Houston Rockets Thread - Preseason vs Spurs (Friday)

[jewbacca2]

Who the **** does PJ Tucker think he is? lol

 

[markangelo]

*sigh*

suns just wanted it more tonight 

on to the next one

hopefully Jsmoove is alright, Indiana is coming up, we need him especially with Jones out..

 

[Peep Game]

I hate these types of Rockets games. They just got out hustled all over the place when it should not have even happened. **** PJ Tucker. That piece of trash thinks he's so much better than he actually is

 

[Peep Game]

I didn't know Josh Smith's injury was a calf, I though it was a minor ankle injury these body are just piling up at the wrong time

 

[earldagoat]

Hopefully Smoove is fine.

 

[Peep Game]

Well well, looks like one of our international draft picks will finally make it to the US. I forgot he existed

Injury update for everybody else

good start against pacers so far, hopefully we can sustain this 

 

[Peep Game]

We're all Rockets fans in here, we knew there was a good chance the Rockets would let them back in the game

 

[markangelo]

If Jsmoove plays like this every game, we're going to be a tough team in the playoffs… Add a healthy Jones and Howard 

 

Gotta love that Ariza/Brewer combo too, and to be quite honest Mchale should roll with that more often because it creates havoc on the defensive end while resting Harden…

 

[Peep Game]

Agreed. I'd love to see this team 100% healthy and clicking leading into the playoffs, but if it isn't one injury, it's another Mostly a good game tonight. D-Mo worked Hibbert, and even though I haven't paid much attention to Hibbert this year, I wasn't expecting for D-Mo to basically counter anything Hibbert did. Harden played like the MVP again, but I did see some fatigue from him, and I'll say it again, he needs some type of rest. He's having to give too much of the load every night. Other guys need to step up more consistently and lighten his load.

Prig scoring

Dorsey, 25minutes, 0 points.

you'd think that with the addition of Brewer, Harden would be getting some much needed rest… but nope, Mchale gotta understand that Harden needs his minutes limited. We need him 100% come playoff time… Good game fellassss

^610 (and I assume other media outlets) attempted to run with the story of Harden/Dwight being contentious over Dwight coming back, when the article clearly states the opposite

610 is the absolute buns of sports radio. They're a corporate machine and all their takes, stories, and pretty much everything imaginable come from the higher ups.

 

[bonafide hustla]

that article......

 

[Peep Game]

:x :x :x

 

[pums]

Cmon Bev

 

[markangelo]

no one is holding down that pg spot for us 

Pablo/Terry?? no thanks

maybe it's time to give Johnson the green light 

 

[pums]

I believe in Prigs he can play defense (obviously not as good as Bev)and shoot it and can be a better facilitator.I'd like to see more Harden/Brewer/Ariza lineups especially in the playoffs though no need to further burnout Harden in the regular season unless he makes a push for the MVP.

 

[bonafide hustla]

We should be able to plug beard in seamlessly at the 1 on the offensive end. and have Brew/whoever else guard the 1 on defense.

 

[sole searchin]

Waiting on this Beverly news. Boy gets so much hate, especially this year with the declining defense but man, say what you want he's. It scared. He'll take the shot, he might miss, but he'll take the open shot.

He knows his role and hopefully he's not out the whole year.

Anyways, can yall season tickets holders update us Houstonians on playoff tickets?

i got my playoff tickets by renewing season tickets. i'm not sure how they'll do open selling for the playoffs yet

Yeah. Trying to go in for next season also. No more upper corners so will go with a row 2 upper sideline. I usually don't have any problems getting playoff tickets but was just asking since season ticket holders get early dibs/promo codes.

Appreciate it.

 

[do work son]

i think come playoff time it won't make too much of a difference because we'll be rolling out more of a lineup of:

harden brewer ariza jones howard.

smoove/prig/terry/ and maybe kpap gets some burn? i hear he just got buried but don't know why.
