denver hoisting up threes and playing careless...which is how we play. We have to slow it down more to beat them. We can't beat them in a wild fast paced game...which is too bad because that's how we play too but they are better at it.

 

What do the rockets need to do to win this game in the second half?
