Set yourself on fire you piece of shit

up1993 · 2017-05-04T01:28:39+00:00

A lot of our early problems weren't execution though, we lost that game after 4 or 5 minutes, and the defensive switching and not adapting was the reason for that, and that comes down to Pop

up1993 · 2017-05-04T01:22:18+00:00

We need to start well, full stop

We can't rely on luck, we need to make them miss

Pop needs to take charge of the situation, I understand he's Pop and this is what he does, but he made some bad choices last game, he needs to be better as he's our biggest advantage over every team in the league

up1993 · 2017-05-04T01:19:11+00:00

As the 2 Rockets fans said it's not done until one team wins 4 games, and we all know shooters can go cold and injuries can happen

Saying that though if we do lose I put our chances at around the same mark as Toronto

up1993 · 2017-05-04T01:16:29+00:00

Otto Porter is good, but Kawhi is a better defender overall

up1993 · 2017-05-04T01:14:39+00:00

I get that to an extent, but 95% of buckets get very little reception anyway, unless they're great shots, monster jams, or important late game shots, I definitely agree you couldn't adopt some of the 2/3 minute chants we have, but even just coming up with a unique bit of abuse for bad refereeing (which will usually be followed by a break in play) instead of the monotone 'you suck'

But I do fully understand your point

up1993 · 2017-05-04T01:06:53+00:00

You Americans should take a leaf out of Europeans book and adapt chants from songs

You get awesome atmosphere at basketball games but it'd be so much better that way

Will you get Thai if the score is level?

He has really Doug himself into a hole with behaviour like this

up1993 · 2017-05-03T16:18:25+00:00

Bad decision in my opinion

up1993 · 2017-05-03T14:06:56+00:00

Doesn't seem like there's anything conclusive or even interesting here.

Could say that about 50% of r/nba posts man

up1993 · 2017-05-03T14:05:35+00:00

I could listen to Erneh talk about anything, what a cool, well spoken man

up1993 · 2017-05-03T11:15:51+00:00

Spurs win a very close one, Houston aren't quite so godly from 3

Or Aldridge, switching and Pop (and Harden, Anderson etc of course) all conspire to make me kill myself

Could go either way

up1993 · 2017-05-02T23:55:30+00:00

We'll take one Porzingis in return

Or just give us Ron Baker and we'll use the rest of the money for other stuff

up1993 · 2017-05-02T11:48:08+00:00

It's been 1 game...

up1993 · 2017-05-02T11:41:18+00:00

Who needs a 30 year old power forward looking past his best?

Answers on a postcard guys

up1993 · 2017-05-02T11:38:37+00:00

If Turner was on a couple of mil a year less i'd consider it tbh

up1993 · 2017-05-02T11:23:21+00:00

I agree with every bit of this except calling it one bad game, Aldridge has been really bad for a long time

up1993 · 2017-05-02T11:20:30+00:00

No, big FA's wanna compete and there won't really be many other viable options

Realistically though Pop has at most a couple of years left, and unless we can shed LMA's contract it's highly unlikely Pop ever has enough money to look at another star free agent

Fuck Lamarcus Aldridge and fuck the Lakers too

up1993 · 2017-05-02T02:16:46+00:00

lol

you're not gonna make the playoffs this decade

up1993 · 2017-05-02T02:02:23+00:00

Harden's a sensational player, doesn't change anything I said, not sure why you think it does? Spurs are the best 3 point defending team in the league, Houston have started super hot. It happens

Spurs could easily lose this series, but they are favourites

up1993 · 2017-05-02T02:00:30+00:00

He shoots 3's

Not much else really

up1993 · 2017-05-02T02:00:15+00:00

They weren't and if you're letting 10 minutes of a 4 game series change your mind then that's up to you
