    Agreed with Brooks thinking he's Kobe with that fade away and that weak@ss floater from Sengun and failure to catch a wide open pass because he panicked. He should have put Amen or Tari on Lillard. One great take is that I enjoyed the officiating and no calls for both teams.

    I would have preferred Eason in the last few minutes. Brooks was getting beat badly by Dame in the 4th.

    You would rather have Jabari in? Dude was a non factor the entire game. Atleast Brooks had 18 points and started the momentum for us in the third. I don't blame Ime for trusting the players who have performed. Brooks was playing extremely well on our 5 game win streak

    Were you a third string QB?

    Passes 5 feet over someone’s head are typically not considered “extremely catchable,” lol.

    Yeah, Brooks has to hit that. It would've put the game away.

    Why u blaming him? He was open in the middle that drew the defenders towards him which led to alp being open

    Brickari was available. I mean, at least his bricks are hitting glass or net. Easy for amen to rebound.

    Man I bet Dillon wants that open three back. But I don’t know what he was thinking when he forced the next shot. Completely unnecessary

    Why couldn't Brooks just make that 3....

    We were 9/31..... was 10/32 too much to ask of the bball gods?

    Dude you literally hate on Ime every game forum. If we had you out there this team is worse than if we had Silas

    Or just semi close to reliable. Shooting 28% from 3 on the back end of a back to back is a loss. You need some shots to fall.

    I love me some CF but the history of this board is radically overrating our own roster. This is a team playing above its talent right now. They’ve bought into offensive rebounding and defense. That’s why they win. But if they need some shooting, look out. Don’t have it. And that’s exacerbated on the back half of a back to back.

    Yeah I agree it was a good game regardless. 2nd half of a back to back and away against a "good" team.

    I do acknowledge the record. It is a vastly talented team but with major flaws as well. Nothing has changed other than they can win 55 wins and lose 3 playoff games in a row.

    A lot of those NBA teams do not really care about the regular season and it shows.

    Most of the offensive plays in clutch time, the Rockets didn't look composed. They were sped up and not fully in control leading to failed execution and bad shots.

    This. He missed that open shot, it happens but that muddy attempt was inexcusable
