ClutchFans Game Thread: Clippers @ Rockets 5/12/2015 (Playoffs Round 2, Game 5)

change the starting lineup? he won't even change his rigid substitution patterns, which always occur at the same exact clock time in every game regardless of situation :grin:

 

Changing the starting lineup forces him to change his sub patterns. Coaching 101 McHale no comprehend.

 

Because Griffin

 

i wonder if harden will rest the first 5min of the 2nd Q tonite -- we need to save his legs for the preseason you know!

 

Austin Rivers may be the reason why the Clippers are in the second round, anyone remember his game 4 performance of the Spurs series where he hit 7-8 from the field ?

 

I really hope we see a different team out there. If not I'm gonna be so disappointed.

 

I feel like if we can win this game, we get a free hit at them because the Clippers have to put us away in game 6

 

I'm going into this game just trying to appreciate the 2014-2015 season. It was fun: we won the third most regular season games in franchise history without Dwight for most of it. Just take it all in because it won't be happening again for six months.

As far as the comeback hopes, don't kid yourself. The 1995 team at least had leads to blow in the first four games. This team is fundamentally dominated in this matchup, and there's no more cards left to draw, not from this coach. Try not to get caught up in the score, and just appreciate the players we have out there. Usually you don't get a chance to be a dead man walking like this. It certainly won't hurt as much as the Lillard shot did, because last year we had hope that turned out to be misplaced.

 

We're going to win this game. No doubt about it.
Our guys will come out with a fire and an epiphany that there's business to take care of...

We got this win fellas.

Rockets 109
Clippers 101

 

lmao another blowout

not even gonna watch

 

Damn after tonight no more Rockets basketball for 5 months. Oh well stros are playing well and Football season is getting closer.

 

So...it all ends tonight....Feels bad man.

 

It's incredibly embarrassing that all the other series are close and competitive. This is just a sad beat down.

Clippers 117
Rockets 89

 

Monty McCutchen
James Capers

No Tony Brothers is good. Although that means he's still a possibility in Game 6 if the Rockets win tonight.

 

We've should've had fire after game 1.. game 3..

 

This year ain't over yet, at least we gotta try to fight it out to the very last second, because this team needs to based on the previous 2 games

 

What a sad end to the season. Only Mchale being fired will cheer me up.

 

We should have pulled a Cuban and sent the league office a video of all the moving screens LA is setting.

 

We will win this one.
