vs Guests

[Venti Quattro]

Should be a good one, I expect Houston to win tbh

[djohn2oo8]

For some reason other than the standings, I hate them and wanna murder those fucks. Crucial game though.

[Double-Up]

We better win...

[timtonymanu]

Houston wins this.

The guest fan nowhere to be found.

[djohn2oo8]

We better win...
This. Wouldn't be surprised if they drop it.

[Robz4000]

Rooting for the Guests here...

[MeloHype]

Anyone got a stream?

[POPownsJackson]

Anyone got a stream? goto firstrowsports.eu is where I watch all euroleague basketball game tey is have NBA game too.

[spurraider21]

first row is well known... any non league pass owner should have it bookmarked :lol

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

Lets go Guests!!

[timtonymanu]

Going for the Guests too. Then I'll probably change my mind when they start whining to the refs again.

[sook]

slow start. need to actually try, rockets look uninterested.

[sook]

early games are the death of us :lol

Looks like the 1st half against Orlando a couple of nights ago.

[sook]

wtf do the reffs think this is? We're the rocketreffs, you give us those fouls or you don't call that shit.

[sook]

LOL NBA REFFS

[sook]

How the fuck do you call 7 Fouls in 3 minutes on a jumpshooter cupcake team like portland? :lmao

[sook]

Harden is a 2nd half player, so I think as long as it is within single digits going into the half we are good.

[Robz4000]

C'mon Guests, don't leave just yet...

[sook]

I don't expect a great 2nd half either. The rockets will make their push later, so I wouldn't be surprised if portland blows their wad and keeps the lead in the 1st half

[sook]

are you fucking kidding me? Worst call of the year, and a T on Mac for standing up? The fix is in.

[Clipper Nation]

are you fucking kidding me? Worst call of the year, and a T on Mac for standing up? The fix is in.
Your own medicine tasting bitter? :downspin:

[sook]

Your own medicine tasting bitter? :downspin:

CN, you're better than that. You know that there is a difference between making up calls and focring contact. Making up Ts especially.

[sook]

This is pretty bad officiating, and rarely do I complain about the officials. Missed shot clock violation leading to 3, waive off a legit shot by the rockets, call a T for Mchale just getting up, missed open hacks all game.

Fuck these power hungry mofos.

[angrydude]

That last no call on Lin. Couldn't have been more egregious. Leads to a tech when they complain. lol

[sook]

That last no call on Lin. Couldn't have been more egregious. Leads to a tech when they complain. lol

Yea I don't get how you could be an NBA official and be that bad at your job. Some of those were obvious like the travels and 24 second violation.

[Robz4000]

Who's the officiating crew for this game? The refs last night for the Spurs were pretty horrendous.

[Clipper Nation]

Who's the officiating crew for this game? The refs last night for the Spurs were pretty horrendous.

Couldn't have been worse than the Clipps/Hawks refs, the amount of late whistles on both teams were ridiculous.... it was like they had never reffed a game before....

[sook]

Who's the officiating crew for this game? The refs last night for the Spurs were pretty horrendous.

A bunch of youngins by the looks of it, the quick whistles before the play even finished or contact was made, missing obvious travels, hacks, 24 second violations, phantom Ts.

[Robz4000]

Couldn't have been worse than the Clipps/Hawks refs, the amount of late whistles on both teams were ridiculous.... it was like they had never reffed a game before....

There've been a few crews like that all year tbh. The NBA is putting emphasis on speeding up the game but all these new policies are slowing it down.

[Staplepuffs27]

Mike and mike are the worst announcers in the NBA. Makes it so hard to even remotely cheer for the Blazers.

[sook]

Mathews on fire.

[lakerhaterade]

Oh so the Guests shoot well against other teams not named the Spurs. Nice to know tbh

[sook]

blazers have played a perfect game on their end so far.

[Chris16]

It's official: The Clippers and Spurs are the best in the West right now, I knew Houston was gonna lose an important game sooner or later, they don't have the experience to consistently face the pressure of these kind've games yet.

[lakerhaterade]

:lol:lol

[Clipper Nation]

At this rate, tschlong will be making his reappearance from his exile to the Blazers forum :lol

[Clipper Nation]

Oh so the Guests shoot well against other teams not named the Spurs. Nice to know tbh

Just like with the Spurs, every fluke shot the Guests chuck up goes in against us too :lol

[sook]

It's official: The Clippers and Spurs are the best in the West right now, I knew Houston was gonna lose an important game sooner or later, they don't have the experience to consistently face the pressure of these kind've games yet.

oh so teams have bad games?

Thanks for the enlightening comment dumbass :lol

[Chris16]

oh so teams have bad games?

Thanks for the enlightening comment dumbass :lol

Except OKC and Houston are ISO jump shooting teams. OKC got lucky the year they made the Finals because their shots were falling and the Mavericks, Lakers, and Spurs weren't good defensively, the Spurs defensive nowadays would shut down the 2012 Spurs. Once OKC got to the Finals their jumps shots stopped falling and took a 5 game backdoor sweep.

The real dumbasses were the ones saying that Houston were Finals bound. They're Finals bound as long as they avoid the Clippers. :lol

[sook]

Are you a fucking retard? Go look at points in the paint.

I'm not wasting my time. And NOBODY said houston was finals bound kaka

[Venti Quattro]

I'm not wasting my time. And NOBODY said houston was finals bound kaka

They are always destined for the #2 seed

[Chris16]

Are you a fucking retard? Go look at points in the paint.

I'm not wasting my time. And NOBODY said houston was finals bound kaka

Paints in the paint for who? Houston? W/ the exception of Dwight Houston's offense revolves around the 3. Besides Dwight has a history of struggling in the paint against decent front court teams.

And people were saying Houston was Finals bound, just because you didn't say it doesn't mean no one did.

[Clipper Nation]

Are you a fucking retard? Go look at points in the paint.

You're actually getting outscored in the paint so far tonight, tbh....

[sook]

You're actually getting outscored in the paint so far tonight, tbh....

I know that, he was making the claim that the rockets are an iso jumpshooting team, so that is a reference to the entire season.

You're smarter than that CN.

[sook]

They are always destined for the #2 seed

:lol tru

[Chris16]

You're actually getting outscored in the paint so far tonight, tbh....

Thanks brah.

And Portland are a small ball playing team, that's kind've alarming.

[Chris16]

I know that, he was making the claim that the rockets are an iso jumpshooting team, so that is a reference to the entire season.

Meant they live and die by the 3, that's what prevented Dwight from winning a ring in Orlando. OKC are simply a jump shooting team because they don't really have a consistent inside scorer.

[313]

Thanks brah.

And Portland are a small ball playing team, that's kind've alarming.

Kind've?

[Clipper Nation]

I know that, he was making the claim that the rockets are an iso jumpshooting team, so that is a reference to the entire season.

To be fair, you're dead last in percentage of points from 2-pointers but 7th in percentage of points from 3-pointers and 3rd in percentage of points from free throws this year....

You're also last in the league in two-point rate but first in three-point rate....

[Gummi Clutch]

Thanks brah.

And Portland are a small ball playing team, that's kind've alarming.
You have to have the IQ of a watermelon to extrapolate from one game over the entire season of basketball to make that claim. He is right, the rockets are not an iso-jumpshooting team, watching portland right now they look like it as their PF shoots jumpers all day.

Deflection :lol .


You know that the claim of the rockets being a jumpshooting team is complete bullshit :lol. By that logic the clippers would be a jumpshooting team too and the spurs..and blah.

Points in the paint and a post presence that a team goes to during significant posessions blows that argument out of the water.

Do they rely heavily on the 3? Absolutely. But thats not the same as that retarded statement.

I don't necessarily agree that the Rockets are just a jumpshooting team, I'm just saying that from some of the team stats, it's not hard to see why some people might assume that....

[sook]

2 pt game bitches.

[Robz4000]

:lol Guests choking on a bag of dicks

[Double-Up]

:lol Guests choking on a bag of dicks

My nigga...

[Clipper Nation]

Guests trying to break Lawler's Law :lol

[Robz4000]

My nigga...

Harden is det nig, tho he lives at the charity strip a bit much for my tastes.

[sook]

Are you kidding me?!?!?

THAT WAS A FUCKING REACH

[D-Wade]

Some pretty good games today.

[sook]

And if you like to call us foodstamps, look at how many FTs portland has shot for their last 15 points :lol

[Katherine Robinson]

The Trailblazers are the epitome of a "guest team". From #1 seed to a few games out of the top 8.

[Robz4000]

And if you like to call us foodstamps, look at how many FTs portland has shot for their last 15 points :lol

Refs have been favoring both teams this season, but in the end Houston is the hotter ticket.

[angrydude]

The difference is going to be that 3 that came after the shot clock violation.

[sook]

The difference is going to be that 3 that came after the shot clock violation.

that was such fucking bullshit.

[Bulaien999]

Lin with the bads per par

[angrydude]

Lol, of course its lin who screws up at the end.

[D-Wade]

I like Beverley's game. That could be Houston ball right there.

[sook]

off of williams hand.

[sook]

But like every other call htis game, its not going to be in our favor.

[Robz4000]

This game is a perfect example of the Blazers' season for the past few years tbh.

[sook]

same shit all game.

[angrydude]

They gave that to portland, but then overruled that Howard tip-in????? lol

[angrydude]

lol. Blazers chocking. Playoff preview

[Robz4000]

same shit all game.

Don't worry, the Guests will find a way to complete the choke.

[sook]

They gave that to portland, but then overruled that Howard tip-in????? lol

Like I said, I always go off on the rockets because they could have done better but this is the most inexperienced reffing crew I've seen. Just pure garbage.

[sook]

HARDEN!!!!!!!!!!

[angrydude]

Damn.

[scanry]

BEARD nicca tbh.

[Juggity]

damn, harden hits it.

[sook]

YOU AINT GOING TO STEAL THIS ONE FROM US ZEBRASSS!!!!!


Watch, another bullshit call going Portland's way now, referees have to cover their sspread.

[Clipper Nation]

:lol Guests

OT will be a foodstamp parade for Harden, imo....

[sook]

Portland is going to the line. I'm calling it right now.

[AussieFanKurt]

don't you need to inbound the ball within 5 seconds?

[Robz4000]

:lol Beard shitting on Guests

[angrydude]

if that had gone in....:wow

[AussieFanKurt]

rockets commentators going on about how no close calls going in favour of rockets.... parsons holds ball for 20 secs to inbound and say nothin

[Johnsyounger]

Fools gold vs fools gold tbh

[Double-Up]

Good ass game so far win or lose...

[angrydude]

Now everyone is going to foul out in OT.

[Double-Up]

Fools gold vs fools gold tbh

[angrydude]

Lillard is first to go.

[angrydude]

There goes beverly

[Robz4000]

Rockets get more Rin action

[Clipper Nation]

For all the whining from Rocketfan about the officiating, the Guests have been called for more fouls than Houston and the Rocketrefs have shot more free throws than Portland, just saying....

[sook]

CN, comeon I assume you're watching this game?

We were playing in the paint and a lot of those were intentional fouls. Portland plays from 5 FT out, they shoot jumpers all day.

[Johnsyounger]

Dallas going caca all over Indy:downspin:

[Clipper Nation]

LaPussy with the brick :lol

[Johnsyounger]

Lol every play iso Harden wtf

[Captivus]

D12 saving Harden's ass!

[angrydude]

Just a jump-shooting team joking as usual.

[timtonymanu]

I was hoping Houston would lose, but it's fun listening to how butthurt Mike and Mike are.

[noob cake]

2nd seed, we are coming mother fuckers!

[AussieFanKurt]

matthews aint sleepin tonight

[sook]

Lol every play iso Harden wtf

Not a good posession, but he is the reason we are in this game look at his statline. He had 18 pts in the 4th qrtr alone.

41 pts 10 asists 6 rebounds 6 steals.

[Captivus]

How can shoot a 3 in that situation.
Linsanity got this!

[sook]

HOW THE FUCK DID THE ROCKETS WIN

[Robz4000]

Harden terrifies the shit out of me tbh. Spurs need to avoid Houston at all costs.

[Captivus]

3pt contest!

Why did you quote this after OT and not during the end of regulation?

[sook]

:lol Guests

I'm not religious but I think the lord gave us that name for a reason.

Rockets didn't lead the entire game till the last couple of seconds :lol as guests start leaving just like guests

I rarely stay in game threads, thought yall would know this by now. I show up at the end to talk shit or accept the shit talk majority of the time. I wasnt active anywhere else on this site during this game since it had started.

[Robz4000]

you're seriously gonna try and play it off as if im one of those people that only show up after a win?

Yes

[sook]

They do show up regardless of winning or losing, you guys have to give them that.

We rocket fans don't pull TSchlong shit

[GuerillaBlack]

Only caught OT. Beard nigga should be getting more MVP recognition.

[sook]

Only caught OT. Beard nigga should be getting more MVP recognition.
He's 4th, thats good enough and fair IMO.

1. Lebron (Durant should be here)
2. Durant


3. Blake
4.Harden.

It only matters with top 2, but Harden is getting recognition per NBA.com's rankings for the MVP

[Robz4000]

They do show up regardless of winning or losing, you guys have to give them that.

We rocket fans don't pull TSchlong shit

Ya I'm just fucking around :lol

[Robz4000]

Now which one of you Rocket fans is gonna start the Blazers: choke like faggots thread?

Wow, that was incredible. The atmosphere in the crowd really added to it.


Just to chime in, the Blazers are the epitome of a cupcake team. Do they do anything but shoot jumpers? Its almost a recipe for choking leads

[LkrFan]

Sweet game, sweet play by beard and the gang
Who is that in your avatar s:wown?

[Killakobe81]

Only caught OT. Beard nigga should be getting more MVP recognition.

I will say in this stretch for sure. Harden, Blake and Noah have come on as George has struggled. 3rd spot open tbh.
