ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Jazz 4/20/2019 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 3)

James really just played like that.

Good lord dude.

 

Where the HELL is donknock when you need him .

The amount of chicken little bs scared fans here right now is insane !

Harden carried us all season

It's ****ing halftime

Stop mourning our loss ... and get ready for the beard to break this game wide open in the second half .

If I wanted to see such bullshit , harden-hating takes .... id go to r/nba or a jazz forum

 

that last play he passed up on the shot to give it to tucker in the corner after he jumped in the air to shoot is a red flag of how little confidence he's playing with this game.

James takes that shot almost every single time. he needs to stop caring that he's 0-10. we don't win without him shooting so he's gonna have to shoot his way out of this slump.

 

This is where a post game would help harden.

He would at least got a bucket or 2 in the post.

 

Playoff Harden at it again. Can't be considered a top 5 player in the league, let alone top 3, and have that kind of performance in ANY playoff game.

 

One thing is for sure, he doesn't really love to play against physical players/teams, that's when he has more trouble, hopefully he'll find a way to make plays in the second half, otherwise we're probably screwed.

 

this guy

 

You guys exaggerate. He isn't shooting good at all, but he is hardly having a super bad game. He is still getting his teammates shots and he has made some solid defensive plays despite being in foul trouble.

 

Man ignore the trolls and anti-rocket fans
They only come here to b**** and moan and piss off Rocket Fans

Rocket River

 

Harden seems to avoid shooting which is surprising,,, no self confidence. Reminds me of that notorious game against San Antonio. His mental toughness during pressure time needs to improve.

 

A game has 4 quarters in it. Wait.

 

IT'S OFFICIAL. @BasketMAD IS ON THE SCENE

 

Anyone with half a brain knew this was going to be a difficult game. Harden struggling is exactly the reason why we re-signed CP3. He will keep us in the game (or just take over it) until Harden wakes up.

 

This game is so gdm cliche and obvious.... bullsht call after bullsht call for the Jazz at home, while they foul Rockets with abandon..... NO consequence whatsoever..... Jazz w/ 10-12 completely unearned FTs. Harden has been roughed up, not making shots, we're not hitting 3s, and just... my god this sht should be tied or us with the lead even with how badly we're playing.

 

Can’t see Rockets winning this one

 

Harden just scared to shoot.

He turns off his offense button.

 

Crazy that you can't discuss a bad half without some people going nuts.

 

Rockets need to come out focused, Utah isnt going to keep missing these shots. Harden needs to get out of his head and stop worrying about the refs and just be the mvp

 

This is where a coach like Pop would run a play to get Harden an easy bucket. Put him on the post, do something. Dantoni is too lackadaisical sometimes. He’s holding the team back.

 

But his hamstrings, we don't need him wasted on the j*zz. I truly believe we should have swept both the twolves and j*zz, Cp3 overextend himself and we know what happened next round.
