    We were very fortunate the refs didn't screw us this game down the stretch.

    Also, props to Tate for showing up and playing with the much needed energy. Kinda disappointed with Cam, feels like he really doesn't contribute much outside of the occasional hot streak.

    Hardest stretch of games and we went 4-0 so far. Even the homerest homers couldn’t have imagined.

    Hunter was the one who took the shot.

    He deserved at least 5 techs for flopping. Dude is unwatchable. The wind knocks him over.

    How he wasn't benched this game is mystifying.

    There was about 6 seconds on the clock and it was quality shot so I have no issue with it. I rather a quality shot than a last second grenade

    There is no need to single Jalen out today. Whole team was awful except Jasean Tate.

    Right I’ll take the win for the record but the Rockets have nothing to be proud of from this loss… I mean win

    It was hilarious hearing the main Hawks commentator falling over his seat at every flop with how much Trae was 'fouled' with no call from the refs.

    Him not backing down on the one where he tripped himself with no involvement from Amen was crazy.

    The irony is any shot from Jalen is a grenade.

    They can be proud of their depth.

    Stay ready crew Tate, Holiday and Landale get little to no minutes but don't complain and give 100% when called to play.

    Lucky Hunter didn't hit the three.
    Better lucky than good. I hate back 2 back games

    I hope we don't just sit tight at the deadline. We have these long droughts on offense near the end of games because teams tighten up and we don't have a go to play or closer. In the playoffs we can dominate the whole game but if we have droughts with 5 minutes left the other team isn't going to suck ass like the Hawks. (Also the refs like to screw us too)

    Dude took 24 shots to score 25, and had turnover every other possession.

    he had a bad game and it’s ok to acknowledge that
