ClutchFans Game Thread: Grizzlies @ Rockets 1/24/2014

WOW, People blame this loss on Bev? Seriously? This game would have been a win with a average good coach.

 

We really ticks me tonight is the Griz run plays and plays to get easy shots and we are clueless. WTF do we run? It's too easy of a paycheck for McHale. We are much better than this shiat.

 

I think he recorded that statement last year and just plays the recording at press conferences

 

That would help him stay on the floor like Bev does, but I'm skeptical he'd shine like he is on the Suns. Harden is just too ball dominant, and I really doubt his ego would defer to the likes of Dragic.

The system here also runs almost no picks or screens, which is what Dragic is thriving on in Phoenix. They run multiple picks for him often in one possession.

 

I blame this game on Lin for not being there to finish the game.

 

" PLAY HARDER , PASS HARDER , SHOOT HARDER" Something like that smh I still cant get over this 1 I need these sleeping pills to kick in im still smfh

 

I've always thought that for Lin to fail would be to validate McH/Sampson's
initial opinion of Lin.
Which is why they let him go the first time.

They didnt he was good enough to even keep a place at the end of the bench then.
I dont think much has changed.

 

its never mchale's fault. it was parsons, the guy who broke the rockets record for 3pters in one game!

 

I think Rubio is playing so bad this year he is thinking of retiring saying he doesn.t love playing right now

 

I don't understand what Parson's shooting proficiency has to do with his inability to deal with a double team

 

I really doubt it. I've seen an agenda this season, from coaching staff down to the announcing team.

Drexler clowns on Lin even when he's having a GOOD game as does the rest of the announcing team, while praising every little thing Bev does.

I honestly think Morey is setting up a trade and they want to prop Beverley up so as to avoid criticism.

 

Those stats dont prove anything. Look at the stats for the Clippers and OKC. It essentially shows the Clippers have a better net rating starting Collison over CP3. And the Thunder have a better net rating starting Reggie Jackson over Westbrook!! And it's not even close, net rating with Jackson 10.8...net rating with Westbrook...-5.7!! Perhaps Russell should come off the bench when healthy!!! And he was balling when he was on the floor, think he had a triple double before his latest surgery.

Why did McHale assume that just because Parsons was hot from 3 all of a sudden he was our best option as a PnR ball-handler?

I don't understand that call at all.

 

Shoulda never gave that &*&% money!!!!!
Talking bout Mcfail

 

I don't think people blame Bev everyone has a bad shooting night but he should of been benched in the 4th

 

Just finished the game.

Parsons had a great game, but that was a bad decision by him to pass to Bev, who had a bad offensive night. But at the end it still came down to Mchale's lack of running good plays. He seriously needs to go at the end of the season.

 

ur missing the point

 

Rubio ain't going nowhere. I mean nowhere with his career. The guy's confidence might even be lower than Jeremy Lin right now and that's pretty bad. As bad as Jeremy might be, I would not do a straight trade.

 

Yeah, these stats are empty when you don't apply context and situation and the human factor. Which are all things you cannot boil down to numbers unless you are a genius savant of both basketball math and human interaction and circumstance.

 

THIS! We have 3 good PG's - use them! WHen Bev or Lin are obviously not shooting well they should be benched, or at least on the offensive plays with a game on the line.
