    What went wrong in Houston? Morey alone shouldn’t shoulder the blame.

    This isn't the Chris Paul and James Harden-led juggernaut of last season. This game was so miserable to watch, I can't even really make a determination if it was good defense or just horrible offense.

    The Minnesota Timberwolves made the biggest statement of the post-Jimmy Butler era Monday night, recovering from a 19-point deficit to deal the Houston Rockets a 103-91 loss at Target Center.
    Minnesota stormed back after falling behind 62-45 at the half, holding the Rockets to just 29 points in the second half and just 9 points in the fourth quarter.

    Thibs/Minnesota held Pops to 9 points in a 2nd Q just 5 days prior.

    fwiw: extra sad thing, Minny was 0-10 in games when they were down by 10 -- that is, a team previously with zero comeback in them.

    Watching the wolves telecast and going through their comeback from 19 down was downright miserable.
    I was watching in a public place and people around me think I was going through a breakup. :(

    Put Bobby Brown on the floor next to Steph, Durant, and with Draymond Green pinning all of the defenders on screens and he'd score 60 in 3 quarters.

    Rockets, a professional NBA team, gave up too much for CP3, making it ALL Morey's fault. Morey is a horrible gm

    Amazing/embarrassing that actual Rockets fans believe the narrative.

    Goes to show just how effective the media is.

    Huh? This was an observable event. The ref literally waved his arms to indicate that the 3 was no good, even though he also called a foul during the act of shooting.

    Lmao, there’s a lot of media bias against the rockets, but you don’t have to create a narrative for something that has physical evidence of occurring.
