ClutchFans Game Thread: Hawks @ Rockets 11/27/2013

How many minutes would satisfy him and would McHale play him those minutes?

 

morey has the biggest trade asset in the NBA right now that can make us contenders. We can get a PF, wing defender & back up center.

 

Wassup with the lack of touches for Howard...78 shot attempts and only 6 attempts for Dwight ...that's what a touch per 13 shot attempts...I'm at the game watching and at home when on the road and it's been like two games where he had more than 15 attempts...Omer had seven attempts and the offense look more fluid with Omer than with Dwight. Does anybody else see this???


Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!! Be safe

 

Though it was the Hawks, nice win........ In previous games,I just dont like when they're up by 10+ pts in the 4th, they began hoisting 3 pointers like they dont know what clock management means...

 

By the way, Dallas leading over GS. Monta Ellis 4 pt (2-15)!

 

I don't see him as a starting PG, really. On the Rockets he'll do and I do love what he brings. But when it is time to have the team organized and get some playmaking going, Bev's not the guy to do it. AB can and of course Lin can. Harden does too but he really shouldn't be too much.

 

When Asik plays hard, he's a pretty nice piece on the team.

 

66 points off the bench which is one point shy of half our total points off the bench. That is incredible contribution.

 

Difference is he wasn't needed to run the team that night. He was a scorer that got blazing hot and actually had trouble when he facilitated and turned it over. Tonight he came in and imposed some order to the offense as well as scored.

 

I do... and its gonna get them in trouble against better opposition.... when they're up late in the 3rd/early 4th, thats a great time to go to Dwight repetitively.... But McHale would rather sit him and play freestyle bball

 

We need Asik. I'd say play Dwight 28 minutes a game and Asik 20 minutes. That will keep Dwight healthy and Asik happy.

 

Howard seems to have got complacent so if Asik can continue the same vein of form of the last two games from here on, he should cut into Dwights minutes and that should keep Dwight on his toes.Same with Brooks against Lin and Bev.

 

Rockets were a top offensive team last year and still are this year.

 

does anyone have a theory on why there are so many devastating injuries to NFL and NBA stars...in 15 years of watching sports I can't remember this many blown out knees, torn achilles, concussions etc.

 

Of course, when Harden gets back he should be limited to about 32 minutes a game. This team has enough weapons that he shouldn't have to play too many minutes so he can concentrate on defense.

 

his efficiency was bound to drop eventually.. still, he's been playing good ball through the stretch IMO.

 

Why did Parsons play 37 minutes?

 

FYI Portland is losing bad against the suns!! Morris twins looking good.

 

Actually that night our offense looked pretty out of wack in that stretch and he did the same exact thing as tonight along side bev. Both those times he was playing alongside Bev .

 

It's better not to discuss such things, in my opinion. Bad Ju-Ju!
