ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Timberwolves 4/21/2018 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 3)

Kill it next round? We are so sure about that? They KILLED our ass, how we can allow players like Teague, Wiggins and Rose shooting with 60%? Are we serious? Maybe I was dreaming, I was thinking that we can have a change this year, but we don't. GS is on an higher level, they play serious defense, we played defense like was summer league. Wake up Houston or we gonna go home next round (or this)

It's time to show up Harden, to show that this is your year, that you are an elite player, if you choke this year, you always will be remembered like a regular season player.

PS. Sorry for my english if I made mistakes.

 

Well the difference is AD, their best player, is high energy and intense. Our best player can come across as careless & lethargic at the wrong times. Our high energy guys are role players & bench guys. We need James to come with intensity every play, not just when scoring

 

Worried about the damn Warriors and might not overcome the T Wolves.

This could get real interesting - you know #13 can’t handle the increased pressure. I hope this doesn’t go to 7 games

 

Did you say this when we were up 2-1 in the first round last year? Just curious. Minnesota has a little more overall than what okc had but we also have a little more than what we had last year as well.

 

All of Gordon's minutes need to go to Green until he remembers how to shoot.

 

Number one queetion I’m asking where is J Smoove?!?!?!?!????

 

Yes plus if u a team that hasn't sniff the playoffs and what like 15 years back against the wall, if you don't come out with a good game there something's wrong. Let's not forget that year we beat the warrior one game when they were the number one seed too. N we was 8th. A team with heart should atleast get one. He'll I expect even the spurs to win one for pop. I beat those same guys won't get on the warriors

 

we've played bad ball for at least a month now.

 

Its not fair

 

Absolutely............Gerald Green is the only Rocket player acting like he's on a mission.

 

LOL if #13 had snakes' supporting cast and coach #13 would be up 3-0

We lost last game despite of hardens 29 & 7 not because of it

 

* IF

 

Last game was his worst -20 bpm. Foul trouble. Late close outs

 

Dat dude is my favorite guy in a Game 6.

 

agree with this

 

Which means they're not playing well at all, and definitely not a team that will challenge the Warriors

 

It was a pretty bad game but I'm not too worried about it. Having a challenge might be really good for this team and hopefully this team can get motivated from all of the talk that we can't get past the Warriors. Those people chanting "Wolves in Six!" at Target Center should be a challenge to the Rockets..

 

Let's see how they do against Golden state next round..

 

We should tank

 

I don't get it either... This is the playoffs... Be patient.. Enjoy the ride, game 3 was yesterday.. On to game 4
