    Amen was amazing and what a shot that was :cool:

    By the way, I just realized that this conversation about Sengun has become very divisive for our community. What are we going to do about Sengun? Will we be able to come to a conclusion without insulting each other? If yes, when?

    Why no coach challenge?

    Ime doesn't know when he should use his challenges. He is just terrible at it. All normal as a sophomore head coach.

    It is divisive and I admit that I have a stance concerning his 3pt shooting, defense and rebounding.

    I can't speak for others but I love the Rockets, ALL Rockets. But we have to be able to speak on our players shirt comings and what we see, without it being viewed as an attack.

    I have stated some of the same things about Jalen Green and I do not get the same backlash, only Sengun.

    No player is perfect but to be viewed or looked upon as a FRANCHISE PLAYER you have to be able to effect the game on both ends of the court. Especially at the center position, where you are the last line of the defense.

    Its SO weird being down 28 and yet feeling like we were kinda robbed...

    The FT disparity
    The jump ball called a foul
    The "shooter jumping into the defender" calls (at least 3 against us on obvious intentional offensive player moves)

    Don't get me wrong, we had a crap first half, and really f'd around too much in the final few minutes.... plus Sengun's missed FT, all the chances were there. It just somehow still seemed so winnable after being in a place where most teams would call it a night. Argh.

    It’s one of the more difficult decision to made.

    Roughly a 25% that you win the challenge and a jump ball.

    Roughly a 75% that you lose the challenge (with no TO left) or the jump ball (must foul with even less time left).

    It's MORE serious than that, ******brain. Geez, some people really don't get it.

    For those of you who DO get it, you who are the hope and future of CF, here is a resource that is helpful:

    That’s bc everything that needs to be said about JG has been said the reality speaks for itself along with the numbers. The smart ones know that. The dumb ones don’t. It’s that simple.

    clap that lol

    Yeah I hate losing players who play dumb and are constantly inefficient. You like them. That’s a you problem.

    don’t get mad at others who like winners. You should be mad at yourself actually


    Always complaining. Not really. Just a dumb assumption bc youre a JGOF. I’ve loved how so many of the other young guys have clearly taken steps forward. Sengun. Jabari. Tari. Cam. You’re just upset JG continues to take steps back and isn’t in the same boat. In fact the reality of Cam taking JG’s spot is becoming more and more of the likely outcome as the games go by at only 19 terrifies you. The valid threat makes yall go into these laughable attempts to hang on

    He likely wanted to save it for that last timeout after the FT. Dunno. That play was a no brainer. There was an earlier FVV foul that he could have challenged but decided not to. I believe that was a 3 pt play when Thomas leaned in.

    Funny because nothing you say is intelligent ever. And you’re lazy. And u use that dumb word a lot probably because you don’t have anything intelligent to say or you have an inability to articulate your thoughts. Or maybe u were called dumb all your life? Hey bud take care and deal with whatever shi+ u got ok? Alright take care bud
