Game 68: Rockets host Clippers 7PM 3/16 

Post#1 » by Mr. E » Tue Mar 15, 2016 6:13 pm

Coming off of the most entertaining win of the season (admittedly against a terribly depleted Grizzlies roster) the Rockets next host an important game with another team they are looking up at in the standings, the LA Clippers.

The team didn't need Harden in the last game to play too many minutes, but he'll have to bring his A-Game for this matchup. Howard continues to be steady, Motiejunas is quickly rounding into form and with the addition of Beasley the team's bench unit is looking a lot better. The two key players in my eyes for this game (beyond Harden) will be Beverley & Ariza. Their shots need to be falling against this Clippers lineup.

Go Rockets!

Tonight is a test. Let's see if the "new" Rockets show up or if we see business as usual.

Was the game time changed or did I just mess up the time?

I could have sworn this was a 7:00 game.

Ariza is garbage now. They had to switch Harden into Reddick because Trevor couldn't guard him. Seriously. And Dwight has been pouring because he hasn't been able to shoot his ugly hooks that he makes 40% of.

Harden and the Houston garbage made an appearance tonight.

If we resign Howard I will be crushed. Please don't Morey. He's already bad most nights at 30. He will be awful in two years

If they could manage to get the game with 10 going into 4Q there could be a chance but this has been ugly.

James Harden has been our best player on offense AND defense. He's the only one trying out there. Well, so are Brewer and Bev but they just aren't good

And why does JBB keep hacking Jordan? It's killing us. He's in a grove. You gave them 14 free points. He doesn't know how to hack effectively. We never back at the end of quarter to get the last shots like every team with a half decent coach.

Did Capela get hurt? He is the only player with a + plus minus and he's only played 7 minutes. JBB is GARBAGE.

I've missed most of the game tonight. Sounds like a good one to miss.

See? Instead of a letting the clips get the last shot THATS when you hack Jordan. But nope. Layup.

Dmo and Clint played 14 minutes combined. So stupid. I hate this garbage ass coach. We FINALLY had a solid rotation without a rotating door then in a game where Clint is playing MUCH better than Dwight he gets SEVEN minuets. This guy is a joke.

JBB is a clown. 7 minutes and 0 post-ups for D-Mo who is being guarded by a SF? What a joke.
