ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Warriors 5/8/2019 (Playoffs Round 2, Game 5)

See you guys Friday

 

This is why we will lose the series. There is always weight on his shoulders to make it happen. The Warriors don't have **** to worry about. So they can play freely and will rain threes. I wish Durant never got hurt.

 

No one really expected them to suddenly beat the warriors.

 

Why can't he try to attack, put pressure on them, he just pound the ball the till 10sec.. $hit driving me crazy cause he letting the moment go past...

 

It seemed they were scared to seize the moment. I'm really scared we will mentally roll over in game 6. This was our shot, we failed miserably and cp3 has become a 40 million version of Jeryd Bayless, completely irrelevant.

 

Small does work with Durant in, our small ball lineup has been beating theirs for awhile, they only put in Looney cause Durant got injured. Small ball has been working, then Dantoni saw we were getting beat on the boards and immediately put Clint back in, and Curry if he gets hot can put you in a hole real fast. Now we probably will see Clint more in this game now that KD is probably gone.

 

We had it all there for the taking...didn't get the job done. No excuses.

Rockets in seven.

 

The Rockets are 0-2 against the Warriors without Durant. They can't guard the Warriors when they're not playing KD iso ball. It's that simple.

 

The sad thing is he got those 2 points with such ease.

 

Im glad you are positive about this my friend haha.

 

I get what you are saying in theory. But when no one can hit a shot, we are basically banking on Harden to hit contested 3's while double teamed on every possession, which in itself is losing basketball.

 

Look, i may not think we can win but if KD wasnt here to start this series, this year or last year, we would be crushing them. Stop giving out your opinion like someone on here wants it.

 

Capela is garbage against Embiid, Lopez, Adams and will probably suck against Gasol too. He's a soft system center, you guys.

 

Go. To. Hell.

 

Lol. I swear... being a Rockets fan has to be one of the most stressful hobbies ever.

Fought so hard to get into the game in the third quarter. Then, just became passive and do nothing in the 4th. Ok. Whatever.

 

Nothing is simple. If it were, we would have won this game. We will win in Houston and then win game 7 in Oakland. It won’t be simple. It won’t be easy, but we’ll do it.

 

My opinion matters just as much as your opinion. They're both meaningless in a homer forum. I'll revisit these comments after elimination Harden shows up on Friday...or they get bounced in a game 7.

 

I am sorry but I have never been so critical and negative about a player on this board, but if Paul doesn't get his **** together the next 2 games then we are absolutely ****ed.

 

Nene or Faried way better option over Clint, its making me sick seeing him miss layups on smaller guys at-least the other two can finish at the dang rim. Cp3 is just a dribble machine that goes nowhere. An horrible postseason from him. Our two big dollar guys are sucking it up.

 

curry pretty much took the first half off to be fair. there is no way im blaming james for this loss. i have more of a problem with the defense to be honest. cant get a stop, cant get a rebound. we got killed by kevon fukkin looney all night.
