ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Lakers 4/11/2025

I am not sure whether 3 weeks matter because this is only 2 weeks. 3 weeks or more is irrelevant. 4,5,6, 100 yrs all those are irrelevant to this discussion.

Now tell me why you said no other team rested their starters? Why were you lying?

 

I'm torn on rest v rust.

Going 2 weeks without any competitive action isn't ideal, but I'm not sure a brief scrimmage appearance Sunday will make a big difference.

 

Im assuming they’re playing starters for DEN for half a game? I don’t agree with how we sat out the clippers and lakers games. I thought at least one of these games should be played then rest last DEN game.

 

it wont cuz they will still have 1 week of rest regardless.

 

Injury risk. Remember how Amen got injured

 

No other teams resting like us that almost all rotation players did not play from last Wendesday.

We are not the only team locking seed.
But we are the earliest team to rest. Basically all rotational players did not play.

 

Again you are lying Jalen played this game.

It seems you cant stop lying and complaining no matter what. As long as there is something you are on the other side complaining about it.

If Ime rests his players in a meaningless game you will complain.

If Ime plays his players in a meaningless game and they get injured you will still complain.

 

It seems you have reading problem.
Just go to sleep.

 

I means it's fine we are going to be off for a week after sunday.

 

You said "basically ALL rotation players did not play". You are the one with a typing problem.

 

The Clippers and Lakers are irrelevant.

The Denver Nuggets Players have won a Championship and have a 3 Time MVP in Nikola Jokic.

I would rather see the Rockets see what level they are at in playing against them.

Steven Adams and Alperen Sengun vs Nikola Jokic.

 

It aint even rocket surgery

 

Jalen Green is on a Streak of Consecutive 82 games played, get 1 more. To Accomplish that. Huge credit to the Physio Team, Chiropractor, Chef.

There was a 2 week period at Milwaukee and Chicago Snow Cold Weather that Jalen Green was sick with a cough. That was tough to watch, breathing heavy while coughing.

Knee Contusion, hamstring, finger injury, wrist injury, sore feet, strained calf.

Huge credit to Jalen Green and Rockets Team.

 

Cam is good at basketball.

 

People are seriously arguing against resting starters in a meaningless game where LeBron literally limped to the bench? Bruh.

 

he wanted to block bronny so bad lol

 

A lot of posters here cant put two and two together.

 

I rather see that in the playoffs where games matter. Doing this now just gives Nuggets time to study and make adjustments.

We dominate them in a meaningless game, they have 1 week to dissect the tape and make adjustments, and then we are in trouble in the playoffs.

 

Are the Rockets going to throw the game tomorrow?

 

See people are taking a way too black and white stance on this, rest FVV, Adams & Jabari this game, rest Amen, Sengun & Tari the next, for example. Then you still had a puncher’s chance, this is just forfeiting basically.

Now we have to beat the Nuggets.
