ClutchFans Game Thread: Thunder @ Rockets 2/20/2013

It looked fine when he played in the all-star game.

 

I hope we win this one. Lakers are gonna play Boston tomorrow who is on a back end of a back-to-back. Lakers will *probably* pull out a win there, though they have been pretty unpredictable so lets pray they wont and continue to suck until the season is over.


Go Rockets!

 

we lose no question about it

 

I hope we will give our all, and play smart.
OKC has the edge, but an upset is not impossible.

 

Durant goes off on us again.

 

A loss will be painful (for playoffs positioning) and likely.

 

Probably lose, but the fact OKC is only favored by 2 to 3 points makes me feel pretty good.

 

let's go Rockets:

i don't know why we're going to watch this when we know exactly what's going to happen...

-With his ex teammates knowing his game, they're going to take harden's strengths and force him to another 5/20 shooting with 7 turnovers.
-Lin is going to get bench by the 2nd quarter bc he will be on pace for 15 points, while his matchup a scoring guard will be on pace for :gasp: 25 points on 30 shots & 6 tos.
-Ibaka is going drop 9/12 on patterson.
- finally, durant will go durant on us, from the small forward position, not the guards or pf like every other night.

final score. OKC 301pts v Hou 125pts

 

Knicks= not a contender.

I expect Harden to do a lot better than last time we faced OKC, but that doesn't mean we're going to win.

 

I'm hoping all goes right in the world and everyone comes with a lot of energy and positive thoughts!

Rockets 140
OKC 130

 

Kevin, play DMo. Ibaka sucks on O so there won't be that big of an disadvantage.

 

after such a long break we get...the thunder...oh well its better than nothing...at least portland lost...lets hope we can steal one against an elite team

go rockets!

 

I am the trap

 

LOL!!! This was mad funny!

 

If we get blown out this game, i would rather be matched up with san antonio if we make the playoffs seeing as we get destroyed by the clippers and okc. If we win this one, hope is in the building

 

Great learning experience for our players. Harden/Lin needs to be able to handle the trap/double teams better by passing it off quickly and decisively. We'll be fine.
