ClutchFans Game Thread: Mavericks @ Rockets 12/8/2012

What does it say of you if you consistently confuse truth with idiocy?

 

TD gets picked off in all games all the time. Haven't you watched the other games?? You are so un-objective because of your irrational hatred of JLin. At least I don't hate TD - he is what he is.

 

then who was?

 

So you don't think that Harden's 30 points by halftime had less to do with the game being winnable than TD's play??? Also Mayo had 15 points in the 1st quarter but sat out half of the 2nd quarter when the Rockets came back.

So you think the "truth" is that TD made the game more winnable than Harden's 30 points?? You have a strange idea of truth in your alternate universe.

 

I knew Mayo was going to have a great game, he's the new Rockets killer on the Mavs.

 

Haters are easy to put down because their hatred makes them illogical

 

Does anyone agree with 34to11 that TD was the reason that the game was winnable? Remember that Harden had 30 points by halftime and the Rockets took the lead. Is that logical??

 

no, if they had really wanted to trade Asik, they would have put him on the floor. This guy was 4 points and 3 rebounds away from a double-double. a walking double-double sounds more marketable.
As for lin, it's beyond morey's power.plus an often benched player is not marketable

 

You continue to throw the word "hate" around but when asked to point out the hate, you fail.
Please give me an example of my "irrational hatred of JLin" of which you speak.

 

Oh I'm sorry if you're not a hater you are an idiot. Which is it?
Harden scores 30 points by halftime and you say Toney is the one who made it winnable. Sounds pretty idiotic to me. Perhaps you have some rationale for your statement. Please tell me what it is I can't wait to hear it.

 

Truth needs no co-signer.
Of course Harden's offensive performance was crucial. However, much like in the Lakers game, when Douglas entered the game the whole flow of the game changed for the Rocket's benefit.
Do you deny this?

 

I was pissed off after the game, but now that Marquez finally got sweet revenge and put Pacquiao to sleep, I feel much better.


Ugly, ugly, ugly game. I know Coach Sampson had said they were still gonna be trying out different lineups but ...really?

I just saw Lin's post interview and he sounded just as confused about his extended benching as everyone, don't think I've ever seen him look that defeated.
I understand sitting him if he played like crap like the Lakers game but why sit a player that's been struggling when he's finally hitting his shots, passing well and defending 6 MINUTES in the game? It's like they always try to stop him when he starts to show confidence again.
And at this pace, Harden won't make it to the all-star break alive if he keeps logging in these ridiculous minutes.
Also, goodbye Greg Smith, it was nice to see you play for that short period of time, shame you gotta keep Cole's bench seat warm again

 

The problem with Lin is that he tries to get everyone involved in the offense. This system is not about that. It's about taking your man 1-on-1, being a spot-up shooter, and trying to score on your own.

It's time to bench Lin and trade him to the Lakers because he's not the type of player for this offensive system.

 

The flow changed because:
1) Mayo sat out a lot of the 2nd quarter.
2) Harden went on a scoring spree

Not saying TD did not play decent - he just was not the main reason for the Rocket's comeback. You can't tell me Harden's 30 POINTS at the half was not the major factor. At any rate I don't care what you say I've had enough of this ridiculous discussion.

 

Still can't point out the hate eh?

And since you fail you resort to insults. That's pretty low, ever for you.
I understand though, no one likes to have their ignorance exposed to the world...especially in a manner for which they have no defense.
Hence the resorting to insults.

A little bit of honesty and objectivity might help with that.

 

TD is penetrating? Pass whatever it is that you are smoking please.

And Lin is a "ball boy" only because the coaches are morons, and Lin is being set up for failure. Clueless Lin haters like you are just falling for it hook, line, and sinker.

 

Ok I'm sorry I called you an idiot. I guess clueless would be more appropriate.

 

No - time to change the system.Did you see the San Antonio game? Teamwork wins not 1 on 1.

 

Allow me to point out the obvious.

Weren't you just a few days criticizing Lin for not getting around screens? So when it comes to TD, you blamed the screen. But if it is Lin, blame it on Lin.

You have demonstrated over the course of this season your unbridled hatred for Lin. You generously excused TD's horrible defense in the last few minutes. Where is the Simon Cowell in you?

To refresh your memory, on the 3-pointer, TD was late getting around the screen. Mayo had time to finish cooking his grits and TD was still nowhere to be found. On Mayo's slow waltzing to the basket, TD was just watching. It was a five-second drive to basket. Can you tell me what screen would shield TD off for 5 seconds?

Let me ask you. Were you watching game itself or were you celebrating the benching of Lin and fogot that there was a game going on?

 

Yeah sounds like he's got a hatred problem alright... Poor guy I fell sorry for him. Can't even think logically because of his hatred.
