    Nuggets up next…if they win that one too, I’m putting money down on big bets for this team

    Vegas thought they ate with that O/U before the season

    I think the refs must have had a side bet going.
    First one to call a non-blatant foul FOR the Rockets has to buy dinner after the game!

    Contenders this year, yes we are. I'm the first to say it. I really believe it. I have crazy expectations, I also believe many years from now udoka will go to the HOf Fame, he's that good. Very excited about tonight's come from behind.

    ps: I made the "we are contenders thread" BEFORE tonight's game!

    That’s why uncle Jeff is a vet. These guys under Silas weren’t developed. Give it time. Those years under Silas were wasted. Considered this the learning year

    Fred VanVleet isn’t an elite player by any stretch, but he’s a legitimate, NBA caliber point guard. That helps everyone else play their roles and focus on getting to their spots on offense. On defense, he and Brooks have the skins on the wall to hold the young players accountable for their effort.

    Yes? I think it would be great.
    Players have also gone on record saying it's awesome and how they're looking forward to the final round - and obviously there have been some really good games the past 2 Fridays - like the one you just watched.

    Maybe the inseason tourney haters can watch the game on a delay and have a multimodal generative AI erase all in season tourney visuals and audio mentions

    agreed

    get the 3 ball to 36% and get better at finishing, and he’ll be averaging at least 27 ppg with ease

    Right here, lol.
    Again it makes a huge difference when the franchise is actually trying to win.

    When winning is your priority you have solid vets on the roster instead of running a rotation of rookies and sophomores.
    When winning is the priority you run your offense through a legit NBA point guard, not some on the job trainee.
    When winning is the priority you don't waste time experimenting with pet projects and long-shot gambles.

    Udoka is obviously a far superior coach but it runs deeper than just that.

    The Thunder are on a run though.

    Teams have different arch nemesis, some match up better with teams.

    Rockets could not control Zion or Ingram this game.

    Uncle Jeff is the ideal mentor for Tari Eason. He should work and learn from him.

    Agreed. FVV after the game said it had more of a playoff like feel to it. Games have been fun so far.
