ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Mavericks 4/26/2015 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 4)

Who cares. It doesn't even matter what those clowns think.

 

Dwight has to come out and control the boards again. He has to play his game.

Harden has to come out and attack, no waiting on the rest to do it.

The whole team has to rebound, no more letting them get 10 offensive boards in a freaking half.

Slow the game down, they can't play with us half court and we don't want to run with them on defense.

 

Bev's defense is obviously far better than Terry/Pablo's, but the Rockets giving up 120 a game is unacceptable regardless who's out there. The entire team is mailing it in on that end.

 

That's what we all want. McHale took a chance on Capela, maybe he'll take a chance on Nick Johnson too.

 

nah the effort on defense is terrible, no boxing out, no rebounding

those transition baskets are mainly from guys being lost on defensive rotations, which shouldn't happen

defense needs to be fixed

 

Harden going to take over 2nd half, as he did all season long. Smith and Dwight going to step it up on defense. A little lob city. And then boom, a sweep.

 

i want it to stay close and have harden with a step daddy at the buzzer

 

Amen, do not want to see him shoot another shot even if he is open, turrible...

 

I think dwight was playing conservative to avoid fouls

 

I agree but I hate giving the Mavs confidence. We had them down and for the taking in the first quarter, then we let up.

Not expecting this team to be up 20 but a little more intensity would be nice, especially on defense.

 

We've played 3 near perfect 2nd halves so far. They're in there making the necessary adjustments and the shots will start to fall. Once again, that's the best dallas has and we're still right there.

 

2nd half will tell us a lot about the team. Important game let's see if they can simply put forth effort.

 

Yep he has but their not good 3 point shooters.Our pick and rolls, motion offense is gone. We are playing moreyball. Stand still shooters and Harden doing his thing.

 

Shaq is right though...Dwight absolutely,positively DID disappear. Lost intensity without a question.

 

Yeah, well we've been preaching for defense all series it hasn't happened yet, no reason it's going to happen this game. :grin:

Just gotta outscore them again.

 

Mavs see their chance to create history from our poor defense effort.

 

He's doing better than Terry

 

Who handles the ball on offense? Who shoots 3's?

 

Let's go Rockets! We got this!!!

 

Reggie Miller = tough guy, LOL.
