ClutchFans Game Thread: Lakers @ Rockets 5/1/2026 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 6)

Laughing stock of the league.

Another Rockets season ends at home. That's how many in a row now?

No Luka, no excuses. Period. Point blank

 

The root of the problem is the absolute garbage spacing due to Amen and Sengun.
It's time to get rid of Sengun honestly. He's a diva, can't defend, and he will never be Jokic.

 

We’re back to the only untouchable be Amen. We just really got fkd in our tank years. We never got that guy and now we’re kind of in no man’s land.

 

no offense but we’re the REAL problem for being fans of this shiit hole franchise

 

78 points. Lowest scoring game of the season. (91 was our previous low)

35% FG (2nd worst FG% game)
18% 3P (2nd worst of the season)

 

Over/under a game and a half sounds about right.

 

What a sad ending, and at home.

 

42% overall and 32% from 3 for the series

 

Hey, back to back years, we made the old dogs feel inspired for a series, made LeBron and Curry remember what it felt like to be young, and that’s worth something

 

I better not see any sh*t about Reed having an “illness” after this performance tonight

because unless this dude had a severe case of pneumonia, there’s no excusing the garbage he presented this game (pretty much this entire series)

 

If someone wants to play Amen as a faster Draymond Green then I'm all for it.

 

I personally give Reed a pass for his first legit post season experience...

Amen needs handles and a jumper, Jabari lacks Ball IQ, Sengun pirouettes in the post to only get stuffed by the rim or turns it over. And Ime rep as a legit coach got exposed as his lack of in-game adjustments really cost this team. Stone has to be fired this offseason. The Rockets are gonna be relegated to purgatory of being irrelevant in our own division. The team played very hard tonight... But to continue to get punked at home by the visiting team is getting really old.

Major changes have to happen. If you think you can't be better with KD... gotta trade him else where. We would've been smoked if Luka was playing as well. Everyone has to be on the trading block. I would start with the GM and coaching staff immediately as this is unacceptable.

 

Never hire a home breaker coach. That means he knows he ain’t **** so he has to be a shady vulture off other people’s good thing. This was the red flag that should have made us pass. I was and still am all in on Sammie. Sammie would be an amazing coach. It’s crazy he hasn’t been given his chance yet. Billionaire NBA owners are daft and like dumb ass metrics I guess.

 

Agree and he's been injury prone lately and has become a Diva. If we dont win first year he's here he's gonna be out and take our picks with him. We need to hit the reset button. We werent ready to be contenders and Ime was trying to force us there and this is the result. Get rid of him go younger and we'll be fine.

 

Ayton was the #1 overall pick in the 2018 NBA draft

• luka Dancic was #3
• Shai Gilgris Alexander was #11

 

Why go after another big name we need to get back on track and follow OKC, trade big names for picks and build through the draft and smart moves and to do that we need to get rid of stone

 

Giannis “ClutchFans wet dream, give up the farm, instant favorites” Antetokounmpo is 1-9 in his last 10 playoff games, hasn’t won a series since 2022! In the Leastern Conference.

thunder fan. wanna watch them eviscerate Lecommie & the Fakers

 

that's the reality. both can't co-exist and neither is good enough to build around on their own. we should full rebuild again, i just don't know if i have the stomach for it.
