ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Warriors 10/27/2010

Jeremy Lin???

 

Backcourts will pretty much cancel each other out. Our bench and play from our bigs is where we win.

 

I want to see a strong 3rd Qtr, this has plagued us throughout Rick's tenure. We come out flat and start walking the ball up after the halftime.

Less of Shane and more Bud. I don't care if Shane's D is better, dude actually tried to slam the ball back home and missed badly. Shane, stay in your house.

Ish, get the rock and push it, Lee's decision making is questionable. I noticed that Lee holds the rock once it's swung to his side, looking to shoot or drive. Get off the rock Lee, the offense will get you an easy shot.

We will need Hill and PP to give us some quality athletic minutes tonight.

 

light em up roxs!

 

okay, lets call last night a teachable moment, now go out and KICK WARRIOR BUTT!!

go rox!

 

We will probably get to see Hill and maybe even Patterson tonight. I'm sure Ish and Jeffries will get in too.

 

I would also like to see Brad Miller get a little more aggressive when he recieves the ball in the paint or somewhat outside the paint. He has the ability to hit those mid-range shots.

 

It will be interesting to watch if Jordan Hill will get the start in order for Brad Miller to build continuity with the bench players with whom he will be in regular rotation with.

The front line of David Lee and Beidris should be a good test of the progress Hill made over the summer and preseason as well. Lee is an excellent rebounder who can bring you out of the paint to hit the 15 ft. jump shot on the offensive end. Should be a fun game to watch.

If the Rockets play half-a$% on defense they should get an easy win, but if they play to Golden States messy, fast pace game and Curry, Ellis & Co. get hot from the 3pt. line then we could get in trouble. Expect to see Jared Jefferies get some of Battier's minutes to help out on peremiter defense since Battier is probably winded still from last night.



*note from last night. In the first half when Pao Gasol was really heating up and killing the Rockets inside the paint, Chuck hayes came into the game and completly destroyed him forcing Phil Jackson to totally change their offensive gameplay in the second half when they exploited the exposure of their three point shooters and brought the Lakers back in the game.

-The Rockets might be one of the flashiest offensive teams in the league, but winning is the name of the game here and this is just one showing here why Chuck, Shane, and yes Jefferies will be keys to us winning games this year especially if the Rockets want to go deep in the playoffs. Be careful about wanting to trade these guys this year.

 

Rockets squeak by in double OT, 133-129.

 

NBA League pass is having a Free preview for Dishnetwork Fans who can't watch the game. Hopefully people who have dishnetwork will be able to watch tonights game with the Free Preview of NBA league pass and hope it's not blacked out.

 

No yao. More Brad, hopefully some Hill.

Just win.

Rockets 104 the warriors 94

Bleed Red Rockets Red.

 

We're a better team than the Warriors....even without Yao. I'm expecting a win tonight. Let's get it.

 

No more than 12-14 turnovers!!! (being realistic)

 

Were going to light them up gonna be an exciting game tonight.

 

Let's win, Rockets!

 

Lets see what Jordan Hill can do. Expecting a win but they will be amped up for their opener.

Rox 108 Warriors 104

 

i'm actually expecting to see Hill start. If he doesn't perform, then we see a lot of JJ. I'd be surprised to see Paterson. Was going to say that he'll probably be in street clothes, but with Lowry and Yao, out, he beats out Taylor for the last jersey.

Actually, I'm assuming Yao won't suit out, but perhaps he will? No, we won't play signficant minutes, but perhaps Adleman would rather have Yao available in case of the unexpected (last play(s) of the game like in Dallas, Hill or Miller gets injured) then have Patterson available for the unlikely garbage minutes.

 

let's hope the home cookin doesn't continue.

 

I have a feeling Hill is gonna wreck inside tonight!! Im excited just like i was yesterday!

 

I think the Warriors are much better this year i see the making the 8th seed, it could be a tough game.
