    this was a dog fight. Tell me the last time the Rockets held the Warriors to less than 95 points and won.

    I’ll answer you. 2018

    If it all plays out to where Dillon and Bari are our fourth and fifth options as the starters we going to be trouble for the league…….. we may already be


    Consistency out of our first second and third option seems to be the biggest determinant in our outcomes at the moment.


    or sticking with the Tabasco theme, when you’re hot you’re hot, when you’re not you’re not

    I understand that we don’t have a consistent perimeter scorer / play maker. But why in the hell are the Rockets so bad at wide open 3 pointers?!

    Could have won this game with ease if we made some shots and stopped turning over the ball every other possession.

    Glad we’re going to Vegas though

    Both teams under 100. That's 90's Rockets/Knicks ball brewhaha.

    **** Steve Kerr right in his endgame wide open mouth

    eta: why is Kerr's nose so red in the postgame? It ain't Christmas yet, is it?

    I mean WIDE OPEN. Just don’t hit em. It’s crazy they win regardless.

    Seeing that look on Currys face at the end of the game makes this less corny.

    I want the audio of him saying this as part of our pregame video leading into player intros. They should repeat him saying that line no less than 666 times over this song for repeat throughout ETERNITY

    Ime still needs to get a feel for the game -

    Bari starts hot (make FVV feed him) put him on same side as Alpi if you going to feed Alpi in post

    Jalen goes on a run of 6-8 points straight and then he sits

    he has to break his standard rotations - our offense is not good enough to sit hot hands

    I don’t remember him saying the refs were atrocious when they missed KD being a full city block out of bounds against the Harden Rox a few years ago.
