ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Kings 12/15/2013

Any word on when McHale returns? Can't watch too more of Sampson.

 

Ugly game

 

Why a lot of injuries? Every game, a different player seems to get injured. Stupid.

 

last year PBEV was in the Euro league. That was where Beverly was. He far from a proven commodity in the league Beverly is. Lin was questioned heavily during the knicks tenure. He proved that he could play by repeating his performance as a rocket, with limited minutes and with harden taking over the PG role and spotlight.

 

Not only that- you have to realize that Curry and Thompson both were playing with 5 fouls so they couldn't play aggressive defensively on Bev- that's why he was able to generate more offense. But credit to Beverley- he did make the most of the opportunity and hit his shots.

 

I didn't see the game, midterms, but I heard Harden shot free throws with one leg, any video?

 

I have no idea how George gets mentioned, he's no playmaker whatsoever. He might develop to a reasonable level like Durant (and Durant's is more reminiscent of Kobe, recognising when defenses break down, not actually having the goal to make a play but that's fine, he's the best scorer in the league) has but right now, not even close.

Lin is an average playmaker at best, but he's a good scorer (his higher than average PER right now is coming exclusively from his scoring efficiency)

 

Bev is still inconsistent on offense.

 

The Rockets are still learning one another so they will lose quiet a few games like this. The Heat started off below .500 when the big 3 were formed. We are still working on CHEMISTRY. It might take a full season to build a championship level chemistry. All those western conference teams you mentioned core players been together more than 2 years.

 

Wow dude. GTFO

 

In your eyes. But i'll take my chances with my own eyes and his good PER and penetration rates. You are probably right about PAul George, but he is a big difference maker and can be a prolific playmaker not quite Lebron but getting better every year.

 

no no no no no

NO

 

Did they lose the Jazz and the Kings during that first year together, the HEat that is? I think not. This is a breakdown in chemistry and coaching overall.

 

Fixed

Are not Or

Quite and not quiet...
bwhahahah typing to fast

 

The 60 games left we are 16-8 there is room for error right now. Clearly you and I won't agree. We will tit our stride and will make it past the first round.

 

no no

 

hmmm. Shump/fields/novak all performed better because of Lin's creation off the dribble and passing to them when they had leverage in their position. Fields is a slasher and succeeded when Lin gave Fields the ball at angles that Fields could attack in. Novak is a great shooter than needs some space to execute. And Shumpert is also a slasher with some shooting ability that had his best year, during his rookie season.

Paul George is an excellent player, I don't know why you think he's a NO in your estimation.

 

They lost to some ****ty teams. They have actually lost to some ****ty teams this year as well.

 

Best post I've seen all season

 

look at paul George's stats and the record for the Indiana Pacers.. Paul george might become 1st team ALL NBA this season. You need get your eyes checked.
