ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Thunder 4/24/2013 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 2)

I am totally rooting for the rockets. Yea that was a stupid non-call. The refs tried to make it up by calling the 2 quick fouls, one on sefalosha and was it 2 by perkins right away? Anyways, Houston outrebounded them 57-40, and yet the Rockets still lost!?!?!?!?!

 

Beverley the new starting PG. IF Lin can't go who will start on Saturday? Rockets will take the next game, they have gained the much needed confidence. Now it is time for Red Nation to come out and show OKC that they can be as loud as their fans.

 

Very good game tonight. Very proud of the team.

 

Welp, back to H-town the great town.

Kudos to Bev and Harden... both had outstanding games.

 

can't wait for next game!

 

Good game. They put up a fight.

 

Well... he quite literally was non-existent in the playoffs last year.

 

its hard when the refs dont call a bunch of pivotal calls. Rockts had a chance and that is big going forward. if Harden hits the FTs we know he can hit, Greg smith doesnt get a T, Asik get a couple dunks, and Sisco doesn't miss the T, we in it!

 

Also Perkins holding Parson's hand while Lin was out was definitely a momentum changer.

 

And both times the team lost! LOL...

 

Exciting game and what a heartbreaking loss… Everyone gave a huge effort. Nice move by coaching to move Harden and Lin out on the lineup and Bev into the point. Also nice move to go zone.

I’m glad Asik finally had a great effort in the 2nd half. Beverley is by far the player of the game for Houston, amazing effort by him all around! Now that OKC has seen how disruptive Beverley is and the small ball lineup, it’ll be interesting to see how OKC makes adjustments for the next game.

Hopefully it’s not a serious injury for Lin. He needs to come back for the home games.

 

Great game. Hats off to OKC and our guys.

 

This is right up there with the Michael Finley stepping out of bounds. Right behind Malone's ****ing bear hug on Drexler.

 

Great effort Rockets. We still could've used Lin because Brooks was awful and we had too many bad possessions. Maybe we would've won with him.

Gotta do better than 10-33 from deep. Very impressed with our rebounding and offensive rebounds in particular. That said, we gave up a lot of OKC offensive rebounds from their threes. Punishment for going zone.

 

all comes down to a bunch of no calls. westbrook getting away with 3 charges and that hold on perk.

all is right in stern land

 

Very good game if the refs catch the hold on Perkins that would of been a turn over and rockets might have a victory tonight but o well good game and by the way Perkins is a straight b:;() for that hold

 

Typical officiating today...Great game, would've been better if the officials called it fair.

 

I'm really proud of the Rockets. Coming back after that Game 1, and really taking it to the Thunder in this game, and in OKC.

 

Thunder all but handed us this game. While I'm disappointed that we couldn't capitalize, I'm proud of this team and excited for Game 3.

We missed so many open shots, so frustrating.

 

He needs to come out in the next game and start playing like Beverley.
