ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Clippers 5/8/2015 (Playoffs Round 2, Game 3)

Harden needs to come out shooting and set the tone and we need to play some damn defense. They should be getting no easy shots Rockets have their backs against the wall now so if they don't come out guns blazing their season will be over.

I would never root for the mavs... I just feel like going crazy like that r****ded mavs fan captain jackass

 

sorry mama 's boi james harden let u guys down. he doesnt want set the tone. they have best Defender JJ redneck.

 

That's not what I'm doing at all.

Did Harden play well? Nope. Was he the primary reason the Rockets lost like people are making him out to be? Nope.

It's not Harden's fault that McHale makes awful decisions, Smith can't finish at the rim, Brewer/Terry make moronic fouls, and the whole team not hitting a three or playing defense. Harden has a share of the blame, but in no way was he the problem tonight.

 

If we win game 4 we come home with a tied series.. I'll take it

 

Why are you still on here? I thought you wanted to delete ClutchFans.

 

Kind of daming a team can go on a 23-0 and not 1 TO has been called.

At least pretend to care mchale

 

No Doubt .. . . . They were excited with Paul back
To be expected
Let them blow their wad then gank them in Game 4

Where are those holier-than-thou clutchfans telling us we're irrational, we're pessimists, we don't love the Rockets!!! Most members on this forum have a heckuva lot more passion than this team has shown. They are an embarrassment to the city of Houston.

How the hell has Terrence never learned how to shoot?

How the hell does Dwight continue to regress on the FT line, and then let Deandre make him his b****??

How does Harden not EVER get fired up?? The self proclaimed MVP didnt have drive after Curry blew him out in the MVP Vote nor after his momma was disrespected!!!

Josh Smith either has streaks of greatness or he's the worst player in the NBA. Hes currently the latter.

AND WHERE IS THE HUSTLE AND EFFORT?? It's gone, it's all ducking gone. They all don't care from the coaching staff down to the players.

they need to fire Morey. analytics work on machine not human.

 

Seriously. Stop it. Did you play organized bball as a kid? Refs are a part of the game. They had 0 to do with this loss. Zip. ZILCH. NADA.

This actually makes me feel better. Now I don't have to rant, out loud or on here. Thank ya, man.

 

McHale quitting the pres conference like he quit the game

 

Is Dwight still on a minutes restriction?

At this point we have to consider playing him the full 48 minutes. The moment he went to the bench in the 3rd quarter, Clippers started their massive run

 

Mchale - "with the momentum comes the momentum goes baby"

 

But a timeout would entail McHale making some sort of change in strategy, be it a defensive adjustment or subbing in different players. He seems incapable of adapting in-game. He either waits til halftime or in this case til Game 3 is over since we were already in the 2nd half.

 

Dumb hot sports take goes to...

Yeah let's ignore we got to the 2 seed with Moreyball

 

It wasn't JVG's entire fault that we lost to the Mavs and the Jazz but he took responsibility and left.

It's the head coach's job to take the blame even if it were Harden's fault.

This is the norm.

 

i just wwant James harden remember this moment. this is just humiliating
