ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Bulls 12/11/2020 (Preseason)

Good start even if the Bulls suck balls.

Let's make sure to do it again on Sunday.

 

Wooten on a good path.

The next 3-D center?

 

Rockets have to go Pompeii all over Bulls on Sunday.

40 point W.

No mercy.

 

If Bruno can earn FT rotation with Rockets, this team will be 1 step closer to where it needs to be to challenge the Lakers.

 

He can stroke that 3 ball reasonably well for his size! I love that!

 

Best is still yet to come.

I'm optimistic.

 

That first year as PG he would have averaged 15 assists if we had better shooters. He killed people with those swing passes to the weak side three. And those throw ahead passes.

Harden should recognize that he is in a BETTER position this year than last year. Hardens drive game is predicated on having a big there to make the defense choose. Harden needs to take his early year mid game success and pair it with the heavy outside game hes focused on the last few seasons. It’s like two eras of Harden basketball. It’s like Claptons career and evolution in music.

 

Wall can bring the whole team together to get a big blow win. I just think whether we can have cp3 and wall in the same team. It will be very interesting.

 

I think this may be the story to watch for Sunday. The Bulls may not be a great team, but they will be familiar with the Rocket's sets. If we see another low turnover game, we may have turned a corner.

MDA's "system" of space and standing around did lead to fewer turnovers and more shot attempts. But space + coordinated player movement (like big men, turning away from the ball to set screens) should lead to even greater opportunities and creativity.
