    This game in particular, for me, was just incredibly frustrating BECAUSE we were close to winning despite having a bad night from our top two guys.

    Bad nights happen against good teams, but Ime has shown since being here how stubborn he can be. Tonight he made the wrong move too many times and it cost us.

    Shittalking coming from a dude who named himself after one of the dumbest sportswriters ever (combined with a good band) I wouldn't worry about too much ;)

    Honestly can't find a silver lining this game. We lost both games against contenders in the West and KD has been bad in both of these games. The guy who is supposed to carry us didn't show up. Awful game by Sengun as well. Reed, Amen, and Jabari did all they could. We really need our stars to show up in these games.

    Our 21 year old top pick had a career high against the 2nd best team in the NBA and you can't find a silver lining?

    So did Steph curry and he missed them also. I guess Steph curry sucks!! LOL

    Jabari was 5-11 from threes. He’s not gonna make every single one of them.

    I actually agree also. I’ll take a healthy Houston team over Denver in playoffs.

    Some people don't cope well with losses. It's a long season yet every game this place acts like it's the last game of the season lol. I don't know how some of these guys cope on a daily basis. Just riding lows and highs I guess.

    Nah, we match up decently with Denver. Sengun and KD couldn’t play much worse than they did tonight and we were still in it. We will be fine.

    We can't beat any good teams when both KD and Sengun only get 13 pts.

    Not having a pure SG is causing us some problems filling in the gaps when Sengun and Durrant just don't have it.

    Don't care about the loss column enough, they looked puzzled out there when Jonas and Nikola were out there.

    A purely helpless look.
