I could be wrong but all of the SACvOKC games this season have been highly competitive. There's something about this team that the Thunder just can't figure out. Or maybe it's just the usual OKC who can't take care of lotto teams the way they're supposed to.

They have been competitive - not sure why. Same deal w/ OKC and Dallas.

:lol: The best are his backhanded insults masked as compliments when your favorite (non-Rockets) team has a big win... I love the one where he called teams without stars “cute”.

I care and so do many fans at clutchfans. The lack of energy in the crowd is unfortunate and definitely affects the experience; would much rather have a better home court advantage. That all changes in the playoffs though.


Clutchfans whines about everything. EVERYTHING! There are Rockets fans who even go there anymore since it went to pot a few years ago.
In my opinion I'm not sure they are an accurate representation of most Rockets fans, at least not the ones I know.


Sad but true.
I'm as die-hard a Rockets fan as you'll find and even I find that place unreadable sometimes.
Too many interlopers and trolls who are just there to stir the pot.

And yeah, the whining does get epic sometimes, but that may be true of any pro sports fansite dedicated to one team.


You're probably right. I just thought it was funny he mentioned CF like it was objective proof. :lol:

The spurs trading 2s for 3s....this goes as predicted. I dont know if the playoffs go like this if Kahwii is back...we saw the Spurs handle these rockets last year and honestly i think a healthy spurs team can run with these guys when the playoffs slow down!

What's the deal with Mills not getting back to the game?

He got yanked after the first 5 minutes but all other starters went back.

Excellent, but he's Brandon Jennings. Defensive effort and moving the ball aren't things he does consistently.



That 11/9/6 in 13 mins is a jokic statline :lol:


Jennings needs more than one good game in a row...dude kills it every 5th game....
