Best win of the season... good **** EG, made Mamba proud w/ that clutch 50 piece. He just needs to keep up that sharp shooting, we desperately need that going forward.
See.... I hate tweets like that. Our support never normally performs like this. Which begs the question, why are they not performing like this on a consistent basis? And don't give me that crap it's because Harden and Westbrook have the ball all the time.
not in this game. they came in and they ended up blowing the 9 point lead and going down forcing a timeout. then the rockets got it back and never looked back guys like Ihart and clemons did nothing to earn more minutes. just trash tonight
really glad i watched tonight's game. was great to see us play better defense. it was nice to see Gordon back and fully dialed in. Nice to see the maximum effort the entire team played with. I still think our bench talent is suspect and that we need another impact player, but loved the attacking and suffocating way we played tonight. Probably our best win of the season so far. I'd like to see more of Frazier; if he can get his confidence, he might be a player.
Except towards the end, low turn overs, ball kept hopping and everyone took care on defense. Great win!
Were Clint and Harden at the game? I never saw them cheering with Russ, Chandler, and the rest on the sideline.
Gordon also only the 3rd player to score 50 on the road this season. Harden has done it 4 times and D’Angelo Russell was the other to do it.
we played good Basketball.Thabo, P.j.,mclemore and House played really good zone defense on the interior. Man to man yhey got burnt a little but good win
So you're trying to tell me rookies that haven't played a game in 3 months are now expected to push the lead? You would instead like to lose a lead running your best players into the ground instead. this is smart. this is smart thinking.
Austin is critical to the success of this team which is a little scary but it's true. We have to have at least three knockdown shooters on the court at all times in order for us to be elite. With two shooters or less on the floor, we are average at best.
Wow! Forget flashes of superstarism, EGO was a damn SUPERSTAR tonight! The effort level all around was fantastic. Austin Rivers was a great second option and Danuel House's hustle was crazy. And THABO SEFOLOSHA of all people pulled out some crazy-ass moves. Utah thought they had this game before they even played it, and our role players smacked them in the face. If we don't get excuses for the Rockets losing to shorthanded teams, the Jazz sure as hell don't get one. This also goes to show one thing--playing hard and with intensity always brings about good results. Super stoked after this one, with all the terrible stuff happening recently I think at least a great Rockets win can lift our spirits a bit.
push the lead? that may be a bit much but almost instantly lose a good lead. yeah go sit down. you havent earned time on the floor
