    This exactly. It was astounding last night how haters last night were showing in real time how they have no understanding how +/- works.

    Sengun comes in -16. Amen unforced TO followed by a DeRozan ISO jumper on Brooks. The boards: NOW HES -18!

    Then Amen with another TO leading to Kings fast break. The boards: OMFG NOW HE’S -20!

    This. I don't mind "arguing" with other Rockets fans about Rockets players. People coming in here of other states/teams is some low T Reddit ****. Don't ever be that guy.

    Tari was there but not really? Why is Jeff Green playing? Do you idiots actually watch games?

    So, if the officials are rigging games, then why watch at all? You watch because you don't really believe that. Just know it's easy/fun to blame the officials for the Rockets many failures. If you think it means the fans are engaged more, when whining about officials, then great. As you say, it's better than feeling your team just sucks, then you can't even blame the officials with straight face.

    Udoka is a great coach in your opinion? Just asking.

    Tough loss, but our guys fought til' the end. Just have to chalk it up to a back to back without Fred.

    Would have much preferred the W, but I can't be mad.

    We fought hard towards the end. Jalen showed out. Tari Eason actually played basketball!

    Few things went wrong to close the 4th. Amen had two horrible turnovers on inaccurate passes. Sengun missed a FT while Kings hit 13 in a row. 3 close calls went Sacramento's way.

    Considering we were down our starting PG and PF, and were on the 2nd night of a B2B, and the Kings have been playing great lately, I ain't mad. On to the next one.

    Tari and Jalen were so clutch. Refs were on their b/s though.

    I really do not care what sports teams you like. I find it sad that this is what you choose to spend your time doing. Trolling on another team's web site. does your "wife" not give you the attention you need? Find some friends, get a hobby, or touch some grass, but acting like a 12 year old online is not it.

    I haven’t been psyched about his D in general lately but last night was the wrong game to criticize. I thought his D was good. Sac hit a lot of ISO’s on Rockets perimeter players. Monk was getting where he wanted without the pick and roll, to where Sengun had no choices at times but to move up to defend him and leave Sabonis open or play Sabonis and give Monk the shot. The plus minus was very misleading and that happens sometimes.

    My issue with him is his atrocious shooting. Honestly the Rockets need to fire their shooting coach like yesterday. And Sengun needs to become obsessed with practicing his shots, including FTs.
