ClutchFans Game Thread: Grizzlies @ Rockets 1/24/2014

Hey guys. Let's let the guy who just hit 10 3s 2H try and win the game for us.

OF COURSE the Grizzlies are gonna swarm Chandler.

 

The chosen one has lost us the game. 1-11, what?

 

Do you guys understand now why Harden must have the ball at the end of the game? Good or bad, Harden gives us the best available shot to score points. The alternative is what just saw: a broken play.

 

wow just wow, 8 seconds n u cant get a shot, this is painful

 

This game showed us everything we need to know about Mchale. Could've had James attack for a foul, or for an alley oop, or have parsons come off multiple screens.

Could've used parsons as a decoy to get a three for James or Lin, but we ran a pick and roll with parsons, who isn't good in those situations.

Now we know why James isos, cuz Mchale is in there saying "play harder"

 

WTF, McFail brought Lin on/off/on in one min like turning a switch, and he didn't get the ball....good job.Mcfail......smh

 

McFail = Kubiak

His coaching is making me sick.

 

Parsons with a great game but he picked up his dribble on the double team and had no where to go with no one to pass to except for Beverly. There may have been a better play drawn but that's where it went wrong.

 

And guess what boys? Expect more of it in Memphis.

 

I kept telling people that these Harden's ISO are by design.

The ISO is our go to play when we NEED points, it just happens that Harden is the best at it...

 

McHale should be fired. Enough is enough.

 

Didn't something similar happen last year or the year before?

Chandler Parsons has a career game and then is asked to make a play for the win, but instead the play gets stuffed and the Rockets lost.

I could swear I've seen this before!

Chandler is good but not a star - we have STARS on the team, give it to them on the last play and make Chandler catch-and-shoot off a screen. This is another one of those annoying losses that can haunt us.

Come on Coach!

 

I've watched a lot of rocket basketball and that has to be one of the worst playcalls ever.

i mean if we suck like this, i rather have van gundy with better defense.

 

Last two plays by Rockets, not even primary school basketball coachs would draw such bulls..t. The worst I've ever seen.

 

I think when McHale is drawing up plays he is only drawing how to pass in the ball and get it to the top of the key. That's not drawing up a play McHale.

 

I'm sure the play was give Parsons the ball. What he would do with it is up to his read and react.

I'm sure the Grizz would be guarding the 3pt line.

Still a super-great night for Parsons.

 

Dwight might be the worst pick setter in the League by the way. Chandler gets free if Asik were the one setting them.

 

how about setting up a shot for parsons. seems like letting them iso is the easiest coaching move, so go with it.

again a no name beats us in johnson. trade lin. after he showed to play d on mike last game, he should have gotten a little more room on that choke collar mchale has on him.

 

Great D by Memphis on the last play
