If you want a good laugh...

There a ton of hilarious threads over at clutchfans, but a few really stood out.

We still have hope in this series, though. I can see Carmelo coming here and carry Rockets to championship.

Why would he want to come back to New York with mediocre roster? I think it will be between Chicago and Houston. In my opinion, I think it's Houston.

I'd prefer we go after Kevin Love first. I like the idea of being a contender while also still being a young team. Melo should be Plan B.

And then there's the astounding thread about Mo...

If I was Howard or Asik I think I would "accidently" land an elbow on his forehead and bust him open in game 5. If he doesn't show respect, give him a few stiches. He picked out the rookie to run his mouth to. What a chump.

This entire series has made me despise Portland beyond belief

McHale should sent Powell in next game to kill him.

Sure, Powell will be arrested on the spot for murder, but at least the Rockets sent a message.

Williams is ****ing LUCKY we're not Chicago. He would get gunned down on the way to the arena.

I'm telling you man, rockets fans are entitled as fk. It's so obnoxious. They seriously act like Houston is heaven and everyone wants to be there...

What in the world is this? In what world would the Hawks do this trade? How would that help them?


oogie boogie
Am I the only one who would like to see an Asik/Millsap swap? I dunno, melo is one of my favorite players but I dont really like the fit. I'd rather him play the three spot than the 4

 

[Natebishop3]

I hope they do get Melo. It would be HILARIOUS to see Harden, Melo, and Dwight argue about who gets the ball.

yeah. I'm not reading anymore of that just like I refuse to read the blazers game threads.

"fixed" "bad call" "fuck these refs"

No thanks reading stuff like that lowers my IQ.

refs were equally bad both ways. Missed calls both ways. Don't know what some are smoking but they need to share.


Err this thread was pretty cool though props to the OP for providing an update.
I'm not good with computers anyone know how to post that image on these forums?

Nothing will top this gem:

Especially the comments where they view Portland as a doormat, "that's why they trade LMA."

"Asik for LMA makes so much sense for both sides."

I like this response:

But this shot looks like he was just carrying the ball. Is there a shot of his foot right after the ball left his hand?

Does he think Mo Williams is doing the electric slide? When you put your foot down, it doesn't go any further out of bounds.

About the refereeing, I'll just say this: These two teams have played too hard and too well to deserve this kind of shitbag reffing.

It's some of the universally, worst officiating I've seen in years and it gets magnified because both of the teams are so evenly matched - and it's been about equally awful both ways. Some might argue that that balances things out, but no, it just makes one of the best series I've seen in years, more about the refs than the two very evenly matched teams battling it out.

Yeah this has that 1998-99 Utah series vibe all over it. It's sooooo exciting, but my heart can't take anymore.

This.

It's sad that the officiating (and now Sterling) are the story of the playoffs league-wide, and not the game action.

3 things I learned from ClutchFans:

1. Morey is like Jesus to them... Don't get it.

2. Refs are horrible... Even though Dwight and Beverly get away with nearly everything and Harden gets to the line by snapping his head back anytime someone is near him.

3. Everyone wants to play for them and Lin is Lucifer 2.0.

Morey is good, probably not Jesus "good" but definitely Pope Francis "good"

2. Refs are horrible... Even though Dwight and Beverly get away with nearly everything and Harden gets to the line by snapping his head back anytime someone is near him.

The refs are awful ... just equally awful both ways.

3. Everyone wants to play for them and Lin is Lucifer 2.0.

Don't know about the first bit, but the second bit looks pretty spot on.

See I don't get this

Yes the refs have been bad.

But they've been bad for both teams. One team claiming the other is benefiting from the refs is dumb imo

And Wes is being allowed to play Harden tough, just like Beverley/Howard are being allowed to play their guys tough. It's going both ways, so I don't get the constant bitching I read on here about this.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

See I don't get this

Yes the refs have been bad.

But they've been horrible for both teams at different times. One team claiming the other is benefiting from the refs is dumb imo

I agree. I'm trying to point out their blindness to the shit they benefit from.

I see what you're saying. It's kinda like when fans constantly blast and nag on a certain player when they're "down" but not giving them props when they're up and playing big for their team??

When was the last time I bitched about Batum?

You guys are obsessed over this

And now you've successfully derailed a thread at made it about me. I bet everyone is happy about that.

I suppose I should start making threads like

"Thanks for listening Nic"

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Derailed? LOL.

Responding to my comment does nothing to prevent such a "derailment".

Have you read through those threads? I don't think the OP is earning points in those threads, if you have read them.

BTW, don't derail this thread!

There are a group called LOFs, which I later figured out stood for "Lin Only Fans".

Also, they really are angry about the evenness of the foul shooting. They continually bring up that they averaged eight more foul shots per game than their opponents during the regular season and for these four games have shot approximately three fewer than the Blazers this series. Therefore, they must be getting jobbed. Yep, that's the depth of their analysis.

Okay, that was pretty funny.

I just want to know why Robin isn't allowed to hold his position against Dwight when he catches in the post...Its like that whistle flies but then nothing when Dwight clenches his fist and throws a backwards elbow, punch, forearm to the man. I'm ready to see some MMA shit out there next time Dwight offers up an arm so easily...grab that shit, flip him over and make him tap out. Then stand over the top of his whimpering body and give him the classic FPS tea-bagging. I mean, they were going to eject you from the game anyways for fouling...might as well make it foul.

I swear Howard popped Lopez with an elbow to the head twice in the opening 5 or so minutes of the game, yet Lopez is the one who ended up with 2 quick fouls. Anyone see a clip/highlight of that? Of course TNT didn't replay it, so I couldn't tell if there was a clear foul or not. If Dwight has 2 in the first 5 minutes (rather than picking up his 2nd in the final minutes of regulation), that changes the game completely.

Also, on that "bad call" on the out of bounds off of Dwight. It didn't hit off his knee, but from the 1 or 2 choppy replays I saw, it could have been call as off either LMA or Dwight. The ball looked like it was touching both of their hands at the same time. The spin and direction of the ball made me think it was off of Howard, but I couldn't tell for sure. It definitely wasn't some horrible call like all the Rocket fans seem to make it out as.

 

[LuckyShot]

Yes. Early in the game Howard elbowed Lopez pretty blatantly on his way to a missed dunk. Looked like Shaq's go-to move in his heyday.

Yeah, that was one of them. I forgot it led to that missed dunk. I'm sure the Rocket fans think it should have been a foul on Robin for getting in the way of Dwight's elbow.
