ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Grizzlies 3/27/2026

Should be a win.

Sheppard and KD can carve this team up.

 

Spoiler

 

.....Wagler moves on.

 

I have a random question: Where's Steve?

Fred has been travelling with the team and is on the bench every game, but Adams got hurt and disappeared.

Feel like we need him around to pull these assholes into line.

 

Another crappy team and this year we love losing to those in embarrassing fashion.

 

Will Jerome play? I've only caught glimpses of him this season.

 

Adams was on the bench last home stand.

 

I thought about typing this before the game in the Bulls game thread, but got lazy.

There are two type of 'tanking' teams that sometimes when those teams don't want to lose.

1. Bulls example

Players have pride and were at home, This Bulls team frankly started tanking way too late. They are bad tankers. Bad tanking teams will try to win games. Scouting of 3pt attempts was well-known in advance for the Bulls. After the middy guys left (DeRozen, Levine), they shoot decent number of 3's and have had awful games when those 3's don't go in. But math will math and those 3's drained against the Rockets. *shrugs*

2. Pacers example
Good tanking teams. Sly fox Rick Carlisle expertly can turn lineups OFF/ON. But situations where they'd try to win is when a L-streak goes too long, they have to end it before things goes into record books. Pacers turned it ON and beat Magic to end that L-streak.



Grizzlies are tanking. Their L-streak is only 4. They are very close with Mavs and Pels. They are tanking, So even if Ime start all our bench guys, Grizz will still find a way to lose.

 

That was such classless behavior. That was his “peak achievement” in life. lol


GO ROCKETS. AS IN GO AWAY


JUST FN WIN OR JUST FN FUKK OFF

 

It's another game they should win. But that's meaningless with this team. They could easily go in there and play as poorly as they did against the Bulls.
