ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Warriors 5/8/2019 (Playoffs Round 2, Game 5)

Hit the road, motherf*cker!

 

Game 6 it is. Where does GS find 35 points to Match the rockets offense?

 

Yes, nene.

 

Media will rip Harden a new one tomorrow. Hope he recovers for Friday.

 

No choking going on the series was always going to go . The NBA is going to make their money. This series has literally been talked about in the national media.Look the Rockets are going to win two in a row. Look the NBA wants a dynasty to be succeeded this way and you can see what they want. they want the two mvps in the Finals Rox vs bucks. The champs are done anyway. Kd played his last game tonight the only team that should beat Golden State is the Rockets. This allows them to bow out gracefully but they are losing and we are fine

 

Will be interesting if any of the reporters in the pool ask Harden why he only shot once over the last 8:30 of the game.

I still believe, but that sort of performance gives me a lot of doubt

 

Brook Lopez is easily better than Capela. Capela is purely reliant on Harden's lobs. His defense this year has been atrocious. I just don't know what upgrades are available out there, considering the price.

 

Rockets will think some new ways to lose 35 pts at first.

 

He will give the same tired responses as when the reporters asked him what happened in game 6 against the spurs 2 years ago.

 

The Warriors beat the Rockets last year without Durant too. The Rockets can't guard the true Warriors offense.

 

Is Chris Paul selling hotdogs up there? WTF is up with that hat? Just one of many bad decisions today lol

 

Why is that the only time you show up? Go to a less "homer" forum if thats the problem. We are Rockets fans here, go somewhere else. Like I cant understand why you enjoy misery so much.

 

We just need to keep the pressure on them we control the boards and we win easy. They cant beat us

 

Are you insinuating a Capela and some role players for LeBron type of trade deal?

 

On one end Harden should have did more to try and take over the game,

On the other end it’s absurd he has to do EVERYTHING on offense and make EVERY single big shot in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th quarter because he’s got such sad sack of shyt players like Chris Paul and Clint Capela.

If Durant is out for the series and the rockets do **** around and beat the warriors in 7, does anybody have faith that they can beat an eventual finals matchup with the bucks with the way Chris Paul is playing these playoffs?

We need CP3 to play like a SUPERSTAR if we want to win a championship, and he’s been nothing more than a $40 million Raymond Felton at this point.

3/14 in a huge game is completely unacceptable.

 

Harden on why he didn't shoot: "Whether its other guys getting shots or open looks, or trying to make the right plays at certain points in the game, I'm not sure"

 

Ironically its on the same side as when Kd was out of bounds earlier in the season

 

I hope you are right but that end to that game is not promising. I could easily see them coming into our building, filled with passion and belief, and having that "Win one for the gipper" kind of game...while Harden does that "I'm not shooting anymore" thing and we will all be here wondering where the team goes next.

 

Believe it or not, I think they have better chance of winning. With Durant in, their ball movement would be limited. And now since he is out, curry and b**** ass klay would have more freedom and their offense would be more fluid. I dont know I might be trippin after this loss, but after blowing a ****ing golden opportunity I dont know if I have faith in this team after tonight.

 

When BasketMAD likes one of my posts I know it's time to call it a night. Go Rockets, y'all. We'll bounce back.
