ClutchFans Game Thread: Thunder @ Rockets 1/15/2026

No. are you ****ing rational?

 

been saying it since GS series … 90s ball will not get us where we want to go

 

Don’t think on quiet evenings when the vents are popping from the heat expanding metal and wood in the cold air I dont think about it from time to time. Heck they even a wantmymomma universe

 

Does anyone think the outcome tonight would have been different if we played curry who could hit a bunch of 3s?

Tell me what your gut instinct is

That should tell yhou everything

 

There's no killer instinct. The toughness is just gone.

 

Y'all give Harden 7 years and still believe he can do something but you give Green one playoff appearance and quit on him.... Oof

 

yep. Amen and Tari are tough but I think Fred and Dillon unleashed that nastiness in them. Having guys like that on the court and locker room is very important. Durant may have raised their technical knowledge and attention to details offensively but the energy and intensity isn’t there on both ends and that’s difficult to replicate

 

You know your expectations are hitting near bottom when you are pining for a dude that has played exactly 1 or 2 games in 40 games .....I already said his thin frame is not going to last long term, he had that Iron man 82 games and that was more fortune than not.

Of course you can, get Silas, when you hired Udoka it was hardcore Playoff pursuit from Day 1.

Udoka was never a true fan of Jalen, you could just see that coming. He ain't even a true fan of Alpe, although he knows Alpe is a great player in the making.

And Dillon helped but who made the Suns who they were, one name - Jordan OTT.

 

Yep. I thought it was premature but I actually didn’t mind him getting traded but it needed to be the right player with age position and style of play in consideration.

 

Just because this team ain't it after the trade, doesn't mean this team would have been it without it. This team is missing a whole lot regardless. Jalen and Dillon were not saving the day.

Harden was top 10 in MVP voting his first season with the Rockets. His time in Houston was historically great, Hardens peak is a top 5 all time offensive player. Comparing Jalen to Harden is absolutely insane.

 

20 more rebounds but still 20 pts loss.

Playing soft again? Lol
Ime is a ****ing idiot coach.

 

Reed, having no balls himself, sapped the rest of the team or their balls. Ain’t that right Stephen Anthony & hlm.

 

Post of the game.

 

he sucks get over it lmao

 

It’s just mind boggling how they brought brooks in to change the culture then got rid of him. Got impatient and traded away the only guard on the team that could consistently get to the paint and shoot a 3. Now we have an imbalanced roster with no bench depth. Didn’t look right in the beginning and doesn’t look right now.

 

Fred on one leg is better than what we’re putting out there. Goodness.

 

Great player averaging 21 PPG on 54% TS okay

 

That is a whole lot of words for that little sentence.

 

Correction, we are an iso team.

It’s what Ime believes in: “Beat your man” is the core to his basketball philosophy.

I’m not being hyperbolic - some coaches feel that way, Ime is one of them.
