ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Thunder 12/1/2021

They beat the Lakers. They have little something....idk why they can't take the next step.

 

To vacuum up meth ashes??? IDK

 

Theis has played pretty good all season. The problem was the two big man lineup wasnt a grood fit, thats a coaching problem and not a Theis problem. Theis is a pretty solid backup big that does everything pretty well.

 

Watch the game Giddy was out from the start - I refuse to read anything if you didn’t even know that

 

that was without Bron…the Lakers with no Lebron are a joke

they have little talent, and no shooting

Presti just gifted Sengun away, and will continue using that plethora of middling picks to acquire more tall/lanky guys that can’t shoot…it’s his specialty

 

"AND ILL DO IT AGAIN."

- The Houston Rockets

 

Tate with a monster game tonight. His trade value just went up. Let's trade him for some hypothetical future superstars!

 

This is kind of true he's a solid back up and I was happy when we got him but the way SIlas was using him made me not like him. In the two big lineup he was jacking up threes. I also judged Tate based on SIlas putting him at the three where he was jacking up threes and I think the people who hate Jalen and want to get rid of KPJ said those things because of how they looked without spacing. So yeah I think youre right.

 

Then what are they going to sleep on? Dirt? Pile of cigarette butts? Have some respect we’re talking about their literal living conditions.

 

Mobley has a capable coach, Rubio, garland, and Allen to help. Two bigs work for the Cavs but not us

 

Tate is different from Wood in that he is not gonna command as much money and he wont be in the way of developing Rookies. Keeping Wood is saying that he is our future and we're building around him it isnt the same way for Tate.

 

The problem is there’s no upside to theis. Yes he’s a serviceable big but that’s about it. We’re a bad team. He shouldn’t be taking away minutes from guys with more potential. It’s not his fault. He really should be on a team in different stage of development. It was a bad signing.

 

I don't think your comprehension skills are up to par.

I don't see many people calling him a bust.

I see many people rightfully saying he is not a good basketball player right now.

 

Sure, it’s the Thunder, but they wanted this game on their home court, badly. Both teams going at it tooth and nail, the Rockets finally grabbing a narrow lead and just would not let it go. Damn, that was fun to watch. Silas finally pushing the right buttons at the end. I was shocked. A fluke? We’ll see.

Four in a row, two of the wins against very good teams. I’m enjoying this.

 

isnt this sooooo much more fun than tanking?

 

Not only that but even with Theis back we didnt run the double big lineup so there was still spacing out there with him there.

 

Oh i agree that he shouldnt be taking playing time away from our young bigs, im just saying all of that is a coaching issue and not a Theis issue. Theis has preformed well for what he is and is asked to do. I would love for sengun/garuba/wood to get all of the big minutes, but oh well i doubt that will ever happen. Im not completey out of Silus though. He, just like most coaches, prefer to play veterans over rookies, cant really fault it.

 

I was making a playlist for a girl like it's the 1990's. What?

 

2 wins in a row vs the same opponent is the hardest thing to do in RS...you almost never see it....its perhaps harder and rarer an occurence than in playoffs
