ClutchFans Game Thread: Thunder @ Rockets 4/27/2013 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 3)

Lucky roll for kd Lang. Otherwise, we win.

 

We just have a severe lack of talent. Delfino, Garcia and Beverley are needed to do too much for us to be good in the playoffs. Hopefully we address that talent gap soon.

 

Love Harden, but it's about time people realize his **** don't smell like roses.

 

F**K YOU JAMES HARDEN TONIGHT YOU ARE A B**CH!!! YOU ARE A CHOKE ARTIST WITH NO HEART!!!!

AND I DONT WANNA HEAR ABOUT GOOD JOB ROCKETS FOR HANGIN IN THERE AND FIGHTIN BACK !!!! NO GOLDSTARS FOR 2ND F**KIN LOSERS !!!!!'

 

give harden a full training camp then i'll start trusting Harden down the stretch




welp......, here's to next year

 

Rockets two turnovers in a row, Harden missed 2 key fts....part of being a young team.

 

That shot by Durant was such a tease. It's not fair.

 

It is pretty pathetic. Yeah he made some mistakes in the end there but people act like other players do not?

Chris Paul stunk it up today yall...Chris Paul. So have some sense.

 

I'd say though when we're missing 3s this bad and Ibaka is waiting at the rim, we should have other options for a mid-range game.

We missed GSmith running those pnrs a lot.

But mercifully, this series will end soon.

 

Ibaka is a stud. He had two huge makes off of offensive rebounds. He's going to emerge as a bonafide star in these playoffs.

 

Greg Smith having the flu was critical, he is another physical big who might could have helped with Ibaka.

 

I don't blame McHale for leaving Beverley on the bench. He stuck with the squad that brought the Rockets all the way back to lead the game(albeit briefly). Do you really take Delfino, Parsons, or Garcia out after each of them hit huge 3-pointers in the 4th quarter? And you obviously have to have Asik out there to haul in rebounds and play D. And despite his sh-tty play down the stretch, you can't bench Harden in a damn playoff game.

 

The Rockets and My Wife are the only two things that can cause me to change mood so rapidly.

 

I'm proud of the Rockets for coming back but there is no excuse for falling behind 48-26. Without the deep hole, Rockets win by 10+ points.

 

if harden didnt make that no look pass and the other pass to fishhead we would of won. those were not even pressured passes.

 

Brent's great

 

I don't think McHale trusts Bev on the offensive end.

 

Lin could've help but this guy is snake bitten in his young basketball career.

 

the ball movement was the reason that they came back from the deficit. Once they tied, they went iso. Seriously, there was a ton of fail down the stretch. Colossal fail.

 

cause you're the freaking super star!! WHat bonehead play did Garcia make down the stretch? He hit the freaking shot to give them the lead, and his defense on Durant is what got them back in the game in the 1st place.

Harden missed too many ft's and I can live with charges as turnovers, but a careless no look pass that goes out of bounds...then he threw it right to FIsher, and that pass would've gone freaking out of bounds any way. Not to mention everyone walking by him on defense the whole night.
