    Rockets were up 33 points midway through the 4th quarter when Amen got injured.

    Can we kidnap Ausar and train him up to impersonate Amen?

    Sengun went down for the season almost exactly one year ago on exactly the same 64th game of the season (363 days ago, on march 10th 2024) (Record 39-25 this year, 29-35 last year).

    Hopefully Amen is back in time before the playoffs, but I'm not mad at Ime. Injuries happen.

    Also it's 60% blame on Ime and 40% blame on Amen. What was he doing attempting a shot when he only needed a rebound? Sometimes stupidity happens

    I'm not going to take anything from this yet other than he's getting an MRI and left in a boot. Let's hope this is just them being careful.

    It is stupid to play for a triple double. Dumb on the player and coach hopefully a lesson was learned that it was not worth the 1 rebound.

    You can't stop injuries from happening, you absolutely can do your best to prevent players from getting hurt.

    He didn't do that tonight. There was zero justification for him (and others) to still be on the court in a game that was decided.

    Fred, Amen, Reed. The Rockets literally have no point guard. And no, Jalen and Holiday are not point guards.

    This one hurts. Regular season ends in 5 weeks. Hopefully it's not a long stretch out.

    Very important that everyone gets this postseason experience.

    We were pushing pretty hard in the ClutchFans playback room for Ime to sit everyone with 10+ minutes left up by 32 or so. I absolutely think it was unnecessary to leave everyone in that long.

    But it's easier to criticize Ime if this had happened with everyone in the game. Because he left just Amen in to go for the triple-double, it's a little tougher for me.
