    Apparently, the Rockets lack a basic understand of it, as well. Don't think they realize that if the other team scores more points than you, they win.

    Another game of James looking slow af...this team would be much better off if he just rested when he's hurt.

    They are getting drunk and going to strip clubs spending thousands on girls win or loose. This is just a game for them.

    This game feels like a 6 game losing streak thus far..
    Rockets need some desperation in the 2nd half or else history repeats itself.

    I've said it before but there are many teams in the league that could shoot better than us if they decided to jack 40+ threes a game.
    Their rookie Kuzma is a better shooter than anyone on the Rockets squad. That's just pathetic .

    Looks like another loss unfortunately, team's just not rolling right now...can still hope the Lakers play a bad second half...ugh, not that they played a great first one.

    The Rockets have 65 points at the half and have given up 72 points. Why is ther so much talk about offense? No offense is good enough to expect 143 for a win from.

    I thought this team was different but they are fulfilling the narrative of all MDA coached teams, no care for defense. Trying not to panic yet but don't have much confidence in this team.

    Defense is the problem. 73 points for the Lakers in first half!

    The Lakers are 28th on offense. They are missing their starting C and PG. They just scored 72 points in the first half on us.
