    If PHX loses tonight, we'll have the largest winning streak in the NBA.

    What a time to be alive.

    Okay I guess I'm happy for the win however i hate to be a Debbie Downer from Saturday Night Live but we beat the very worst team in the Orlando Magic by only two points in Houston with all of our players playing pretty good what does that tell you?

    That's scary. The fact it was at home our players played up to their expectations and we only won by two points at the last second

    I'm not a statistician or analytics person or even smart because I dropped out of school in 9th grade but that means it's either coaching or really bad defense

    I'm telling you guys we will see the real team when we play the Bucks and Hawks coming up.

    I'm not afraid of this.

    Rockets built a championship caliber team without tanking at all let a lone tanking multiple times in a row.

    All that tanking Philly did and the Rockets built a better team than they did without tanking.

    Most of the championship teams, especially as of late were not built with multiple top 3 picks.

    Hell even the Cavs who drafted LeBron couldn't get a ring his first stint there. They only got one because he was sentimental for his home and went back.

    Rockets got a top talent from the draft by being really shitty already in Green. That's enough tanking. Time to learn how to win. They have enough good young pieces where if they make some moves and get some solid free agents, with growth they can learn how to win together.

    If you look at some of the best teams in the league this is the way they were built. Not by multiple years tanking. They either hit the lotto with free agency or built a good core by making solid pickups/trades.

    Nobody is really out here tanking their way to the top.

    It tells me that this is the NBA. Every player was a star on their High Scoorl or College team.

    No way that Jalen was going to euro step around two 7 footers at the rim.

    He is not there yet.

    You must have missed the first quarter when KPJ was going off amirite?

    Hell you had to have missed the 2nd quarter too after Porter got dinged again and Rockets got spanked.
