ClutchFans Game Thread: Mavericks @ Rockets 11/22/2014

Canaan has to be out there to start the 2nd and 4th quarters when Harden is sitting, whether Dwight's in uniform or not. We nearly blew tonight and the Philly game and we did blow the Lakers game because we had massive scoring droughts. The only reason to ever insert Cisco is for defense on a single possession like at the end of the game on Ellis(in which he did an excellent job I might add).

 

did Parsons get that last shot off in time at the end of the game?

 

no, it was late.

 

No. Refs waived it off.

 

No because he pump faked

 

Too bad it would have lowered his percentages.

I think Chandler never thought the Rockets wouldn't match that offer, has a little buyer's remorse.

(besides that 16 million salary he's pulling in)

 

Ahahahaha *uck him

 

True but then when you go act like you are high and mighty and diss Houston and their basketball team, that doesn't sit well with us. Those smug pics of you signing in a night club doesn't help either

 

He's still dumb. We boo because of everything you said against the city.

We will boo you until you retire.

Superglad you helped us win tonight, bad game haha

 

Not sure if intentional or not, BUT... That ish IS funny

 

Lack of understanding and insight.
Much like Lebron's departure, we don't hate him for getting his money.
We boo him because we thought that he had more class than his actions showed.

 

I get the sense that Parsons legitimately misses playing for the Rockets and also really doesn't isn't keen to the idea of people not liking him.

 

Because Jalen knows it too.

I am fine with Parsons - I wish we would have kept him, but we are better on D with Ariza, so that is fine too.

I just wish the Rox never exposed him to the market if they were not going to match all offers.

Either way, whats done is done, I think both Dallas and Houston are very good this year.....if we can only stay healthy.

Tonight was a GUTSY win, almost makes up for blowing it against the putrid Lakers...ALMOST....but not quite...

Hey my post on here got featured on ESPN's comment section )

I think that too. Possibly the reason why he went into Mav's camp overweight for Carlise. ie, He was prepared to play PF for the Rockets.

 

Any win with Dwight Howard out is impressive, but to win by playing hardnosed defense is really a good sign. With the way the roster is right now, the Rockets are going as far as their defense will take them.
