ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Clippers 2/26/2014

I think he's physically hurting. It's one thing to miss shots and be in a shooting slump but another to look and play like a totally different player than just two weeks ago. The only logical explanation to the loss of physical ability is injury. Obviously not severe enough to sit out but it's bothering him nonetheless.

Saw a few pics of a friend who got court side seats today and in one of them it looks like Lin was doing some squating/lower back stretches during the game, for what it's worth.

 

Oh please let me answer this . For one thing, NEW, He is not a starter and he is not the go to guy. He is a bench player with limited minutes. I think you are just a TROLL.

 

And yet McHale just kept riding him in this game? How observant of him?

 

Don't know what is going on with him. Earlier in the season, dude was double-double machine with timely blocks, with end-to-end runs for dunks, and now looks like a damn zombie. It is not only this game, so this is not likely to be a knee-jerk reaction.

 

Wow, Granger has already agreed to sign with Clippers. What was Morey doing? Watching television at home????I am pissed off!!!

 

Maybe Granger was like "I go to he winner of this Rockets Vs Clippers game".

 

I don't even know how would this work, but how about a lineup with both Parsons and Jordan Hamilton with the latter playing stretch 4? If Delfino, at times, played that role for us last year, I don't see why Hamilton could not do it. He is bigger, taller, and lengthier with a knack for getting rebounds.

I think the above could work against most teams, except Memphis.

 

I called it.

He wasn't moving well at all. Something was deff. wrong.

 

Source? The latest I can find on ESPN says he is leaning toward the Clippers but will meet with all teams before deciding.

 

LOL! Best post of the night!

 

Most PGs will be useless if they don't play PnR. This one is on McHale.

I suspect this is also why we are seeing Lowry and Dragic playing much better now than when they were in Rox uniform.

 

At least that explains his atrocious shooting tonight. He hasn't been this bad for quite some time.

 

Lowry and Dragic (when he started) were damn good with the Rockets.

 

Did this one get called?

 

THe Spurs were 3-11 against the top 5 teams in the West and the top two in the East.

They have a perfect winning record against all other playoff teams in the league except the recent loss to the Suns. This is why they are still #2 in the WC.

 

They were good then. But are they even better now to near All-Star level?

 

I think Harden wanted to as always and has played PG tonight. It's just that he was not good enough to do better than 3 assists and 6 turnovers against a good team.

 

Remember folks, players here are only as good as their last game.

Unless of course you have some type of agenda and certain players are always bad...

 

one game from the newbie and you're going to sacrifice Parsons, already?

good grief, can we get a larger sample size?

don't be a knee, jerk.

 

Within the rockets style of uptempo play a lot of average scorers become above average scorers... put Parsons on another team with a slower paced system he may look more like a Trevor Ariza type.
