ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Blazers 4/27/2014 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 4)

all i can say is, its divine intervention for Lin to make 2 horrific late game plays back to back...its literally worst case scenario, 2 turnovers, 2 3pters....u cant even make this stuff up

 

If anyone blames Lin for that supposed turnover again, I'm going to post that gif again

 

other coaches would run out on the court and call the timeout.

 

I completely agree that it's Lin fault that we lost this game. He should have taken better care of the ball. That being said, MO WILLIAMS WAS FREAKING OUT OF BOUNDS. and that out of bounds on Dwight. I feel like bad calls alone have cost us 2 games in this series.

 

His behind had the best shot to win a ring with lebron.too bad he didn't show up. Kinda why lebron left.

 

And do not forget the Technical foul on Howard, the refs said that Howard hit the player on the head with his elbow.

 

I want Lin traded first cause he sucks and second cause he will take all the LOFs with him !!!!!!!

 

Same here. We went through the exact same emotional roller coaster during that stretch of basketball.

The funny thing is the rockets might have actually taken the spurs to 7 games and who knows what happens in game 7. But the blazers are gonna get steam rolled. Both teams are fighting like its the championship, but they will have the spurs waiting to bounce them out.

And of course the rockets are the only good team not to get their hca back. The clippers, thunder, pacers, raptors, all got hca back and the league makes sure to extend every series except this one. They are scared of what we will do to the spurs and the possibility of us making it to the wcf. And they cant get away with these bad calls on such a big stage again, but they can in the first round with only portland and Houston fans watching and houston the only city getting screwed and crying about it, a always.

 

Harden wasn't the reason the Rockets lost tonight... and he has improved ever year in the league.

Not mad at Lin or McHale... Upset we don't have anyone to play in pressure situations, and as a result Lin has to be on the floor and not sitting at the end of the bench like he should.

 

Not sure if I want to see McHale attempt to run...

 

This guy is misquoting McHale. McHale said he told them to call a timeout UNLESS THERE WAS A CLEAR BREAKAWAY OPPORTUNITY. He did not say call a timeout no matter what. Nor did McHale try to call a timeout himself with the refs.

People need to get their shet correct.

 

If McHale was so clear about his 'timeouts' then why the hell did the refs not acknowledge it? Then this dude goes on to throw beverley under the bus as well. What a great HC we have here

 

Did he really say the above (bolded part)? Wow.

 

Are you saying he didn't turn it over ?

 

Yes they will. We need to surround Harden and Howard with shooters. Daniels will be the first step in this process next year. Lin needs to go and he will go next year.

 

Someone should make a youTube of all the plays harden quit on.

 

Real coaches get mad at their players for not executing. Not look distressed. We need a coach that can hold Harden and others accountable. Another great game by Howard wasted. Parsons is also just heating up. All for naught.

 

The only team that may take him will be the Lakers, once no big FA sign with them.

 

Where was Chandler Parsons down the stretch of the 4th and OT?

 

A Michael Finley turnover
