Clutchfans Game Thread: Rockets @ Lakers 9/12/2020 (Playoffs Round 2, Game 5)

nobody is taking westbrook and nobody would arguably take career choker-strip club visiter-blocked by a 45 year old manu-er-blowout loss to a kawhi less spurs-james harden either

unless they want fancy stats and free throws, nobody in their right mind is taking these dudes

 

oh i agree with you in that sense-i do agree coaching makes A difference-i just dont think any coach can make a difference to THIS team-when your leaders are heartless stat padders, theres only so much a coach can do

 

Morey has done amazing for what he has had to work with. He will go to Philly and will kill, just like Cp left and was still a good player.

 

Explain exactly how the Lakers are worse than Nuggets and Mavericks who both took the Clips to 6 games.

 

If they script a Lakers-Celtics series, we'll know none of it ever mattered.

 

You don’t have to FIRE someone that has no contract. It’ll be a “mutual parting” of ways. MDA is being being courted and will get PAID somewhere else

 

I hope House gets traded to a **** city and with a **** franchise to rot for the rest of his career.

 

Well here we are... all in and going home empty handed. We will never look like this again, Change is inevitable.

 

Philly has a better situation.

 

Clippers wont play down to the Lakers

 

Morey has never fully had the reigns to do what he wants since the day he became an assistant GM to CD. Input yes. Full control, no. It’s a shame because he’s one of the best in the league.

 

Morey didnt create this situation.

 

The point is bruh —-they are taking pleasure in our embarrassing pathetic showing after (the rockets) clearly not wanting their services.

 

time to delete twitter for the rest of the year lol

 

My main thing is no one tells him ****. All this Clapping clapping come on guys not going to get it.

 

I think teams would still sag off of him and ignore him to double Harden unless he was around 35% from 3

his decline in overall skill level is jarring...his handle is so garbage now...sh*t, Danny Green’s handle looks tighter than Westbrook’s...his passing is so off target it’s not even funny...he is legit 1 of the most inaccurate passers in the league...his handle and passing was never great to begin with, but sheesh, it was certainly at least comfortably above average...now it’s straight up buns...he seriously plays like he’s missing fingers and can’t grip the ball or like he’s suffered nerve damage...it’s that bad now

if that’s the price for Wood, then Rockets need to be at his front door the second free agency starts after doing several weeks of tampering...I think he’d be great here

Kenny Atkinson is my preferred choice of all the names I’ve seen mentioned that sound realistic, but yeah, the Rockets need to stop this stubbornness and unwillingness to change what they’re doing...it fails every year

For an organization that is so obsessed with analytics and efficiency, how come they can’t see that the offense falls off a cliff every postseason? It’s because the Rockets are not difficult to plan against. We change nothing, and bring nothing new to the table.

 

Hard to say.

Rivers hasn't been a very good coach since Boston.

And LA have both Rondo and LBJ, his former guy and a former rival.

Kawhi's jumper is interesting but again the Clippers were playing mediocre ball.

Questionable effort at times much like the Rockets but more talented.

 

5-4 now....nobody out. Josh Reddick just scored 2 !

 

River's is better than Frank Vogel, I can tell you that much.

LBJ is great, but Rondo will not have another series like this against the Clippers, he sucks. Clippers have a way better defense than we do.

 

Really ? Why?
