2019 - 2020 Houston Rockets Thread of Heroes Taking Shots

[TonyTexas 10515]

Scary to think where he’ll be by the time his contract is up. 

 

[NowThis 931]

Dantoni should bench him in crunchtime. F his ego. His teammates work their ass off to win, only to be squandered by this idiot.

Some talk on the sports interwebs that Russ has multiple injured fingers on his shooting hand, severity unknown but mention of needing surgery. It's still early in the season, hope the Rockets can get it together and win some of these road games against other conference playoff contenders.

[UDontKnow 10446]

This doesn't help Westbrook's case either: https://www.yahoo.com/sports/russell-westbrook-brother-reportedly-asked-135855720.html

Another note, really wish the Rockets did not give up Montrezl Harrell in that trade to get CP3. He and Lou Williams show up against the Rockets.

Doc Rivers should have been asked to leave for rushing the court.

tied at 76, the Clips bench has outscored Rox bench 32-13.  Badly need Gordon and Green to return.

and Trainwreck blows the layup trying to be too cute.

Green is out for the season. Gordon fucking sucks. The bench is hit or miss. They need another wing and D'Antoni should never play 5 guards again.

I'm pretty sure his dislocated one finger 2 games ago when he fell awkwardly.

[perfectchaos007 6648]

We let the Mavs score 78 points in the first half. Damn 

[SilasCoade 2622]

Luka does what he wants.

[UDontKnow 10446]

D'Antoni really prepared the team for this tilt. Boneheaded turnovers on the initial few possessions set the tone for this game. Utterly unacceptable and now on a 3 game losing streak.

i heard Green could return by April. Gordon is capable of good games, right now the bench is garbage, only has 11 pts today of the 123. Trainwreck should not play the last 6 minutes of the game, crunchtime.

[Zavala 1384]

Man Harden just got Kawaii'ed. No call of course. Yikes.

[Zavala 1384]

 

[Zavala 1384]

I love it, if Rus ain't gonna get the rebound he cherry picks for easy buckets

[Zavala 1384]

Harden finally shot that "Harden Summer 2019" fade out of bounds from the corner. Made it.

[Pimphand 5756]

Man the Miami strip club effect got some serious confirmation last night.

[billfromlaketravis 11487]

I assume Gary Clark has been in the D League all year. Where did that come from?

I know this is the wrong thread, but I hate James Harden and think he's terrible for the game.

60 points in three quarters. So terrible for the game.  Worse than player-fan brawls and baggy shorts. God, how will we explain this to our children?

[BigOrange1 6441]

that play to end the 3rd quarter was cool as shit.

[Tommy Nobis 905]

How is that not reviewable? Refs better get this shit right

[Tommy Nobis 905]

What a meltdown. Missed dunk determined the outcome. Fuck NBA refs.

[Southernthunder 38]

What a crock of shit. LMAO. That was an offensive foul??? 

[Southernthunder 38]

None of these refs should be able to officiate again. Wow

[GHOSTUSER 361]

What fucking horseshit. 3 refs and they don’t count Harden’s dunk 

[GHOSTUSER 361]

Westbrook has been fucking terrible. 

[BigOrange1 6441]

wow, what the fuck happened in the 4th quarter?  i stepped away after the 3rd.

[Tommy Nobis 905]

wow, what the fuck happened in the 4th quarter?  i stepped away after the 3rd.

Same shit that’s happened for years under Harden/Dantoni.

[GHOSTUSER 361]

2 OT. Sheesh. Westbrick has been fucking garbage, he is the main reason we blew that lead

NBA refs are a fucking joke

[GHOSTUSER 361]

Fire D’antoni. No accountability or coaching. 

[ChickenSandwich 9837]

Are we up to nine offensive fouls yet?  Fucking shameless. And fuck that goofy bastard #25 who flops damn near anytime he is touched. Biggest bitch on the floor. 

[perfectchaos007 6648]

NBA will probably apologize for not Counting Hardens bucket and nothing will be done to fix the reffing. The NBAs apologies continue to be hollow 

[Pasken 1309]

How was that not a shooting foul on Derrick White #4 before harden touched Derozen?

DeJounte Murray and it is because NBA refs blow ass similar to how D'Antoni blows ass.

[Tylerocks 2553]

Bad loss.

Bad officiating

Bad James in crunchtime.

 

I'd love to see the geeks in the Nerdery at Toyota Center statalyze James' performance in close and late games.  Eyeball test over his time here with the Rockets and he's complete dogshit. 

Dribble, cross over dribble, dribble...drive>>>>Offensive foul.

Dribble, cross over dribble, dribble...drive>>>>Turnover.

Dribble, cross over dribble, dribble...Pull up for three>>>>>Brick or airball.

 

[HtownHorn 14685]

Harden and Westbrook combined to miss 50 shots last night. Sometimes, D'Antoni needs to be the coach.

[Rockethorn1978 6079]

Last nights game is another great example of why this team won't get out of the second round and that's if they get out of the first. I've never seen a team blow double digits leads so consistently as this one and while they have still won some games you cannot win a title trending that way all season. There inability to close out games after having a big lead blows my mind, especially given how shitty the spurs are.

[Lurch 5930]

Do you have stats for that or are you simply biased by the team you watch most often?

[Lurch 5930]

He should have told them to make more? Or are you suggesting he ask JAMES FUCKING HARDEN to attempt fewer shots?
