    Y’all think bspn or bleacher even brings this win up? All they did was make fun of Christopher vs Young.

    He should be highly sought over to be honest. 43% 3 pt shooter on high volume...strong defender..shows up in the playoffs. I want him on any contender besides the Warriors.

    Such a crazy good game. Atlanta bent and then broke in the 4th. Our pressure was relentless. Major props to Silas for not pulling the guys off the court who were winning the game late. I kept waiting for him to do it, and he didn't. Maybe he learned something tonight. I hope so. As if the Hawks weren't tough enough to beat, we had to fight the refs, as well. I couldn't believe they called a block on Sengun on what was clearly an offensive foul. I almost had a coronary.

    Anyone else see Trae Young scream to himself when the buzzer sounded? I know he's frustrated they let that one go. Rest of the team really blew it for him.

    How do y’all think Capela and Sengun lineup would look like?

    I said just as much as injuries because you cant use injuries as a cop out for on court play. He is wildly inconsistent and has a bad case of tunnel vision but he is a solid role guy and every once and awhile he'll light you up. I mean its just true otherwise he'd be a borderline allstar.

    It pisses me off because you see the Detroit Pistons and the Atlanta Hawks go back to their classics uniform and logo why can't we do it!?

    This team really just improves as it loses players. No Green. No KPJ. No Wood. They just get stronger. Even Nwaba looked like a different dude today.

    Great win. This team can score 140 and pull a **** show next night…..but that’s why we love them and this rebuild **** is sooo diff than any ever rockets rebuild. We have really good young studs, most these guys are going to be household names one day. I just hope we keep the right ones, I love where this is going.

    Honestly Capela is still such a liability on offense without lobs. When we denied his lobs in the 4th he didn't really do much. We also did a great job bodying him on rebounds

    We should do the classic mustard and red when they come to Houston. Well hopefully before then but especially when they come just to show them how it's done. They use the colors but the designs are ugly.

    Just look at the numbers, Sengun has taken 28 threes as a rookie so far. Simmons took 34 of them in 4 years, playing double the minutes.

    If only he didn’t have to get guarded by midgets, he would have been great.

    What's the farthest distance from TC that Bill ever mentioned on a shot? From memory, the best I can recall is "he shot that from Plano"...

    well u know he referenced the teams we went against. So that must have been a Mavs game.

    He really did mention some random ass places lol. One game in Miami he mentioned boca raton.

    Great team win. We don’t win this without the vet EG, DJ and 4th Quarter Nwaba.

    Good mix.

    Ahahahaha I was at the game and it was great!
    I've never been at the opposing team's house when they are the superior team and lose a game they had no business losing at the very end, I've seen it from the rockets end plenty of times!

    Trae: "Fuuuuuuuukkkkkkkkkkk!!!"

    The bench was going wild in the fourth quarter
    House was so amped about something security had to put him back in his seat, sounds like he was harping at an opposing player or something i dunno

    Funny sequence, Gordon gets fouled, no call, is talking to the Asian ref during a dead ball or time out, ref's like it was all ball, Gordon says are you kidding me they are arguing back and forth, the player that fouled gordon comes over and gordon looks at him and asks dude did you foul me or get ball....... they guy smirks and is like yeah i fouled him.. gordon's like see i told you to the ref. Ref goes "It was all ball" Gordon loses it again hahahah
