ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Thunder 12/29/2013

IDK how in today's league that isn't a tech foul.

 

I know one thing Harden and Co. better bring it to them in the Yota.

 

We're just not on their level yet, no excuses.

 

HE CAN'T STOP ME!
THIS IS MY CITY!

Durant loves playing the Rockets. :grin:

We beat them in our last regular season against them Harden went off for 40+. We also played them pretty well in the post season. We just didnt step up to the challenge last night. Maybe it was fatigue after playing 4 games in 5 nights.

 

we can challenge them at home

 

Well since we are into excuses it seems, that they already have an excuse for that one, its another B2B.

 

Just another game and Harden can't make it too personal where it affects him negatively. He could go out there and play well, but not force anything. They may game plan completely differently for the next game. It'll be interesting.

 

We survived the drubbing IND gave us. We'll survive this one too.

Let's see how long OKC can stave off the losses without Westbrook. Or how fresh Durant will be later in the season if he has to carry the team.

 

They'll be fine. The only team that threatens them is Portland. We are not a threat and we are not ready for prime time.

 

Oh, I know we're not contenders this year.

POR is their next game. I'm also talking about the Heat and Pacers.

 

Good luck with 8 men rotation and near max minutes to harden Haward and parson

 

So, Durant is confirming reports that he wants to play in Houston, right?

 

Maybe he is saying he wants to be a rocket one day.:grin:

 

rofl was thinking same. KD let one slip in the heat of the moment. He secretly wants to play with harden again

And I wasn't saying I wanted Jamison, Wallace or Brand either. They are all too old and washed up now. But someone in that stage of their career where they aren't too far removed from being superstar and can contribute 20 or so minutes a game would be ideal. I think Amare fits the bill if he can stay healthy but that's a big gamble. Bynum would've if he could've recovered but even when he played this season he was mediocre at best.

If Granger looks like he is over his injuries, that would be a good fit too for us.

 

Same thing after every loss: ball got sticky, gotta move the ball, no flow

Here's an idea: stop talking about it after every loss and just do it.

And the biggest ball-stopper talking about "we" again.

:grin:

I think the question is, does Harden+DH gets more touches than WB. I think if Harden+DH hold the ball even more than WB, I doubt Durant would want to play in Houston.

 

Glad you pointed out Harden's stats too b/c I went back and looked that up too. The difference to me was that Harden just didn't seem to give a #$*% right from the get go. Maybe he was trying to hard against his old team but not even trying to D up Sefolosha (who had already hit one 3 off of you a minute before) and daring him to shoot??? Pathetic. And frankly, when your superstar plays like that it demotivates the rest of the team.
