LOL. Rocket fans are the true soccer moms.

Again.

So fucking what? EVERYONE is hurt this time of year.

You didn't see our fans on other teams' forums making excuses for Dame earlier this season.

Realize I was responding to a post that mentioned Harden bricking 3s.

Yeah, he's going to brick a lot more 3s when the wrist on his shooting hand is sprained. I honestly don't have to make excuses for this team, they've played through injuries all season and are still a top 5 team in the league, but be real here for a second. His shot is going to suffer with a sprained wrist on his shooting hand, obviously.

Hahahah what calls did they not get? Refs let Nurk away with an obvious foul but that was only because they called a phantom one a few minutes earlier.

Btw you like how I remember that? You know why? Because that's the only call we got.

Houston shot 1 more FT than we did. 4th quarter we had 1 team foul

Lillard knows what's up when he says Nurk "has it". That killer instinct. That spin move on Nene was NICE!

Yep, and then you have Shaq giving him mad props which is pretty special when you consider how hard it is as a center to get recognition from him. He doesn't normally say good things about yo ng centers because he usually measures them against himself.

Portland is not the same team and is probably a top 10 team at this point.... record be damned.

Nurk changed the whole identity of this team, he's special. He's still kind of raw and already has an above average skill set to grow from. He has single handedly brought a fire and excitement back to RipCity. I'm not sure that a lot of people understand just what we have in Nurk. I'm calling it now, he will be a top 3 center in this league in the near future.
 
I hate Harden

Dude we have a guy playing with a broken hand. Our C we signed last year didn't play a single minute. Our other C just had shoulder surgery. Dame's been battling ankle injuries all year. If this dude can jack up 13 3s, his wrist isn't all that bad.

Just want to step back and remark at how amazing it is for an opposing team's fan to come in here and whine about injuries on our forum. Lmao. Just reinforcing my opinion of the whiniest fanbase in the league

If his wrist hurts so bad, maybe he shouldn't jack up 30 shots.

We were the best team in March record-wise!

I don't want to jinx anything, but Nurk's Blazer numbers Per36 are shockingly close to Bill Walton's 1976-77 Per36 numbers...

Harkless did a great job totally overplaying his left hand and forcing him to go right. That caused Harden to cough up the ball. Is his right wrist injured, too?

ET had a weird game. On one had he took 2 shots, but both were 3's. That has to stop.

But he played tough D and had 5 assists in 19 minutes. He needs to keep playing IMO to see if he can play better with that wrap on his hand by the time the playoffs start. We need his D on Klay. But it is frustrating to watch him struggle right now.
