ClutchFans Game Thread: Clippers @ Rockets 11/13/2024

It's funny I can describe all of this with the lineups.
Jabari and Fred in the begining.
Amen and Tari in the middle.
Jabari, Fred and Jalen near the end
Amen and Tari for the win, rock on!!

Its the same pattern every game.

 

So you think Sheppard had a great game??? If thats a great game to you Sheppard will never have a bad game in your eyes ever.

0/3 is an amazing performance to you? 0% is literally the worst it can get you realize that yes or no?

You dont just use box scores to evaluate someone but you also can't ignore stats and think 0% from 3 and 2/2/2 is some sort of legendary performance. Some other people here will say he played decently but only you are the only one so deluded you'd call other people out on this game like its a statement performance or something.

Clown.

 

finally had a chance to watch a rockets game - absolutely love the defense and energy Eason and Thompson bring off the bench. Their length and athleticism on the defensive end is awesome to watch. Jalen Green though - he has good moments but a lot of it is just head scratching. Poor decision making and poor shot selection letting the other team come back during pivotal moments. I’m not sure if he ever will be THAT guy.

 

Wait a minute. People actually think Reed is doing good? Reed is just in the way at this point. Talk about delusional.

 

First 10 games of Amen's career, he averaged 3 pts a game in a whopping 18 minutes per game.
In January he averaged 7pts in 18 minutes played.

Reed hasn't had the opportunity yet. But he has contributed go back when he entered the game. Steal>fast break>basket. Deflection>turnover>assist. Closeout>Rebound>Tari basket. 12 point swing.
Made similar posts before. Wizards game was the one where he got got. Other than that his 'tape' translates to the association.

 

Just listened to the Rockets feed and man can these guys be up and down with their commentary….Hollins with that silly laugh when something exciting happens gets really annoying.

 

Yeah they were incredible defenders, but neither of them were that level of athlete. Especially Battier.

 

Very annoying and beyond corny... I can't unhear it.. Bit at least his looks match his commentary... Straight up cornball

Ruh Roh, the secret is out!

 

He is already that guy. Helped closed the game out last night as usual. Got a lot of mentions in a video about the terror twins because he is the closer.

 

Sheppard hasn't played great, but he's a rookie who has only played in a dozen games, and half of those have been 11 minutes of action or less. I'm still in "wait and see" mode with him

 

Do it again.

 

Yeah. He definitely hasn't found his shot yet, but honestly his quick hands and passing have been useful in his minutes. I feel like it wasn't really until this year that I wasn't screaming at the tv for Jalen to be yanked from the game when his shot wasn't falling because he didn't really bring anything outside of his scoring. Sheppard is already showing he has a good head for the game in year 1 and that he can contribute some without the shot falling. I feel like the offense will come around. I don't think, like some, that he will ever be Steve Nash, John Stockton, etc, but I do think he'll be a very valuable player in our rotation. Hopefully he has star upside, but if he's just a good rotation guy that works. They don't all have to be home runs.
