ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Timberwolves 1/19/2013

no matter how uglay it gets, we have to win this game to rid this evil losing streak that has consumed the souls of the players, coaches and fans! just win.

 

One thing I'm glad is that the officials are not ignoring Harden tonight. Its tough for Harden to drive to the basket and gets foul and knowing the officials won't call anything. That's why he has to settle for jumpshots... But again, a foul is a foul and he knows how to draw fouls. I hate how some people here on clutchfans keep saying the official have to save Harden's ass when Harden is actually getting foul to the basket.

 

is it me or does every SF abuse parsons

 

Who you got: Belfort or the Count?

 

The Rockets are sucking it up. This defense is soooo bad. I still love the Rockets though. They will forever be my team. The Timberwolves suck. Go James Harden. Show us why you are the MVP of the league

 

During the half time break....if you were the coach, what would you say to:

i) The team as a whole?
ii) To James Harden?
iii) To Jeremy Lin?
iv) To our PF?
v) To Omer Asik?

 

Team FG% 34.2%
3P% 21.4%
FT% 69.2%

We can't expect to win games with stats like this.

 

I like Beverley's energy. But he's pretty much a Douglas clone. I don't know what he did to merit taking Douglas minutes. They are basically the same player.

 

What are you talking about? They stopped running the last 2 weeks. That's why they are losing.

 

The team needs to man up and come out in 3rd and blow this team out. The Wolves are missing lots of their players and they are still out playing the Rockets. McHale needs to get this team going but then again this is McHale.

 

The scrubs have to go!!!...PPat, Morris, Douglas, Aldrich, Mchale!!

 

We're .500 team anyway. bout time we come back to normality.

 

All it took was a little time and challenging his posts.

We get it, it's never Jeremy's fault. There's always an excuse or justification when he plays bad.

 

It's obvious the insane number of back to back games has tired out the Rox. It's the only thing that has changed this month from last month. Players can't be blamed for fatigue. Coach needs to either change up his rotation or play more bench players. You can tell the difference between an average coach and a great coach like Pop. Coach Pop rested his starters on the 2nd series of back to back, right? Rockets are on their 5th series of back to back games in 15 days. Coach needs to adjust. This is ridiculous.

 

Wheres Toney?

 

Calvin is pissed!

 

All I wanted was playoffs this season. Now that doesn't look like its gonna happen.

 

like where every pg abuses lin? jk

 

I don't know but the Rockets tonight looked exhausted. They are going through a brutal road trip and all these back to backs are killing them.

A lot of people here on ClutchFans don't understand and believe that just because the Rockets are young, that they are better on back to back. But there's a research that proves that veterans do better on back to backs better than younger players.

 

Every team has our offense memorized
