ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Thunder 3/27/2024

WIN

 

great time to build team chemistry

with these remaining games---actual play-in atmosphere rn imo...

 

Winning streak continues

 

What's the weather forecast in OKC?

 

no thunder, even if it rains

 

OKC has higher PT differential.

Anyway it doesn't matter it's still a must win game for us.

 

First game where we really get to see if this Jalen stretch is real.

 

OKC on a back-to-back, we on a win-after-win-after-win-etc man if we win this sheeeeshhh CANT WAIT!

 

Rockets are going to pull a Mavs vs Kings road win........

 

Believe in Jorge

 

Win, expect nothing less than a win. Need to eject the Warriors from taking the place of the Rockets. We belong, Warriors belonged.

 

It's a race!!! Gogogo!!!

 

HUGE GAME!!! GO ROCKETS!!!

 

Hardest game we've had in a long time. Hope we pull it out.

 

WI’m really nervous

The Warriors defeat of the Heat was a big deterrent to us even making the play-in. If we somehow make the play-in and Lebron is healthy the NBA will make sure that our season ends in LA. Even in the unlikely scenario that the league did not put the fix in, we would be hard pressed to beat LA in LA without Sengun.

 

I am curious if SGA, who has admitted to nursing a quad injury, will see a minute reduction or take the night off on the back-to-back. He did play 38 against the Pelicans and suiting up against the Rockets will be a physical game.

 

I think that laker win last night, without bron, will probably give them the spark they need to hold on. G.S. are still very much a question mark. Phoenix and Clips are playing like crap but I suppose they have enough cushion. JUST WIN ROX

 

We've already exceeded my pre-season expectation of 33 wins, so in a sense I'm already happy with how our season has gone. If we can play well the rest of the way and end the season at or above .500 I think it will have been a great season whether we make the play-in or not. Since we are not true contenders yet, the play-in is honestly just the cherry on top. Getting some playoff experience for the young guys would be great, and of course it would be fun to make it in as fans, but ultimately it isn't a make-or-break thing. Our progress has already been good.
