Game 43: Rockets @ Clippers 1/18/16 

Post#1 » by Mr. E » Mon Jan 18, 2016 8:09 pm

I was not around this past weekend. Looks like I didn't miss much. I'm glad that I didn't see the Cavs game and I didn't realize that they played the Lakers last night until I saw the results this morning.

2 games over .500 and five games back from the Clippers. They are the team that the Rockets should be targeting as they try to move up the standings. Of course that would mean that the team needs to play far more consistently. A road win tonight against the Clips would be huge at this point in the season.

Go Rockets!

I told y'all. One good game from Jones then three straight terrible ones so far. Tired of this guy. How do you manage to be a -14 in a twenty point win!? Ryan Kelley was outplaying him.

JBB is so so so so so so so so so so bad. They haven't played a legit 4 all game yet he refuses to go small and would rather play TJones when he's had one of his worst games this season.

Howard is killing it for me

Hope we pull this out...Gf keeps calling and interrupting the game...she has a knack for calling in the middle of games and I can't sit and watch and talk on the phone. Have to pace

I know he killed us tonight but I like redick. Have since he was in college, he kinda got That oh he's overrated because it's college label but he carved out a great role for any team

Absolutely hate Paul though

Well Harden's defense does tend to make people look better than they usually do.

Reminded me of when Redick scored 41 pts on 9 three pointers against second ranked Longhorns in 2005. I wanted Houston to draft him 8th overall in 2006 but they chose Rudy Gay instead.

Gay was Grizzlies pick

Return to Houston Rockets
