2017-18 Rockets Thread

Nice to see the support players hitting their 1st shots of the game.

[TexArcher 38816]

Much better energy on both ends to start!

[UDontKnow 10557]

Some things I noticed in this first quarter: Harden played 9 minutes and Ryan Anderson is still on the bench. Nene over him for backup 5.

Rockets need to keep piling it up. Don't give Utah any room to breathe.

[kopp0e 1135]

Nice shot from Paul... the commentator says "Wizardry", but he's a Rocket...

[TexArcher 38816]

Beat that ass!  This is beautiful.

[Artificial Iverson 107]

Cap is so much better than Gobert

[Dutchrudder 11227]

This is the version of the rockets we need for 6 games to beat the warriors. Love it, Capella is owning that paint tonight!!!

[Teddy Tucker 18]

Thank god capella is a rfa. Rockets need to match any offer even if it’s damn near a max

main reason he's playing so hard.  Going from current salary to mad money is a hell of a shift in lifestyle.

How the fuck do we let O’Neale dribble down the court TWICE full court for layups back to back!

This team gets too comfortable with big leads and D'Antoni still takes too long to call timeout.

[Simon Honeybone 113]

Seriously Dumb'Toni next time let them score 20 before the timeout...

[TexArcher 38816]

Relax, y'all.  Of course they made a run.  We got this.

[Dutchrudder 11227]

Lol wtf was that 3??? Everything going in tonight

[TexArcher 38816]

Nothing wrong with that screen.  It's not a foul just because that dumbass didn't see it coming.

[runthebone 8322]

Refs tried to bring them back into the game with that horseshit momentum illegal screen call.  Fuck you, refs.  Good answer.

[GHOSTUSER 361]

Nice to see the team that had 3 double digit win streaks and was the best in the NBA with 65 wins back again in the first half. Welcome back Eric Gordon. They can beat the Warriors playing like this.  Not so much how we played Game 2.

[CurlyDumps 4618]

That’s more fucking like it.

[BigOrange1 6604]

this is fantastic. 

[UDontKnow 10557]

70-40 Rockets over the Jazz at halftime. The Rockets should just trade buckets with the Jazz in the second half. Save energy for another beating to be delivered to the Jazz in Game 4.

[TexArcher 38816]

70 point half and only 10 of them from Harden.  That's pretty ridiculous.

[CurlyDumps 4618]

Buddy just texted me that he dropped a grand on the Rockets 1H.  Usually bets 100-200. He’s gruntled.

[Sidney Sherman 66]

Like I said previously, Rockets in 5.

[CurlyDumps 4618]

Pretty good half by marginal role player / minus defender Clint Capela.

If he plays any better, it will be an Hakeem Olajuwon (smaller man) owning David Robinson (larger man) type of situation. 

[HtownHorn 15243]

Nice 1st half, go put 30 on them in the 3Q and get the bench plenty of extended 4Q minutes.

[UDontKnow 10557]

Seriously James, you don't need to take another 3 point shot.

Woe woe. But he's doing very well within his ability. 

Let CP3 and Harden create the shots, finish strong. Defend. 

Can't wait to see how him and Nene can do against the Warriwhores.

[TonyTexas 10682]

Seriously James, you don't need to take another 3 point shot.

Up 35 and you’re still a bitch

I would call it "redonkulous", but in a good way...

 

 

[CurlyDumps 4618]

Harden’s shots are all short.

You changed your name from the Shag, but didn't lose your obsession with me. You're the bitch here.

[HtownHorn 15243]

How do not even review that? Gobert hit him in his head with his elbow.

[Simon Honeybone 113]

Pushing double Jizz Hands shit in is amazing.

WHY ARE THE FUCKING STARTERS IN????? FUCK OFF

It looked like a flagrant, but maybe it was because Gobert was trying to clear space to position himself for a potential rebound and Harden was in the air? Or more than likely, it's because the Rockets have been up 30+ and might as well keep the game moving.

[TonyTexas 10682]

Good god man. We are are kicking their ass but you still find something to complain about. You must be miserable.

I wasn't complaining. Just a suggestion that Harden should take it easy and save energy for Game 4. But of course, you're obsessed with my posts. You must be miserable.

[BigOrange1 6604]

would like to see gerald green knock down like six 3's here.

...and harden to take the rest of the night off.

[UDontKnow 10557]

LOVE IT!

Obligatory. Fuck John Stockton!

I just don’t understand. You bitch if we play poorly. You bitch when we play well. My only conclusion is that you’re a bitch.

[BigOrange1 6604]

not a fan of paul, capela and gordon being out there right now.

Then his head slapped off the court. Suprised he got back up, looks concussed. They need to keep the starters out. Let Ariza and Gorden finish off these scrubs and send Mittens home.

Guess he wants to be extra sure. Good thing Harden hasn't played too minutes tonight. 

EDIT: This is why D'Antoni put Harden and Tucker back in.

this is so dumb.  the rockets are up 24.  the jazz aren't going to score 24 more points this game.

[Simon Honeybone 113]

Eat fuck Dumbtoni this is beyond dumb

[BigOrange1 6604]

harden, paul, tucker, capela, gordon, ariza......none of them should play another second tonight.
