ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Thunder 3/11/2014

OKC and LAC both have the mental edge over the Rockets - you can see it in the way they come out and play against us and how Rockets respond, or don't is more like it. OKC definitely has our number. We must overcome them like Bulls did the Pistons in 90s. That means Howard and Harden must lead the way and play aggressive and dictate the tempo/play physical.

 

LOL :grin::grin:

 

dwight needs to step up

james got the memo and is doing that..he needs to be more aggressive.but it's on dwight now..

 

because fair weathered is a better than calling them manic-depressive?

 

Bad news: Thunder are young too.

We're gettin smoked, no excuses.

 

The only way to win against the Thunders is Howard being dominant ( unlikely though)

 

Team can't hit any shots and haven't gotten many clean looks tonight. They are just too athletic for Lin and Parsons. This is one of those games players like Troy Daniels, Covington and Canaan would be more useful due to their marksmanship(case in point, the Lakers game against OKC). Hopefully Harden is more aggressive in the 2nd.

 

Everyone has AIDS.

 

The key to being competitive with the Thunder is to play small ball with Parsons at PF. It neutralizes they're best defensive weapon in Ibaka. He himself takes away our biggest strength which is getting baskets at the rim. Spread the court and use our speed to our advantage.

 

Well I do recall last time we beat OKC Harden had 46-6-7 and Lin had 29-7-6

 

Portland repeat

McHale needs to go small

 

rockets playing like a bunch pansies


ten missed free throws! wtf. missed shots. playing scared especially LIN.

 

Why does Howard look so damn weak right now? Get it together!

 

I'm sorry. But Bev's the only one pumped for this game. The rest of the team looks scary. Harden look like he's mailed it in for his former team

 

Heat Pacers and Blazers...we are not superhuman. As much as they try not to be, these guys are emotionally spent. Especially after that Blazers game we stole from the refs.

 

Dwight really needs to put Steven Adams in his place.

 

this thread is great for my ignore list!!!

 

No s**t- I'm ragging on people saying this game is over already- duh.

 

I dont like our body language so far. It needs to change for us to come back in this game, specially with Harden and Howard. They need to pick it up.

 

Dwight Howard has a negative offensive RAPM and is considered the least efficient post-player in terms of turnover percentage and points per possession. This should not be news!
