Yeah I'm done with this game. Between inijuries and it bring 8 vs 5 this is unwatchable.

The Rockets have just 14 free throws.

Even if you took away ALL of our FTs, we'd still be leading by 11 lmao

At this point of the season, I don't think anybody can argue with this claim.

I don't know about your ref complaints man, from a fan of neither team, not really seeing this supposed bias against Utah. Both teams got calls that did and/or didn't go their way at different times through the game, Rockets have just been better. 2 more made FT's and committing the same amount of fouls while 2 of their rotation guys have 5 fouls is not the difference in this game.

I'm just not a huge fan of Westbrook's game come playoff time if his jumper isn't falling. It's a little too inconsistent. It's not entirely his fault but the way he runs things offensively where him, Melo, and George take turns shooting is bad to watch.

And against a veteran rangy defender like Ariza.
Plus having to help cover James Harden.
Just a bad combination all around.

Some casual fans will still be in the dark about how talented Mitchell is.

Chris Webber saying Giannis is not an MVP candidate. :lol:

Imagine if Eric Gordon gets hot at the same time as Ryan Anderson

MovieMuscle · Post #532 » by **MovieMuscle** » Fri Dec 8, 2017 5:32 am

lol this game is so rigged for the Jazz.

Who knew at this point of the season the nets would be 1 gb of the thunder including a head 2 head victory!

MovieMuscle · Post #534 » by **MovieMuscle** » Fri Dec 8, 2017 5:33 am

The Jazz is making a bunch of unimpressive open 3s and free throws. Hmmm, how else can the game get closer?

Webber saying Giannis is not an MVP candidate but says Embiid is... dafuq

The 'not a good enough record' argument was fine... except he started off his list with Embiid :lol:

He still looked really good I think. Hard for a rookie when he's getting an Ariza/Tucker/Luc rotation thrown at him for the whole game

In this last run how many points were free throws? lol

It's not his fault that he settles for contested mid-range jumpers or it's not his fault that he misses most of them?
