ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Jazz 4/22/2019 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 4)

We couldn’t rebound. I think that’s the number 1 issue. Hopefully Clint is healthy by next game.

 

Barkley has said that numerous times, and turner sports go out of their way to trash to rockets because of the players on the team. Notice how Barkley and shaq hype ben simmons, trae young, and other lightskin player. Reggie Miller and Doris Burke is bias as well and i believe that affects mvp voting. If Harden was going up againist a lightskin player for MVP last year instead of Lebron he wouldnt have won the award

 

Yeah, he was on the bench, I was going to mention that earlier

 

If the Jazz are getting away with illegal defense, than have Clint camp in the paint and stop switching him to the perimeter which only accomplishes getting Capella even more winded and having absolutely no defensive presence in the paint while also having no defensive rebounding.


These are the things that MDA doesn't pick in a game and it's absurdly pathetic for a NBA level head coach not to pick up something so obvious and change his game plan

 

Not worried at the slightest because guys who had off games tonight will surely play better here in Htown. Personally I had a suspicion that the Jazz be it pride or whatever will win tonight. The Rockets felt at ease going 1-1 on the road and probably didn’t go out full bore tonight whilst Utah pretty much gave it all.

Don’t panic and stay the course.

 

Game of Thrones wasn't showing tonight?

 

If the defending team touches it sure. It does NOT happen a lot that an offensive rebounder tips it into the backcourt and is gathered.

 

If you get your heads down and your asses up, then we'll get this thing in Houston.

Geaux Rox!

 

He is a notorious troll.

 

The more games we played, the worse our offense get.

Meanwhile Jazz playing better and better.

 

Ok. "A lot" is subjective. I guess the main factual point is a back tap of a missed shot into the backcourt is not an over and back violation.

 

ken mauer reffed game 3 and tony brothers reffed game 4.

 

It's because our offense is so easy to read. Teams can easily predict our offense after 2 or so games against us.

 

Of course they did, because we only scored 12 points in the final quarter. We only shot truly trash till the final quarter. We was shooting around 47% from the 3pt until the final quarter.... then it went down to 37%. We did miss like 15 3pt attempts in a row..... shots we would normally make.

The Jazz just pack the paint and hope we miss the 3pt shot. It's risky as hell, which why they're down 3-1 in the series. Will we shoot that badly again next game? No, of course we won't. If they're willing to play that type of defense against us, I'll take it everytime... because we'll make those shots next time.

 

Dude needs to go back to Lin fansite

 

The Rockets didn't lose because of Jimmy....why doesn't Jimmy do more floaters ? Because Goober is wearing Capela out under the basket. Does anyone really think Clint serves us best on defense out on the 3 pt. line ? He had 7 rebounds tonight, CP3 had 8. No wonder we were out rebounded 52-35. The main ingredient in rebounding is wanting the ball more than the other guy. We will win Wednesday but we gave away a win tonight. They wanted it more than us.

 

The problem with that is Capela is offering no type of movement in the paint lately. I don't know if it's because he's still sick or whatever, but it's definitely making us quite limited. All Harden can do is either run to the paint and go up with a contested layup/floater or pass it out because Gobert is picking up quite quickly. Capela has to give him a better option, which is what he was doing in the first 2 games.

 

This statement is ridiculous.

 

all of these videos on youtube on how to defend James Harden, pippen and espn joined the party as well

but steph curry gets to torch the league and not one breakdown on how to stop him

wake up its colorism
