Upcoming Road Trip - Thoughts?

1-3 would be a W coming out of there, 2/3 would be great, 3/3 is impossible. Cannot go 0-3 if we want this homestand to mean something.

 

1-2 - motivated Harden finally wins.
We beat the lakers
GS in a close one.

DD

 

Agree. If it's even close they will allow both those teams get away with blatant fouls, yet call the slightest touch fouls on us.

 

I'd prefer Jalen go off on the Warriors and do that scream face Curry did in our 3rd game.

 

Rockets on the road trip: Let the bodies hit the floor!

 

Honestly, all winnable games. 79-3.

 

We go up against a bunch of cagey veterans on this trip.

 

I’m ready for some boring road Wins!!!!!!!

 

Amen needs polishing. I hope he’s been studying because he was one of the issues for us before his injury

 

The clippers should have some huge exploited for us since we know harden and Russ pretty well. Should be able to exploit Harden defense if we get him on the perimeter . Plus they lack depth since the trade. The lakers if fully healthy could definitely ge their revenge.

the warriors game will be most interesting to see what adjustment they made since the first matchup. We had it under control until sengun came back in and they just went at him on the perimter with Steph.

 

Hope we just get at least one win out of these three. I'm worried the Clips are about to get it together just in time to play us.

 

I don't think anyone would have guessed which team would have a 6 game win streak and which had a 5 game losing streak when Houston traveled to LA this season.

All 3 are tough games because they all have stars that can carry them to a win, but all are looking up in the standings.

If they somehow go 3-0, that would really put the league on notice.

 

Yep, it will be. My guess is that Amen won't be playing as much as he was before if they keep winning like they have been with Holiday. It's a pretty good rotation right now.

 

Didn't VanVleet do the job on Curry in the 2019 Finals?
Seems stupid not to go back to that?
Clamp the rest & don't let them get out of their slump.

All 3 teams are probably going to finish above us but need to break out of their slump. A good chance to up our win tally tbh.

 

I hope so.

I'd put all 3 of them in the same category. Old, regressing & injury prone.

All 3 of them have important players in all those categories.

Really depends who works it out first I guess.

 

Road trip? Hell yeah. Win all the games.
