ClutchFans Game Thread: Warriors @ Rockets 4/23/2025 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 2)

Does anybody have a clip of the 2 moving screen of the Warriors from the first quarter that were not called by the refs ?

The first one on Amen was quite brutal…

 

Warriors fans have been going absolutely nuts on Twitter/X posting clips and compilations of all of the Rockets "dirty plays". They're purposedly cropping clips out of context to make the Rockets look dirtier. For example only posting Amen throwing a bow at Cam Spencer "unprovoked" when Cam Spencer the play before had a full running shove Amen knocking him to the ground. Also cropping out Draymond tripping Amen to make it seem appear he fell on Butler on purpose. They are really trying their hardest to sway the officiating on their side before it gets to SF. Rockets fans need to step up and post their own compilations.

 

FVV and Brooks always looks him off, cause one of them is usually between him and his position on opposite side of court - Bari scores big when you play him with JG and use him and the screener …. It’s either a 3 or midrange jumper but we hardly run that action if Adams / Alpi in the game

 

So if Jimmy tries to play through this, does he have to change his offensive bag?

I mean so much of his offense is posting up and back to basket with fakes and stuff. Essentially plays where the defender if bumping or muscling him on his backside.

So would the Rockets defenders be able to the directly press on the contusion/bruise to increase his pain level? Just enough to mess with his concentration and focus to mess up shots or cause TO's.

 

I wish man, Refs let a lot go on both sides but this is inexcusable.

This was really dangerous. It's so easy to get hurt when you get push from behind and get blindsided like this.

 

Steve “Gaslighter” Kerr.

 

That's what I'm saying. They allow certain organizations and players to do whatever they want. TNT guys want to call out Jalen Green/Draymond Green play but not this.

 

What a shining example of being such a saint. What a child of God. I'm sure he's NEVER cursed or cursed out a fan. I'm sure that's never happened.

 

No news on Jimmy has got to be good news for the Rockets. If he were okay, it would have been announced already.

 

**** Kerr and **** the kids. Houston crowd, stay the same - **** YOU DRAYMOND!

 

I'm surprised we haven't heard anything yet but maybe they just want to keep the Rockets guessing for strategic reasons.

 

Gave Amen a pretty good forearm shiver to the back while Amen was boxing out. Not sure if there was action before that but definitely saw that. Amen put an elbow right into his chest too the next time down. Like 1 possession later they both caught techs.

Little of both perhaps? At any rate it wasn't an intentional action from Amen.

 

Detroit fans broke the code.

 

Yeah it’s Wierd like he’s only there to space the defence need a point guard who will get him involved
