ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Grizzlies 11/25/2013

Asik is the one that wants out if hes willing to back up Dwight and be happy about it Im sure us Rockets fans would be glad if he stayed

 

Yes because the honeymoon won't last.

 

Great game gents, we got a nice bench. AB was a mess but Garcia woke up and Casspi was bossin along with Asik. CP and Bev did great with consecutive buckets.

When Dwight is on the floor, it seems like they're trying to force feed him too much. Need some flow with other plays other than Dwight in the post. His post position is way to far out, needs to work on getting closer.

 

True. If the Grizzlies made a strong comeback, McHale might have make some substitution. That wasn't the case, so it was right to stick with what he's got on the court.

 

Houston surely bricking 3s. Otherwise, this would have been a blowout win.

 

At least Harden's ISOs are watchable. Howard's post game is as graceful as a dancing in ski boots.

 

Yeah TJones didn't really get the chance, but as said before, its not about distributing minutes to players. Coach made that clear by not putting howard back in. We ran with the hot hand either that be Bev, Lin, Casspi, Garcia, if someone is showing they came to play, or a lineup is showing more promise and push. roll with whats working. Can't fall back on your starters or certain players and expect them to all a sudden turn hot.

 

No, team is better with coach making better timely rotation decisions.

 

Not the Lin fans, but trolls pretending to be his fans. Don't fall for it man.

 

almost 6 players in double digits if only bev got one more pt.

 

Now wait, did y'all see Jeremy shove Coach McHale? he was like dang Coach give it up, this game is over. STFU so we can leave.
Harden also had to pull Garcia who was still throwing the ref a death glare like he got fouled out in game 7 at the Finals.

I can forgive the 2nd quarter after that beautiful 2nd Half.
Defense was real good throughout imo.

 

Exactly. It doesn't matter what we want, Asik has demanded a trade and he will refuse to play if we don't give him one by the trade deadline.

 

make that 2 games, and minny is not a bad team

 

happy result, the bench showed their heart! Great team ball!

 

I thought at the beginning of the season our starting unit would be top 4 or 5 but our bench would be #1 and most likely better than most starting units.

 

Post game McHale interview link?

 

Who said that? In my opinion, if JH is back, he plays defense and we play team balls, this team is scary. Oh, DH, pls. stop post up all the time (it is so predictable). Come out and set some picks. So you can receive balls on the move, which will make you more difficult to guard.

 

We are good if the ball doesn't disappear in the post or gets stuck in someone's beard.

 

Dwight's post moves are FAR worse since he gets them force fed when they're not even vaguely necessary.

At least Harden's Iso's tend to mainly be end of quarter/4th quarter affairs.

Harden just needs to be reigned in, Dwight needs to be re-tooled...

 

Yeah Lin played a great 3 quarters then the bench brigade came in and brought us home. No need to screw with the momentum they had going and it proved to be the right move
