ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Mavericks 1/3/2026

Lol, he's literally never healthy.

Trading Bari and Reed for 32 never healthy AD would destroy this franchise.

 

I doubt we can win one game during 7 games against Mavs.

We are ****ing soft.

 

Bari will be good again when we play Hornets.

 

3rd or 4th yea but they have been really careful with him which i kinda agree with

 

We are one KD injury away from becoming a lotto team

 

I didn't think Gafford did anything intentionally at the time but looking back at the replay, is it me or does stick his foot back slightly to try and trip Sengun? Like Flagg did Amen?

 

If Amen hadn't taken 3 threes, we might've won this game.

 

Bari and reed was so bad tonight. Bari with dumbass shots, and reed was basically a cone.

 

Silas team

 

Maybe we’ll find a real franchise player? (Wait, we don’t have any picks this year)

 

When Reed is being hunted out on defense, this team is over compensating to help him out. Then Our defense is in rotation leading to easy layups and open 3s. Reed is going to have to actively put up the same effort on defense that he puts up on offense. Reminds me of some guys I hoop with at the gym. All this energy on offense, but dont get back on d or play with no energy on d.

 

Dallas is a Center focused team and the Rockets have now played 2 games against them with Clint Capela and nobody as the only centers.

It was always going to end like this, ime should have just rested Durant rather than waste the minutes

 

That shots weren't that dumbass besides those midrange jumpers where he's fading away against Max Christie and Cooper Flagg for some reason. Most of his 3 point shots were wide freaking open as usual, he just bricked him. He should be shooting above 40% as often as he is left wide open but he's just mediocre.

 

Missed opportunity with SA losing. Great job

 

Felt like they played better when they took Clint out.

May as well pull their centers out of the paint, not like Clint is better than any of their centers.

 

Reed is a superstar, bari is a megastar. You deserve those losses

 

That is true, but when he is, which last year was a fluke. When he was on the Lakers he didnt miss that many games. Also you tell me Jabari, Reed and Holiday for AD? Come on man, not destroying a franchise while giving up so little. We need to win now while KD is here for 2 or 3 years. Thats what I'm thinking is the objective since we traded some younger pieces for KD

 

Rough game. We're a real trampoline act.

 

“don’t want or need a point guard. Got traffic cone reed”
