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

Harden trying to outdo Westbrook

 

Everyone's 3P% is higher than Harden.

 

Can Harden stop shooting 3s till the 3rd quarter. Need to finish this quarter strong and take it to the hoop. Can not let Blazers go on run before the half.

 

NO LEAD IS SAFE!!!!!!!!

even if it's a 30pts lead

 

i only want harden and daniels taking 3's until we get the lead up otherwise they need to keep driving the ball inside and get fouls on people. especially wes matthews.

 

We are shooting ourselves in the foot, just like every other playoff game so far and tonight it's the worst. We've had chances to push it to 20 but again Harden and other guys trying to do it by themselves. I understand Daniels is hot but there was a 3-1 fastbreak, why take the three??

 

Funny that these the same shots he took all season long and if he made just ONE of these 3's the boards and the crowd would go CRAZY.

 

Even if they need to set 3 hard screens for a Daniels shot they need to.

 

This x1000

 

At least Troy has great confidence in his shot.

 

Need to maintain this lead going into the half. Don't let them get the momentum back.

 

Not time to start s' ing each others d's. Still have to play smart ball. Too many embarrassing comebacks in this series.

 

C'mon Harden let's put the nail in the freaking coffin!!!

 

Daniels should have leveled Lillard on that free ball. Perfect opportunity to send a hard message and not get hit with a flagrant.

 

harden, y u no drive no more. =( makes me want to cry. stupid refs no longer calling fouls

 

Take it to the rim

 

Omg if Daniels would've hit that 3 I would've erupted.

 

Harden is 0-4 from 3. He needs to stop shooting. Let Daniels, Lin, Bev, and Parsons take those shots.

 

This is similarly familiar to the all the other games in the series. We build up big leads, only to see them evaporate. Lets buck this trend tonight dammit!

 

Parsons and Lin changed the game
