ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Pacers 12/20/2013

I wish some of you would stick to math...

 

and here we go!

 

Enough's enough. I'm turning this off.

 

apart from our starters? you mean the bench?

 

Horrible loss, but our roster isn't complete.
More upset about the SAC, PHX, PHI games.

 

No, we need to be real men to play this tipe of game. Only Howard step up, the rest of the team play bad, and the bench, well the bench really need to improve.

 

Or maybe Aaron Brooks? It's not like we need "lock down defense" on George Hill.

 

I love reading the message boards here when we're losing. Yes, we're losing the game and getting blown out, it happens. In the NBA, you can't have a stacked team from top to bottom, some teams are gonna present match up problems for the Rockets, I'm just glad the Pacers are in the east.

 

GTFO don't start that Lin crap his drives to the paint would get blocked all night

 

Yup, bad coaching, harden selfish stat padding, looking for fouls playstyle and no PG will do that to you.

 

why do the pacers try on defense? it's just the regular season, pacers. totally not fair!

 

So glad I stopped watching at the half.

 

lol... thought that would bring our players closer like last season .

 

asik and Lin need to stop with their vaginitis and sitting out every damn time. Guys are too fragile to be playing in the NBA.

 

For the most part, this has been the most disappointing season in many, many years for me.

I've had to emotionally distance myself from this team cause I couldn't stand having my guts ripped out game after game watching them underperform.

TBH, the high point was the last day of camp. We had beaten this same Indiana team twice on a neutral court, had whipped the Spurs on their home court and looked to be clicking.

Now I spend most games just SMH at the horrible play.

I can deal with losing. Underachieving...I have a very difficult time with.

Sorry for the rant. Had to say something to someone who would understand.

 

I know Harden is playing on a bum ankle and the adrenaline of the Chicago game seems to have worn off; but there is a definite listlessness about him this season.

Add that with a horrific coach...

They should have traded Asik in the summer...

We have no real power forward....

It's really painful watching the Pacers laughing while humiliating our team.

Completely wasted Howard's effort tonight.

We definitely need a real point guard. If there has to be a shakeup to even out the lineup, probably in the off-season, I won't cry about it.

 

I hate it when people try to find excuses for a performance like that. Yeah, maybe we're a work in process. Yeah, Asik and Lin are out and Harden is playing with a sprained ankle. I get that. But still, the Pacers are completely destroying us right now. This could really, really ugly, and that's frightening considering the Rockets are already down 30. In short, no excuse for that performance. We are simply not contenders. Let's make the playoffs first and go from there.

 

Casspi is playing dumb, driving and kicking the ball out without looking where the opposing defense is set. Genius..

Can anyone score? We've been stuck at 67 for god knows how long.

 

It's not about the results. It's about how the teams play the game. It is a matter of if there is a well coached system that the team can execute or a well trained defense . I don't see any in the rockets team and the coach don't have the ability to make real time adjustments in game.

 

Not a fan of the NBA. Just rockets.
