ClutchFans Game Thread: Blazers @ Rockets 4/5/2018

McCollum played til the clock had triple zeros and came in to witness a lay up with 0:00.8 remaining.

Hahahahahahaha

 

we scored only 30pts in the 2nd half and WON!

 

Too late.

 

Take that for layups.

 

He better not expect that come playoffs.

 

Let's pretend Blazers aren't a good team with a top 10 defense. Their role players made a huge run and played some good D down the stretch. How about giving them some credit. Us blanking on 4 wide open corner threes didn't help matters either.

 

A choke is a choke, no matter the team you're playing. Losing a 24pt lead, especially in a short period of time, is a choke no matter what seed of team you're playing.

 

I suggest you go back and watch the game and learn how to see. Harden actually handled the double pretty well, but our role players need to hit their shots.

 

I don't get the whole "meaningless" game argument, why even play the game then? If you're on the court, you have to play to win... That 2nd half was just a combination of lazy, stagnant offense with almost no movement coupled with terrible shot selection. They let the Blazers bench brigade absolutely embarrass them... Glad CP3 hit that last sec shot or else this would've been one of the worst meltdowns of the entire season.

 

I hate James Harden for creating talking points until Saturday.

 

A choke is only a choke when you are playing a team that has no business winning. Blazers are not one of those teams. Blazers are actually a good team with top 10 D.

 

CP3 sooo clutchhhhhhhhhhh

Great to have a clutch player who can win you the game at any time

 

We play games to try and stay in rhythm. Also, the Blazers bench is good. Don't you remember the last game where their bench played great even though Dame and CJ played like garbage?

 

The Rockets just won their twentieth home game in a row. They're 64 - 15. Seven games ahead of the Warriors. 19 games ahead of the Spurs. 40 games ahead of the Mavericks.

 

Worst meltdown with nothing to play for? Naw, man. not even close.

 

Rockets were laying enough bricks near the end that would build the pyramids. When everyone is on board (not sitting on the side lines), that won't happen.

 

TROLL.

MAVSSWYGUY STRIKES AGAIN!

 

Considering that's their role, why wouldn't he expect them to hit wide open shots?

 

What’s there not to get? The game meant absolutely nothing. The Rockets played because they have to, but the team is done with the regular season and is just biding their time waiting for the playoffs to finally start. The Rockets are playing these game just hoping to not get injured.

 

cp3 scored the final layup to win the game vs blazers..that's a perfect ending imo
