ClutchFans Game Thread: Pelicans @ Rockets 10/5/2013 (PRESEASON)

I guess his new trainer worked, I saw a training video with him and it looked god but I thought thats probably what he always does, maybe it was diffferent. Lets hope this keeps up we need a Delfino replacement.

 

Lmao, badass irrelevant dunk to end the game. But really, who would want to play OT in a preseason game? If i were a player i would miss on purpose

 

Did Howard get ejected ?

 

No offense, but I totally disagree. If that were the case, most people in Israel today are not Jews. Only a minority even pretend to be religious. Orthodox Judaism is a small minority worldwide. Judaism involves ethnicity not just religion. Since the Jewish people have been so dispersed around the world for so many years, the governing body of Israel has ruled that anyone is a Jew who says they are a Jew.

As to Rockets game, there was a lot to like. I thought the starting lineup looked really good. When everyone is healthy, the second team is going to be much better.

 

Casspi blows.
0/1 on game winning shots

 

T.Jones plays like an Allstar. Dmo plays like a scrub.

 

Brewer played 20 minutes and took only 1 shot?

 

Anthony Morrow got 26 and Rivers with 21

So not the normal world for NO either

 

we don't watch stats, we watch the game. when we needed him to do something good, he was negative.

he even lost the ball just standing there. he has no energy at all. disappointing. TJones definitely outplayed him

 

I bet if T Jones was playing D-Mo's minutes with the starters his +/- would be better

 

I thought Dmo played pretty good except at the end.

 

Yup.....he'll be more efficient with his shots...and D Howard will give him quick assists. I hope he gets to play more minutes, but that spot is so competitive so matchup is going to be a key factor.

 

Starters did good
Lin improved on defense
Harden hit some good 3's and played good defense
Parsons didn't do much
Beverly locked down Jrue
Howard looked great
Casspi is Delfino 2.0
D-Mo didn't do much
Jones did ok
Others did ehh
Overall

 

Biggest disappointment of the night: D-Mo...by far

Biggest surprise of the night: Casspi...where the hell did all of that come from!

Harden, Lin, Howard, Jones, Parsons, Beverly all had good moments.

Brewer did absolutely nothing in 20 minutes. That's pretty damn hard to do.

 

That's just idiotic.

 

Losing this winnable game kinda sucks but it's just pre season and Rockets bench defense will be dominate with Asik back. What is wrong with D-Mo though? Dude just terrible.

 

And two ugly free throws

 

I am a Jew. This sounds about right, I identify more with the culture than the religion like most Jews now-a-days.

 

He's 22 years old. Also big men take longer to develop. With his passing and ball movement he makes Dwight and Harden better. Try for two seconds to think like a coach, not a like a fan.

 

Damn, I totally forgot about the game. Could someone give me a short breakdown?
