ClutchFans Game Thread: Blazers @ Rockets 4/30/2014 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 5)

Jeremy Lin finds redemption again and reaches salvation to become the next Dalai Lama

 

As much as I want to be hyped up, Que Sera Sera. It's really easier this way.

*secretly hopes we win*. Oh WTF, take this win!

 

I'm going to give all my energy to the Rockets, hopefully Harden and the rest of the crew ascend to Super Saiyan level and wipe the effing Blazers from the face of this good earth in 7 games.

 

Please win...

 

On a side note, i think Gokous outfit is from the same tailor as the incredible hulk. Both their belts never seem to break regardless of what happen's.

And the super saiyan reference, i pray Harden's beard turns yellow.

 

Troy hits 5 3's
Harden goes for 40
Lin doesn't blow the game

 

I STILL BELIEVE!!!

LET'S GO ROCKETS!!!

3 in a row is not out of the question.

I support everyone. Especially I hope Harden and Lin come back and play really strong and redeem themselves.

As for the haters and non-believers. GO F urselves.

 

Damnit, Reggie & Harlan again commentating. Why can't they find someone without an annoying voice for once??

 

I BELIEVE!

 

No confidence, so just win.

 

Blow out either way

 

HOU crowd will see Troy Daniels for the first time. Hope he continues with his torrid shooting and not fall for his opponents' fakes.

I'm not expecting anything from the Rockets anymore, just hoping for a good game without any bonehead plays from anyone.

 

My prediction:

after two days between games, McHale actually calls a play after a timeout which players get to execute.

No Jeremy Lin inside of last 5 minutes. He goes to Howard, Harden, Parsons, Daniels and Bev.

 

A character test for sure. No team wants to be eliminated before their home crowd. Very bad for business. Would end the season on a dismal note. This game is critical in so many ways. I expect it to be even more intense than the others.

 

Not ready for the season to be over. I want to experience 1, preferably 2, near heart-attacks after game 5.

 

just lose and get it over with, i cant keep clinging to false hope

 

Exactly what it is.

False hope

Game goes to OT, Rockets lose again. Season comes to an end.

 

Must win

 

For those who want to be hopeful, watch game 4 of the Rockets Thunder last year. At home, we started off great with screens, off the ball movement, Harden not holding the ball too much, a lot of passing and Asik running pick and rolls. It's time to get that going because if we lose 4-1, I seriously will start believing we have regressed from last year with trying to focus on getting Howard as well as Harden touches.
