ClutchFans Game Thread: Clippers @ Rockets 12/22/2017

Also no one on the Warriors would get treated the way Harden did by the officials down the stretch - in their worst nightmares.

 

yep warriors are well coached and deep enough to beat scrub teams even if 3 of their starters are out

 

We did not lose because of officiating but it is so hard to ignore how terrible they can be at times.

All those flopping calls against Harden against a guy that clearly should have been fouled out in the first place.

 

Yeah. Like Puff said.... "we can do this every weekend".

Is that iight with you ?

 

just me or is google boxscore showing up a hater who edited Capela's name on the sheet?

If anybody talked themselves into the idea that we were as deep as the warriors they were being silly.

 

The dude had 6 fouls and was still in the game

 

The 3 offensive fouls by Harden :

1. a little guy like the size of Altuve was trying to front him, instead of just stand still and get the ball easily, Harden tried his favorite move as climbing on his defender's back to look for a foul. Horrible decision.

2. A flop, obviously, but again Harden's little push was totally not necessary and which also a bad habit he loved to create space.

3. Before the final offensive foul, he actually clearly pushed his defender on the earlier procession and the ref did not call that, so he was getting the benefit already, and when the guy was selling it the 3rd time straight, even that could be a half flop but under such situation, as the leader of the team, you must be smarter than that.

CP3 always like to b**** about the calls of the ref than probably anyone else in the league, but you will never see him making mental mistakes like these.

 

Some of you guys are some scrub ass posters.

Ryan Anderson wasn't brought here to create his own shot, or rebound or play defense. I'm sorry if you guys expect more, but Anderson was NEVER that player. The fact that he got paid insane money doesn't mean he is going to be a different player.

Dude was brought here to shoot if you can't devise a way to get him a shot what the hell are we doing here? Make plays to get Anderson a shot, if he misses those shots then ok he deserves all the ridicule.

Asking Anderson to create his own shot is ****ing stupid.

 

LOL trade Durant with Harden last year and GSW stills the chip last year

while the Rockets win 5 games less at least

 

I disagree. The score and the time, we very well might have won despite not playing well. Yes were played bad but to assume those two plays don't impact the outcome then why play the game at all. Those fouls counted, the FTs counted, the Techs counted, etc... so don't try and tell me those plays didn't have an impact.

 

That was truly pathetic. You are lit up by Austin Rivers and Lou Williams?! Williams maybe, but Austin Rivers? That is sad. When you make the coach's son who is only playing because he is the coach's son look like a hall of famer, you have stopped playing defense. Not only that, but the Rockets have stopped playing as a team. This looked so much like teams of the past when everyone watched Harden iso.

 

I wasn’t taking about that....I was referring to the implosion at the end. Intentionally running over the rookie after he got the flop call. Intentionally fouling out and then picking up the technical. He was extremely aggressive but to a fault in those instances

 

He can put up all the points he wants but if he is the only one scoring the team isn’t going anywhere. You need ball movement so everyone can get the ball some and scoring can be spread out. We are a better team when we don’t play harden iso ball THATS FACTS BUDDY

 

That game was fixed. NBE wants their poster child larriors back at the top of the league. smh

 

Ever since Woj reported that the PlayersUnion talked with the NBA Refs Association about the officiating this year (which was right before the Lakers game), I feel like the refs have been screwing us over down the stretch.

Please tell me this is just a coincidence and doesn't involve CP3 being the head of the PlayersUnion right?

 

Naw, It's his complete name.

 

he actually had 7 fouls and a flop and was still in the game.

 

They had an impact but Rivers and Lou should not be beating this team tonight at home.

It infuriates me that they let Ryno guard Rivers over and over again, sometimes switching is bad, especially against a guy that is extremely hot and is begging for Ryno to try and guard him.

 

I’m sending a care package to that island. Keep fighting the good fight my friend!
