ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Lakers 11/2/2021

Nah they will just pick on Scooter until Jalen has another bad game or stare at their poster of Evan Mobley with teary eyes.

 

good game, everyone looking confident since the 1st Q.
Let's get the pick for Theis and start playing our young people.

Augustine was good and important at the start of the 4Q.

Several things to point out but overall happy that we got a serious basketball game, I thought we might go several games before getting one.
One major thing to work on is ATOs. Our 1st play was good, but our 2nd play was tuuuurrible.

I´ve been a major critic of Jalen Green, but last night I saw the potential Y'all were talking about. We need some Jalen - Wood action, we spend the 2nd half withou looking for the kid, the second he gets space, 2 threes in a row.

I saw something last night, but most important, it looked like the team saw it too. KJ Martin was different energy too. Kudos to the walking highlight on this team, he has earned his minutes.

 

I'm sorry, but what in the blue hell was Wood doing when he is wide open under the basket, he should have went up strong with 2 hands and get the and 1, instead he was like a deer in headlights

This is gonna be a loooooooong season, Lakers were practically giving us the game.

If they go on a 10 game losing streak then ill start watching college basketball harder than ever before, cause it will be clear we are tanking, or we just plain suck

 

improvement.

 

First mumble basketball player? like first mumble rapper

So hard to understand the dude somtimes..

 

That last arcing three over Davis is not exactly what I would consider space haha.

 

How many open layups will he miss next game?

 

You really don’t deserve that moniker. Alp is a legit future star.
The best defender on the team already.

You keep that same energy for Jalens bad games in shooting and turnovers?

 

Good stuff last night, the best kind of loss, along with improving lottery odds.

 

Theis can at the least finish around the rim. You like watching bigmen missing open layups & repeatedly get beat off the dribble? That's not basketball

 

You should never give sports opinions. They’re that bad

 

I missed the reason why Theis didn't play. Is he hurt?

 

lol you're a

 

He faces All-Star players like LeBron James, Anthony Davis, Carmelo Anthony and misses while he is just 19.

He'll miss enough to make you mad.

Were you able to go out of town alone when you were 19?

PATHETIC.

 

The stepback over AD is like this generation's AI crossing MJ. Even the Staples Center crowd was buzzing.

 

Best game of the season thus far, changing the starting lineup and rotation worked wonders. Sengun is the kind of player that makes everyone around him better and KJM finally getting some burn just showed how irresponsible keeping him benched was.

 

This team grew up last night. Now they have to build off of this. We had 25 turnovers and missed a lot of free throws.

I’m not worried about Scoot missing that shot, he will have more opportunities to redeem himself this season. I’m just glad he had the guts to take the shot!!!! Some would have passed it.

 

I'm just glad he got a good shot off.

He was the only guy to get open and he had to recover from a bad pass that meant he HAD to shoot it.

In a perfect world, Green would have been able to get open in order to take the shot since he was hot, but it just didn't work out that way.
