ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Nuggets 12/15/2025

this. Any of the other 4 guys should have taken that shot. I don’t get it. Use Sengun to set a pick for one of them.

 

that is exactly what I plan to do now. You wrote it down as if you are reading my mind. I've been a hardcore fan since 1994 and I think it's time to retire to being a casual bandwagoner

 

You guys are really making fools of yourselves. Of course, nobody will remember when your screaming mvp at him when he turns the corner.

 

At some point Udoka has to realize that chasing 60 or 70 Wins is not the real goal......it is to sacrifice some wins to see how certain matchups go....

• Beating up on the Hawks, Suns, Memphis, Clippers should not be the end goal.
• Denver did just that in the offseason, shore up their biggest weakness, depth.....
• I do think the team has to change the assistant coaches.
• Strategize to mini blow out Denver in the Offseason.

 

DAAAMMMMNNN



I thought we shipped him out to phoenix

 

Jalen Green wasn't the answer so go sit down in the corner and chill

 

They were missing basically 3 starters..

 

Why would any team play foul games with the best offensive rebounding team that has worst inbound % in the league?

 

I’m not confident that we’d beat the Spurs in a playoff series, but I don’t rate the Lakers that highly so it would be kinda embarrassing to lose to them

 

.. this Denver missing two starters is foolish. Rockets miss some key rotation pieces too. I like Rockets chances in the playoffs against Denver... don't know if deep down Denver want to play the Rockets

 

Exactly sybau. Complaining like a woman then when logic hits you in the face you short-circuit (like a woman).

 

Exactly

 

Jabari seems to like to hit big shots I wish Sengun passed it back. But anyone else on the court was a shooter. Should have used Sengun for a pick for one of the shooters. Oh well. I think we actually played good tonight. We were right there despite the refs clearly effing us

 

Ime won't do that no matter how bad he is playing. That rule is only used on our young guys.

 

I looked at the NBA rules for incidental rules and turns out its basically up to the refs.

In general, if the movement from both players is natural and feet get tangled, it's not a foul. So even with that contact it doesn't look intentional at all, they are both running,

Since I guess it is up to the refs discretion they decided at that point to screw us. Maybe it would feel better if they weren't calling numerous soft calls for Denver while ignoring fouls against us.

 

Also as bad as our offense can look nothing annoys me more than giving a great offensive team open 3 after 3 after 3..

 

Watching what LeBum did to the refs and Dillon Brooks getting tko by the refs, it has that same feeling of refs hugging certain players. No NBA players would of stay in the game what Lebron did from physically tackling Dillon to holding the arm of the refs. Now to this game, the tripping foul on Amen is just bogus. I never seen where you foul the guy, you get 1 shot and the ball. If you fouled, you should get a 2 foul shots?!?!?!? The refs improvised that foul call so they would not let Nukkets lose and not let Rockets win. Refs again determining the outcome.

 

Jokic and Murray gets free throws like prime Harden. Tough to beat when they consistently hit shots and you’re not allowed to breathe on them, and oh guess what? If you do breathe on them, they’re like 90% FT shooters.

Watching this game, I could empathize with Dallas Mavericks fans from the 2006 Finals where D Wade got like 20 FTs a game.

 

I would’ve been fine anyone on the floor other than Alpi since Amen was inbounder
