Houston Rockets Thread 18/19 - The Sound Of Revenge

lmaooo good grief Nunnally

 

I hope not

 

This is gross

 

They may still win this game, but my goodness, at this rate, Trier and Mitchell (a 9ppg and 4ppg pairing) will have career highs.

 

I had tweeted that Harden would need 70 vs the Knicks just to win by two, and I was pretty close I hate that due to the inconsistency with everyone not named Harden, he's having to go to the ends of the earth for wins. It's like he's playing multiple games like his 60 point triple double vs the Magic last year. But glad they got the win, even though PJ Tucker tried his damnest to give the game away. Some god awful decisions by him the closing moments of the game. They were able to click up defensively in the 3rd, which is pretty much what put them back in the game. Harden doing the heavy lifting, EG's 3s and timely defense, play Ennis even having a good stretch over the course of the game is what evened everything out. Faried made some nice contributions too. When Capela gets back, he's gonna do wonders. He's pretty much showing so far that his decline in stats isn't due to ability, but simply not being on the floor. I'm dreading this Raptors game with the way our current roster is, but oh well, I've been surprised before by this team, so it's whatever.

 

Wasn't really expecting this game at all. I figured they'd give a valiant effort, but simply not having enough bodies would do them in against a team like the Raptors. Glad I was wrong The Rockets pretty much dominated from the start, all the way to a hiccup in the 3rd, extended the lead, then made it hilariously close at the end Loved the effort from all the guys tonight. Didn't take a Harden superhuman effort, as the supporting cast all brought something. Shout out to the Faried pickup. He's exactly the type of player we needed at that spot. This team will be pretty deep once Paul and Capela get back, and ideally House re-signed.











Just think if Lowry's 3 had counted SMH
