ClutchFans Game Thread: Nuggets @ Rockets 11/16/2013

Depends if McHale holds him back or not.

 

THis Will be the game McGee forgets what team he's playing for and he helps us WIN.

 

Jordan Hamilton goes for 34 points, Rockets win by a point

 

Lin is our 6th, so either Casspi or Cisco need to start stepping up. I think Casspi has a better chance cause he's a more versatile scorer (perimeter & drive).

 

The team needs to start playing better defense...

 

Lin really is a rhythm player.

 

I agree. No coach can hold you back unless he literally doesn't play you.

 

JJ, hawes, barg, Anderson recently which role player are we gonna make look like a hall of famer?

Edit: of coarse we win though

 

Harden will hold him back. If Harden has the desire to win, he should learn from Lin, learn to play off the ball. Lin plays off the ball when he and Bev on the court. But when Harden is on the court, he just hold on the ball for like 20 seconds, ball movement complete halt. Unwatchable.

 

Harden could play less selfish that's a knock on a lot of star shooting guards even Jordan but there isn't too much he could learn from Lin lol... can't give Lin that much credit even though he has improved this year from last.

 

Best solution is simple. If Harden gets the ball, if he can't make something work in 5-6s pass it out. Don't sit there and Iso unless you have <10s left on the clock.

I don't think anyone has a problem with Harden ISOing, just don't stand there and do it for 18s. I mean really, what are you going to figure out in 18s that you haven't figured out in the first 5-6s?

Oh, he didn't bite on my first 2 jab steps... lemme try 4 or 5 more!

 

just win

 

fk scoring, the team needs to play defense. rockets have been outshot for 2-3 straight games now. by like 20-30 shots. That's a lot!

turnovers and just getting stops. if that comes, the rest will.

 

Has there ever been a time where a pg avg 18/gm and is only in the 10th spot? Crazy.

 

It's a PG dominated league now. Guards are plenty nowadays. Well let me rephrase, PGs are. Only a few really good top tier SGs, Harden, Wade, Kobe

 

Lin, Parsons, Harden, Howard are leading the league in minutes from 1-4. We really need to start giving these guys rest.

 

Yes, Morey mentioned in his interview yesterday that they were concerned about the heavy minutes, and that was part of the reason they were trying to play Smith, etc. I hope we see the extended roster continue tonight. I'd like to see DMo getting some time.

 

We have played 15 extra minutes due to over times and countless close games and comeback games in which the starters were required

 

ty lawson will be our biggest threat tonight so i think beverley will be playing heavy minutes

 

Ty Lawson suffered eye injury, possible for tonight game.
