    Should have brought Sengun in to start OT, we were horrible on offense in the OT.

    Great comeback though.

    When the game is fast is when Tari (and Amen) went off. I agree. Fred and Jalen came in and it slowed to crawl.

    Sengun should have had an opportunity in OT, especially after Dillon fouled out.

    He was pouting on the bench the entire 4th quarter even when the team was on a run. Everyone else was cheering besides him. The Rockets are better defensively when they go small, that lineup deserved to finish the game. But Fred and Jalen should’ve stayed on the bench. Maybe Alpi should’ve played in OT.

    SOFs have ruined this board. You only root for one player instead of rooting for the Rockets. Crawl back into whatever hole you came out of b**** boy.

    Agreed. He's not there yet. Some act as if he is, but he's still not an All-Star. Not saying he has to be Jordan, but he can't just go 2-13 either.

    Yeah, people talk about how Alpi slows the offense down…not really? He can play well at any pace, especially while healthy.

    FRED VAN VLEET is the reason why our offense is slow. He seems incapable of playing uptempo ball

    He never subbed out Amen too, that was odd. Amen was dead tired and he never gave him a breather.

    I think also a good thing I saw is Jabari is definitely getting more confident in his shot. 39% from 3 tonight is excellent, took too many, but I like to see him not hesitate with his shot. Open is open and shooters shoot, so shoot.

    Amen has to get a consistent three... they were giving him incredible room to shoot... if he at least gets confident in his 3, they will have to play him up and he can blow past his man for a dunk

    Fred had a wide open wing guy on the break in OT and held the ball then decided to pass to that same left wing. The decision making and speed off the dribble is too slow. That’s why it takes so long to get in their offensive sets. The warriors press only worsened the late offensive sets

    Amen almost hurt himself because he was so tired. Luckily it wasn’t a big ankle sprain or anything, but damn…

    It looks, that Udoka got Problems with Şengün. 14/10/4 in 20 minutes is not so bad, that you been benched! How did Jalen ot FVV deserved to play the OT?! It looks not fair!
    Amen and Tari was played very strong! Udoka needs to be benched

    Your SHOOTING guard was 2-13 and that’s a regular stat for him
