ClutchFans Game Thread: Lakers @ Rockets 3/16/2026

That is all we need to win the season series

 

The team looks better without someone holding the ball and posting up from the 3 pt line and then being a red carpet on defense. Don’t kill me.

 

Whining like Luka and Lebron.

 

I’ve never seen an entire team whine and beg for fouls as much as the Lakers. Watch the bench. Even the reserves are up on their feet directing the refs to phantom calls.



Game starts. Entire Lakers franchise yelling at a ref:

 

When did we get Finney-Smith..............................

Massive hustle first half

 

We are in the lead… why they talking bout the lakers… oh yeah it’s the freaking lakers… sigh

 

I guess the halftime show is about the Lakers

 

It's only the first half. And I know who I am rooting for... but I imagined the Lakers would be blowing us out by now. I watched them against Denver and they looked nice.

Matchups and defense are a thing after all I guess.

 

Over the years when there is a choice, a lot of times I prefer listening to the national TV broadcast vs. local to get some freshness. But I just can't take this sorry NBC/Peacock duo any longer.

Mike Fratello needs to retire. He is dull and his commentary adds neither substance nor entertainment value. He has nothing left in the tank as a broadcaster.

 

bounce pass ball movement

 

and they say he can't shoot

 

Ayton wishes he was Capela

 

I hope I never have to watch Ayton on the Rockets. He’s horrible

 

Luka is really not trying on defense.

 

Ayton finally scored 1 point...lol

 

KD needs to tighten up the passes. Telegraphing too much.

 

Durant....my word stop turning it over.

 

KD is the worst passer i have ever seen.

 

Thank you Tari

 

this boy tari is so goofy, how you lose that ball?? lol
