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

What's to be embarrassed about? The team is playing a b2b in a high altitude city against the Nuggets, who are a beastly team on any given night.

And we're still ahead of the Lakers by 3 games. Not to mention the remainder of our schedule looks relatively easy save for the Grizzlies.

 

Why do I have a feeling that the bench isn't trying to grab this opportunity to show how good they are? They're playing like crap and without energy.

 

Pretty much.

I don't see us winning a playoff game on the road if we play Denver, Memphis, or OKC.

 

Yea but they aren't coming back. Or at least Galo isn't . Thats the thing. WIth Galo they are MUCH better but he is out.

 

altitude.tv. no sh.it

 

He looked lost out there and has been like that for many games.

 

^^^this....what the hell??..Denver got to have the biggest homecourt advantage in the league with the altitude and 11 home games off back 2 backs that's f***** insane...

 

Agree. Can not finish under the rim, can not shoot FTs, has no jumper, WOW.

 

Truth.

 

Dang~ Nuggets are so athletic. Their bigs murdered is today on the glass. I wish McGsje had brought in Asik late in the 3rd but it probably wouldn't have made a difference. I still ain't scared of the Nuggets but dang their bugs are ridiculous. Faried and Iggy were phenomenal today we just didn't bring it defensively and on the boards and they murdered us. We missed Chandler but this game was a loss either way. The only person who could've helped today was a hot Harden but those bigs may have murdered us anyways. It's all good. Can't win every game. See you guys in the next thread.

Btw PLEASE don't bash our best player!!!! Hardens ability to cause free throws is like a super power and a prerequisite to being a superstar. People bashing Harden for that dont understand basketball and makes you look loke r****ded haters. And even his bad games are pretty good by normal standards. We're just spoiled. We need help in the PF position and especially the backup 5 obviously of we wanna contend in the future. Get er done Morey!!

we still good I see alot of people crying as usual

 

Dmo you pile of....

 

DMO! *shakes my head*

 

Don't really want the third seed anymore if it means playing against Denver, so loosing this game isn't that bad anymore lol. Anyhow hope the Spurs get second instead of OKC, our best chance seems to be against them if Ginoblli remains out. Starters could probably get some well deserved rest as well once we clinch.

 

Motiejunas is just so lost.

 

If Brooks ever wants to get playing time he needs to shoot a lot more.

 

I understand what you mean, but we just didn't lose. We got blown out. I would be embarrassed by any blow out. It means you weren't ready to compete, back to back or not. That's not the mentality you want.

 

This game also shows what a huge liability the front court is.

 

Dmo is punking the rockets. He has to be.
