    I'm sort of expecting a L.

    On the road, on the end of a b2b as well as a game that went OT so expended a lot of energy, Philly didn't play last night so they are sitting at home ready and hungry for wins and they know they are seeing a good team so they'll be playing at 110%.

    Another trap game. Our guys are going to have dead legs. Jalen's time to shine and show his worth.

    CBS Sports apparently loves our Rockets. Tonight is a good time to show that they aren't wrong!

    NBA Power Rankings: Rockets, Grizzlies feasting in West, Lakers take a tumble amid losing streak
    "Despite Fred VanVleet nearly gouging out the eye of an official in Saturday's loss to the Blazers, it was another great week for the Rockets, who now sit just one game out of the top spot in the Western Conference. Alperen Sengun put up his third triple-double of the year in Tuesday's overtime win against the Wolves, while Houston is fractions of a point away from being the league's best defense."

    We are the best defense no matter what a fraction of a point says. Propoganda reported. @Os Trigonum

    In last 76 game, Zubac scored 16 points and grabbed 12 rebounds over Yabusele. Zubac is a smart player, but Alpi is even smarter. He’ll find a way. He can dominate Yabu with his basketball IQ. In the previous win against the Nets, Jared McCain stood out. Recently, he has been making a significant impact alongside Maxey. If we can establish consistent shooting and deliver strong perimeter defense, I don’t think we’ll face too many challenges. Hopefully, it will be Sheppard’s day.

    If it's an ugly ass loud court that blinds the eyes of the viewers at home, then yes, it's a cup game. Otherwise no.

    Put Tari on him to slow him down. We need a big defensive performance from him. He can turn defense into offense so easily on the break and tip in around the basket, even when his jumper is off. He should close the game.

    Just don’t play down and embarrass ourselves like the Texans did against the Titans. Let’s take care of business. Put in Holiday if b2b legs are gassed. It’s the holidays after all. Unleash Tate Dawg. Get the Dub.

    I expect our guys to be pretty exhausted after last night's OT game.. so hopefully those guys on the bench will step up...

    Jalen Green, Reed Sheppard, Tari Eason, Steven Adams.. and for the love of god, free Cam.
