ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Blazers 11/5/2013

I will say at least 20 more games or so. Got to give it time Mario to build up chemistry.

 

These guys are going to get a pissed off Rockets team. Im hoping that carries into Thursday and Saturday. Matter of fact I hope it carries on for the rest of the season.

 

Our starters get off to too slow of a start. Need a change.

 

it won't carry them for the rest of the season..it is a long year.

id rather lose now, bad, and learn from it.

losing last night might do more good for us than winning. if we had won it would've gone to our head

 

James, please play defense. Please?

Dwight, please run the pick and roll more with James. Please?

Jeremy, please stay aggressive. Please?

Chandler, please put some more arc on those jumpers. Please?

Everyone, please work on your post entry pass and lob passes. Give the ball to Dwight right away on those early seals in the paint. Please?

 

I predicted a loss and I'm sticking by it.

 

Going to be really disappointed if the team doesn't come out with some fire after last night's debacle. I want to see a huge defense effort and lots of running the court.

 

No, H&H suck currently (mentally) and they are still going to play. The team has to win despite them but that would require Casspi and Lin to be on top of their game. And I just don't expect that to happen because Casspi hasn't adjusted to increasing minutes and Lin's drop in performance on B2B and road game is well documented. On the 2nd night of a B2B, I expect Casspi's 3 pointers to fall short. Lin, given his foul trouble against the Clippers, he is not going to be aggressive.

 

All NBA players have pride. A team as talented as the Rockets will come out smoking out of the gate, foaming at the mouth, seeking to redeem themselves.

Ps. Parsons better find that Batum guy and stick to him.

 

LOL already Spark

 

LMAO What up pimpn!

 

Man out here working and maintaining.

What it do big Homie.

 

Don't have a good feeling about this one. We have started slow with the TT in EVERY game, I expect this game to be no different.

 

Rockets come out mad and win this by 20.

 

a 9 pm start is better than a 9:40 ish start.

if we win tonight, we leave with a victory.

 

4th game in 5 nights.. This could get ugly. Hope we could somehow get a W here.

 

They'll come out making turnovers looking like they are still adjusting to each other especially with Lin at the point. Plus Portland is tough to beat at home. I say Rockets win by 2 points in a close game.

 

Nice to have a game right away to take away the bad taste of last night game. IF these are not the same old Rockets, they will win tonight.

 

dafuq is with this scheduling?

 

I expect shut down defense tonight.

And sorry, Lillard is good, but cmon now...
