    It was all good until 7 minutes left. Tried everything on Edwards it didn't work. He would have made them blindfolded.

    It all happened so quickly. Nobody shot poorly. Green took the most but he was on fire.

    Lol they're not trading Ant.

    Sorry Clutchfans I think this is all my fault.

    I told my wife the other week that we are locks for the playoffs and something would have to go really bad for us to fall out.

    Something is going really bad.

    Yes the reason the Rockets lost is because Reed freaking Sheppard didn’t play 40 minutes.

    Give me a break.

    This was foretold when I said before the first Nets game that we'll go 0 for the week.

    17 mins with 3 pts, more turnovers than assists, if that was green u would have been btching nonstop. stop being disingenuous.
    Reed sucked.
    cant even rely on him making 3s.

    Sengun absolutely abused on the boards. Ability to “box out” doesn’t help when you can’t jump and you’re outmuscled to rebounds. Another area in which he’s way overrated. Honestly it’s pretty laughable that he got in the all star game over, say , Sabonis, who is a far superior rebounder, more efficient shooter, and every bit the playmaker Sengun is. And Sengun’s defense is ok, the difference between his D and Sabonis’ ain’t that much.

    Jalen played ok but he was afraid to shoot in the 4th qtr. He was passing up shots. Ant is not afraid to take shots

    Yeah, losing those Brooklyn games are what hurts more.

    Losing games when Brunson and Edwards go nuclear, it's whatever. You deal with those.

    I'm still not scared of that team, they are actually better without Randle and I'm not sure that team realizes that.

    Green was doing head for head with Ant , the difference was when they packed the paint to stop his drives Green passed and players didn’t make shots and we still was up 6 til Ime sit starters for that dumb ass lineup

    Reed, Cam, Tate, Amen, Landale lost us the lead and gave up multiple 3s/ layups

    Just to think, if we'd only hit one more free throw we'd win by 10 points

    We had more turnovers than made shots 4th quarter. Unbelievable.

    bro the team defensive rebounding is so bad. the guards need to help. Amen is an awful defensive rebounder.

    Yep. Just a coincidence that Rockets longest losing streak is without FVV.

    Ant is also 5X the player Jalen will ever be.

    Rockets are trash team now.

    When the horrible Nets beat you twice in a week, you know It.
