ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Thunder 3/11/2014

No worries. Cant win them all. Rival on the road.

 

Parsons should never guard KD ever again in his life.
Too soft

 

I know the team didn't play good...but man...Dwight looked like dog ****.

 

I think Lin was subbed out because McHale assumed he was gassed due to that one turnover. Nothing really to read there....we played bad in most patches and Durant went on Durant mode at the end and we still managed to be close. Disappointing but not overly upset

 

I'm eating crow right now.

 

They'll get them at home (hopefully). Going 3-4 against Miami, Indiana, Portland, and OKC isn't bad at all. Wish they could have pulled it out though.

 

Actually Westbrook was blowing by Bev just the same

 

I think the biggest thing we learned from this game is that we can beat OKC. We played like trash most of the game and were still there at the end.

 

yeah, lol. Watching him operate from the post was cringe worthy

 

I fully expect this team to manipulate the standings towards the end of the season and try their hardest winning games to get the 3rd seed if San Antonio are 2.

If OKC falter down the stretch and move into the second seed to end the season - I would be praying the Rockets drop a couple of games and slip into 4th.

 

How's that 2k you won AndrewWiggins?

 

thunders get Butler
clippers get Danny Granger
GM of the year. Morey???

 

This...or he needs to study him for the potential playoff encounter

 

OKC's help D on Howard was there tonight. Their guards also doubled Howard when Bev tried to drag his defender away. I think it was Jackson and Westbrook, they would follow Bev then run back and poke the ball out of Howard's hands.

They didn't take us lightly. Commentators were saying how much video OKC watched to prep for this game.

 

Parson is releasing is shots so late now even when wide open. They are nearly an up and down.

 

He struggled against Portland too. It happens. He's gonna have bad games. The good news is he usually bounces back(as does the team). Chicago is by far the most winnable game during Hell Week, so they need to step up Thursday to avoid a potential 3-game losing streak.

 

What? Without Bev this team is soft as cotton.
Howard sucked and Parsons/Lin are way too soft .

 

Howard should forget about doing post ups against OKC. Too many good defenders to swap away his shots when they are in position. Why not more pnr to attack when the defenders are out of position. You have to play team ball instead of selfish iso or post up ball in order to beat this good OKC defense.

 

Except when being that hard means costing us the game...

 

Plain and simple, Morey needs to stop looking for cheap stop gaps and actually recruit some legit shooters. I'm tired of him hinging his hopes on this 2015 class. I am tired of the flexibility BS that we been talking about all season. We have Harden and Howard, it's time to stop BSing and surround them with good shooters.
