ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Mavericks 2/8/2025

Max Christie: 10 FTs
Jalen: 2

Seems legit.



YoU jUsT GoTtA DrIvE MoRe JaLeN!

 

Houston, we have a...something or other. We need a win in the worst way. Stop the bleed!

 

The players who seemed to care today were Adams, Amen and Bari. Adam has heart. We need to only draft players who really care. Team players.

 

I would trade anyone on this team except Amen.

 

That's a sign of heavy legs

 

True and the injuries are not long term yadda yadda yadda, but we're here without the starting pg & without Jabari. It hurts. 25pt swing.

Meanwhile, other teams got players on the pennies. I'm not even wanting Durant. How about rocket legend Pookie aka Schroeder.

 

I thought Jalen played well too. He just got to learn to have more control at the end. That comes over time.

He's the only starter who hasn't missed any games. I think he's women down

 

Well, we wanted to stay put and trust the current core. We ain't winning **** until we get difference maker, Jalen and Alpi are not that

 

I'm talking about the fast break. It's obvious that this hasn't been a point of emphasis. We just assumed we'll get buckets and figure it out. But there are habits we have that are still amateur, and all that needs correction and coaching.

 

FVV watching from the bench like, "Tell me I ain't worth it again."

 

For those who wanted Ben Simmons, how would adding his non-shooting self have helped us today?

 

What happens first:
Bregman signs (any team)

The refs were never going to let us win that game.

 

Since we lost we are blaming Jalen right?

 

Im not optimistic as you. Players either have it or they don't end of story. Anthony Edwards was clutching and closing out games for his team through the Western conference semi finals in his fourth year. Jalen Green in his fourth year isn't half the player that ANT is.

We need to trade for a real superstar to lead this team. Hopefully someone like Ant or Cade but Booker is manageable if we keep FVV to run the offense.

 

Dallas got the full AD experience in 3 quarters. From this guy is our savior to invisible men attacking his groin with spears.

 

Yeah that was some BS **** like this is why people think games are rigged. Christie got a bunch of soft calls.

 

The garm is going to be a shiiit show tonight.

 

This team, as is, will not make a leap. We are one all-star away. The question is, can Stone find him? We win this game with De'aaron Fox, who we could've easily had. Stone needs to come up with someone better than him. But will he?

 

He's woren down, he needs the All Star Break. He's the only starter who hasn't had a break
