ClutchFans Game Thread: Hawks @ Rockets 12/29/2015

Going to post this here because more will see it....

How could all the stuff about Hardens personal life not be effecting his game?

I mean even if none of it is true I find it hard to belive that it would not effect him on a personal level.

Just out of personal experience, me and my GF the mother of my child who im still with were going through a lot of things 2 years ago and it affected my mood my relationships with friends and family and my ability to fully focus on my work.

The worst part about it is all I wanted to do was work and I couldn't because it was on my mind to much.

Keep in mind my business wasn't all over the Internet and magazines.

Just saying that all of us would be blind if we didn't think this was a huge problem in JH season so far. He's human just like each of us he just happens to play basketball and make 40 mil a year lol

 

took the rockets -2.5 so... dont let me down lol

 

He made the decisions and he has to face the consequences. Most here knew how this would end up with the Khloe Kartrashian ho. That is what sets apart people like Curry from Harden. They know their priorities and what should be of primary importance. Nobody is going to have a pity party for Harden for the stupid decisions he made over the summer. He has to take full responsibility and produce on the court

Stop making excuses for his drop in play and focus this season and his atrocious defense.

 

Jones was finding a bit of a groove. That's disappointing. Will be interesting to see how DMo does.

 

Loss.

 

Hawks on second night of back to back

 

To good mediocre teams battling it out. Should be a good game.

 

We could easily lose the next 3 making for another 4 game losing streak.

 

this is a lock... put your mortgage on it

 

Yes, it is disappointing and concerning with his illness history. What happened to him? I hope he gets better quickly.

 

The outcome of this game will be determined by if I he Rockets believe the Hawks are a good team.

 

If the Rockets win 2 out of every 3 games they will be great.

 

fwiw: only twice this year has a Rockets' game ended with a point differential of under 3 -- one a win (PHI) and one a loss (last game). So, taking a -2.5 spread, based upon 32 games to date, numbers say you are just betting on a win or loss.

 

Seems to always be the way with Mr. Jones.

 

I'm just going to say it. I'm sick of Howard not getting enough touches. HELLO DUMMY stop being a bunch of ding dongs. Howard needs 12 attempts minimum tonight. That is the winning formula. He doesn't have to be Kareem Abdul Jabbar out there. He could miss a few and still change the game to Rockets advantage. Feed the big man and play off of it. Stop playing it like 'ok we'll just throw it to him and watch if it works'. Move around, cut, give him an easy pass target if help shades towards him.

 

Just watched the video Best Of Shaqtin A Fool 2015/2016, James Harden's defense is already a NBA joke?

 

Boom. No truer words.

 

Lets hope JB has gotten through to them that team ball is the only way you can win.

If we win today, i will rate it very highly next to the Spurs win

 

Bout to play some cossacks baby

 

I want to see ty start with harden again, since we still experimenting. Anyways let's goooo!!!!
